      <image:title>Blog - What is the Difference Between Fractional General Counsel and Traditional In-House Counsel? - Instead of paying an in-house legal department to work 40+ hours a week when there is not 40 hours' worth of legal work for the attorney to perform, the company can pay a fractional general counsel for just the hours needed to complete the company's work. However, the company has a fractional attorney “on call” that it can reach whenever a legal matter needs immediate attention.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - What is the Difference Between Fractional General Counsel and Traditional In-House Counsel? - Small businesses and startups can now have access to the experience and legal knowledge of a seasoned general counsel by hiring a fractional general counsel at a cost they can afford. By offering their services on a part-time basis, attorneys serving as fractional general counsel for companies continue to provide exceptional legal services, but they do so for several companies simultaneously.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Legal Problems Your Start-up Should Avoid - Trademarks and copyrights are two of the most commonly used protections. They apply to symbols and written works, and need not be registered to be used. However, if a legal dispute occurs regarding brand identifying symbols or ownership of a written work, trademark or copyright registration would be helpful when litigating your ownership of the item(s).  Both can be registered with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and your business attorney will be able to best assist you with the process.</image:title>

Taking the extra step with your business attorney to draft forms and contracts will potentially save you and your company from costly misunderstandings and poorly defined expectations.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - [Start-Up Help] A QuickStart Guide to Starting Your Nonprofit in 2020 - Incorporating your nonprofit is very similar to incorporating a for-profit company. The first step is choosing a name for your nonprofit. The name should not be too similar to another company’s name, and it should sound pleasant when you say it out loud. A nonprofit’s name conveys specifics about the organization so you can effectively market and brand the organization. Check to ensure that the name can be trademarked. You may also want to search the internet for the name (including initials) to ensure that you are not choosing a name or including words in the name that have another meaning online.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - [Start-Up Help] A QuickStart Guide to Starting Your Nonprofit in 2020 - Having legal assistance during this step in the process can be valuable to ensure that you receive your tax-exempt status. Tax-exempt status can be a significant factor in fundraising. Securing tax-exempt status for your nonprofit means that your organization will not pay taxes on funds raised by the organization. However, it also means you can tell potential donors and contributors that their donations and contributions will be tax-deductible. Writing off charitable donations can be an incentive for individuals and companies as they consider donating money to your nonprofit.</image:title>

General liability insurance can cover losses from claims related to physical injuries on business property, property damage caused while performing or carrying out work, slander, libel, and misappropriation.

      <image:title>Blog - Parents of Special Needs Children – 5 Estate-Planning Tools That Don’t Risk Your Child’s Benefits</image:title>
      <image:caption>One of the common estate planning tools used by parents of children with special needs is a Special Needs Trust (SNT) or Supplemental Needs Trust. An SNT has standard rules about the use of the funds in the trust; however, the trust is typically easy to set up and manage. You also have several options for funding a Special Needs Trust. The purpose of an SNT is to supplement any benefits the child might receive from government programs. A correctly drafted and funded Special Needs Trust does not impact eligibility for government disability programs, including Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Reasons parents may choose a Special Needs Trust for their child include: ·           Preserve eligibility for public benefits; ·           Pay expenses not covered by public assistance and disability benefits; ·           Protection of assets from creditors; ·           Name a trustee who continues to manage the trust and pay the child’s living expenses after the parents’ deaths;</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Parents of Special Needs Children – 5 Estate-Planning Tools That Don’t Risk Your Child’s Benefits</image:title>
      <image:caption>Anyone other than the person with special needs can contribute to or fund a Third Party SNT. Usually parents, grandparents, and other family members contribute the money to fund the trust agreement. A Third Party SNT has several advantages. Parents can ensure their child with special needs will have the funds he or she needs after the parents’ deaths. This type of Special Needs Trust also allows other family members and friends to contribute to the needs and care of the child without jeopardizing the child’s disability benefits or public assistance. Another advantage of a Third Party SNT is that the trust may be created as a revocable trust so it can be changed or modified if necessary. Also, a Third Party Special Needs Trust is not subject to the Medicaid payback provision.</image:caption>

The party receiving the information should be required to protect the confidentiality of the information and refrain from using the information for personal gain. In most cases, keeping information confidential involves taking reasonable steps to prevent access to the information by other individuals. This section of the NDA needs to be clearly defined so the party requiring confidentiality can sue for damages if the other party breaches the NDA.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The form you choose for your business organization substantially affects your growth. If you expect your business to expand rapidly and you want to allow for the greatest flexibility in seeking outside investment, a corporation may be the best choice for a business entity. A start-up may want to choose an S-Corp, which can be converted to a C-Corp as the business grows and the need for venture capital investors increases. A S-Corp provides many advantages of a C-Corp, such as protection from personal liability, while allowing your start-up to avoid paying corporate taxes. An LLC may not be the best choice for a business entity for a start-up because it does not have the liquidity options and the full range of exit strategies offered by a corporation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Did the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Kill My Boat Deduction?</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) did not eliminate the ability to deduct mortgage interest on a principal residence and one other residence. Therefore, if the boat qualifies as a residence, you may continue to deduct mortgage interest, with some limitations. First, the boat must qualify as a residence. Therefore, your boat must have a sleeping space, cooking facilities, and toilet facilities. If you rent your boat, you must use the boat for your own personal use in excess of 14 days or 10 percent of the total days you rent the boat for fair market value, whichever is greater.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>However, a change in the tax law allows musicians to write off up to $1 million for purchases of equipment during 2018. Section 179 allows for the immediate expensing of musical equipment and assets. Instead of spreading out the deduction over five to seven years, you can deduct the full purchase price of equipment to reduce your taxable income. Therefore, if you purchased musical instruments, recording equipment, computers, audio gear, or other expensive equipment for your business in 2018, you may take advantage of a large tax deduction.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A musician’s expenses related to travel, vehicle, and meals can be a large portion of the deductions taken each year to reduce tax liability. Detailed expense records are required to take full advantage of the deductions for travel and meals. You can deduct 100 percent of the cost of overnight travel for business purposes. Therefore, if you travel far enough away from home for an audition, performance, or recording session, you can deduct the full value of your hotel room and other expenses related to the reason you needed to travel.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The standard deduction almost doubled for 2018, but the personal exemption was eliminated. Therefore, many musicians accustomed to itemizing deductions may have a difficult time accumulating enough expenses to exceed the standard deduction. When combined with the cap on some allowable deductions for musicians, you may be required to take the standard deduction in 2018 and beyond. The TCJA has eliminated all "Miscellaneous Itemized Deductions" for musicians who receive a W-2. The deductions for “Unreimbursed Employee Expenses” have also been eliminated by the TCJA. Unfortunately, W-2 musicians are penalized by the new tax code because they cannot deduct many expenses they have deducted in the past, including purchasing instruments, concert attire, mileage, union dues, membership fees, and sheet music. If you earn income on the side, filing a Schedule C may help you deduct some expenses that are no longer allowed for W-2 musicians.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The company can reimburse you through its corporate accountable reimbursement plan for business use of your personal vehicle by using the standard mileage rate or actual vehicle expenses. The standard mileage rate for 2020 is 57.5 cents per mile, a decrease from 58 cents per mile in 2019. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sets the rates annually. The mileage rate is multiplied by the number of miles the vehicle is driven for business. People driving a personal car in service of a charitable organization or for medical or moving purposes have significantly lower mileage rates.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>As with other areas of the tax code, there are exceptions to what you may count as tax-free reimbursements. Interest on a car loan is one exception. Even though interest on a car loan appears in Section 163 of the tax code as a deductible expense, you cannot receive tax-free reimbursement from the S-Corp for this expense. However, the S-Corp can still deduct the expense, and you can receive reimbursement for loan interest, but it must be done as a wage payment.</image:caption>
