Product Description
Product Description

Organizing, Financing, and Advising a Massachusetts Business addresses a variety of formational, operational, and legal aspects of a Massachusetts business entity, most of which are commonly the province of both in-house counsel and lawyers for corporations. Chapters touch on critical aspects of the choice of entity, taxation, fiduciary duties of officers and directors, allocation of interests, contracting with and compensating employees, real estate and environmental issues, antitrust considerations, the disposition of proprietary property, venture capital, and debt financing, going public, and dissolution. Designed for beginning transactionalists and business generalists, as well as lawyers with some experience tackling legal challenges across an organization's life cycle.

- Update: January 2025
  Dear Subscriber:
  
  Thank you for choosing to stay current in your practice and research with this 2025 edition of Organizing, Financing, and Advising a Massachusetts Business . Inside, you will find new material on such topics as the following:
  - Climate-related risk and the impact on business strategy. See chapter 8 for discussion of the 2024 SEC rule, published in the Federal Register, mandating robust financial and nonfinancial disclosure of climate-related risks in registration statements and annual reports.
  - Terms of the employment relationship. Chapter 5 contains a practice note on articulating the essential job functions to be prepared in the event that an employee requests a reasonable accommodation due to a disability, pregnancy, or a sincerely held religious belief.
  - Corporate tax lien waiver. Chapter 7 discusses the situation where a corporation or a limited liability company makes an election to be taxed as a corporation in the Commonwealth and the subject of corporate tax lien waivers.
  - Contaminated property. See chapter 8 for discussion of contractual obligations with regard to disclosure of contamination, as related to the availability of a third-party defense. The chapter also addresses bona fide prospective purchaser and contiguous property owners' defenses related to the ASTM standard for Phase I reports.
  We at MCLE trust that you will find this new material useful in your practice, and valuable in keeping your law library current.
  
  Cordially,
