The contents of corporation binders are documents that meet legal requirements for your business. Corporation Binders also contain records that are critical when dealing with matters like court proceedings, raising capital, contracts, taxes, and accounting, transferring ownership, as well as the rules and policies of your business. The corporation binders includes:
Articles of Incorporation or Organization
The articles of incorporation are a legal document that solidifies the presence of a business entity within a state. The term articles of incorporation are assigned to a corporation, while the term articles of organization apply to a limited liability company (LLC). Along with corporate by-laws, the articles of incorporation outline the jurisdiction of a corporation, as granted by state government. The Articles of Incorporation typically include the name of your corporation, its purpose, the type of business it is, the address for the physical location and the address for where the mail will go (registered agent), the number of shares or members, and the by-laws of the business.
Corporate or Company Seal and Book
The Corporate or Company Seal is the signature of your business as a separate legal entity. The seal is used to create an imprint on official paperwork like legal documents and contracts; leases and agreements, employment and vendor contracts, loan documents, minutes, operating agreements, and other company records. The company seal may also be used to authorize and legitimize stock or membership certificates. Having one makes your business stand out as more professional to any possible investors.
Corporate or Company Minutes
Company or Corporate Minutes is the term used for the notes that a secretary writes in and of the meetings held by the board of directors, owners, members, officers, or shareholders. A secretary or assigned person will write a record of every decision, outcome or resolution discussed in that meeting as “minutes.” The company minutes may be required in significant business matters such as IRS audits, raising capital or borrowing money, by an accountant to prepare taxes or by an attorney in court proceedingsâamong many other affairs. The company minutes also help improve communication and decision-making among members or shareholders.
Corporate By-Laws or LLC Regulations
Corporate By-Laws (also written as bylaws) or LLC Regulations dictate the set rules of a corporation. Owners or members typically establish the by-laws during the initial process of incorporation or organization. By-Laws direct those in authority in their duties to overlook the corporation. Someone will be appointed to enforce those By-Laws; watchful that everyone is performing their duties accordingly and notifying them if they arenât. A meeting should be hosted periodically to review the By-Laws and amend them if necessaryâand meet the companyâs needs at the time. Anyone in the company can make suggestions to change a particular element within the By-Laws, but one should state how many people are needed to make an amendment and if an officer is required. Every business requires rules and guidelines in which to operate, regardless of type; LLC, Corporations, Non-profits, Partnerships. Business entities have coinciding titles for By-Laws; Partnerships have what is called a partnership agreement, LLCâs write an operating agreement, but the constituents are similar to that of corporate By-Laws. By-Laws are a complicated legal document and not something you should try to do yourself if you arenât well-versed in its many legal complexities and implications.
Membership or Stock Certificate
A stock certificate (or membership certificate) is a legal document declaring that you own shares of stock (or membership) within a company or corporation. A stock or membership certificate certifies that you are the registered owner of a certain number of shares or a percentage of the company, transferable only by you, and organized under the laws of the state. Stock or membership certificates are usually created with complex art designs to keep them from counterfeit reproduction. It includes your name, business name, an identification number, the number of shares or percentage of ownership, the company or corporate seal, and signatures from authorities such as the president or treasurer.
Preliminary Name Search
The name of a business must abide by all state requirements and be uniquely distinguishable from other business names. If starting a limited liability company; LLC, Company, or Limited Liability Company has to be present at the end of every business name, and canât contain the words incorporated, corporation, or itâs abbreviations (Inc. or Corp.). If you use a name that is too similar to a name used by your competition, that business may accuse you of a trademark violation; you might be forced to choose a different name and may even have to pay monetary damages. Part of our complete corporate books and seals includes, at no additional cost, our attorneys performing a preliminary name search and helping you find and choose a name that avoids any possible legal penalties.

An S Corporationâlike a C Corporation and Non-profit Corporationâhave different names for the documents within their Corporaion Binders: Corporate Seal and Book, Articles of Incorporation, Corporate Minutes, Corporate By-Laws, Stock Certificates, and Shareholders.

These decisions are carried out by the president of the corporation and officers such as the secretary and treasurer.
