I'm General Counsel of four(4) corporations; u poast
Poast new message in this thread
Date: January 4th, 2018 6:22 PM Author: Tripping theater stage jap 1. A mortgage company. 2. A real estate brokerage. 3. An escrow company. 4. A new corporation we formed for employees (like me) who do work for the first three corps so we don't violate RESPA.
So now this new company that we just formed is going to outsource HR, legal, accounting and IT to the other three companies for a monthly retainer.
We are going to charge the real estate agents $1000 if they want to incorporate themselves into an LLC to get the pass through tax benefits.
That gave me an idea. What if we offered the employees of the other three companies a type of "legal insurance" where we charge them a monthly fee and then I can consult with them on their legal problems, maybe send out/reply to demand letters, things like that. If I actually have to represent them in something I would give them discounted hourly rates.
What do you faggots think? |

No on takes formal legal structures that seriously bro.
Judges will even pierce the corporate veil for tightly intertwined webs of contractor relationships when there is literally no common control or ownership. |
|
Date: January 4th, 2018 6:30 PM Author: Tripping theater stage jap There is some common ownership, but they need to be separate for compliance purposes. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3849568&forum_id=2#35082449) |
|
Date: January 4th, 2018 6:32 PM Author: Talented stubborn hairy legs forum Hint: When they are separate for "compliance purposes" you don't get to count them as separate companies for these purposes. Go ahead and include them on LinkedIn for documentation purposes, but you can't go around saying it socially.
Also -- have you looked into your atty-client relationship with each entity? If they're not common ownership there's a problem for you being paid by the company that employees you and providing legal work as an employee for that company, for the other companies.
Make sure you're covered under EACH companies E&O insurance also, and/or make them pay for yours.

Date: January 4th, 2018 6:42 PM Author: Tripping theater stage jap The problem we had was that there were eight employees who all were employees of the mortgage company, but did work for all three companies. This could be construed as a RESPA violation because the mortgage company gets referrals from the other companies.
It could be seen that we were providing legal, accounting, HR, and IT services in exchange for referrals which would be an illegal kickback under RESPA.
We created a fourth corporation to employ these people, including me. So now the mortgage company, RE brokerage and escrow company will pay this new company a monthly retainer to outsource these services.
We are not only charging the sister companies FMV for the services, but we are going to offer our services to other mortgage companies, RE brokerages, and escrow companies and charge them the same rates. |

Date: January 4th, 2018 8:23 PM Author: Overrated zippy faggot firefighter headpube "We are going to charge the real estate agents $1000 if they want to incorporate themselves into an LLC to get the pass through tax benefits."
There are two problems with this statement/idea, neither of which Chilmata appears to be experienced enough to pick up on.
Hints:
One is linguistic and not a problem for practical purposes, but anyone that has done even the slightest bit of entity formation law should catch it immediately.
The other deals with California tax law, and Chilmata should know it to be GC to four whole corporations. I will grant him that if the real estate agents hold leveraged real estate property through the business or are in sufficient danger of being hit by a judgment, it may be a necessary cost. Otherwise he's just throwing away other people's money. |
|
Date: January 5th, 2018 1:04 PM Author: Tripping theater stage jap I don't know anything about tax law.
