Create or Replace your Corporate Records

Lost corporate records or a lost minute book can be a major problem for both you and your corporation, as the corporate minute book is one of the most important business documents you and the corporation can have. Its purpose is to contain all the corporation’s important documents, such as the certificate of incorporation, articles of incorporation, along with records of important actions taken by the corporation, such as issuing shares, purchasing real estate, purchasing other businesses, obtaining various licenses. The loss of the corporate kit and minute book can be a catastrophic event for your corporation, so all possible steps should be made to keep it safe.

Corporate matters that require your corporate records

Your corporate records may prove to be an important link for a number of corporate matters, such as:

  • Licenses: Licensing authorities require corporate documentation over an extended period of time, the corporate minute book is necessary to substantiate the information.
  • Audits: Your corporate minute book may be the most complete corporate record you have, should an audit occur, its contents will probably be desired. There are situations where the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities may want to review your corporate minute book.
  • Borrowing Money: Banks must do due diligence in order to satisfy themselves before committing to lending sums of money to a corporation. The corporate minute book will be reviewed by them.
  • Investors: Many investors may want to view your corporate minute book before they invest in your company. If you cannot provide this, they may be less willing to invest.

My attorney for 30 years. They really do more than just set up corporations. I needed somebody to help me out of a serious legal matter they were able to take on the case for less than 1/2 of what the other attorney was charging me. Become a member of their Club it's like a hundred forty bucks a year and you get all the free legal advice you want. What a cheap insurance policy. I am so glad that I have them on my side.
