Personal Liability
Creditors are still very aggressive in trying to hold indivdual owners liable for corporate debts. In 2012, our firm reprsented a business client sued by an aggressive creditor. The creditor sued on the basis of a "personal guaranty" signed by the business owner. We were successful in winning the case and absolving the individual business owner of the debt. The lesson is, of course, that business owners should review and understand the importance of each document they sign. As a creditor, you must insure your "forms" are correct and that they are completed accurately and properly. Contact Paul Andrew or Raymon Burns for details.
