Unlock the Power of Separate Legal Existence
One of the greatest advantages of forming a corporation or limited liability company is what’s known as “separate legal existence.” This means your business exists as its own legal entity—distinct from its owners or shareholders. But this critical protection isn’t automatic. It is only fully realized when your organization is properly established and maintained.
Without thorough, up-to-date bylaws and a corporate kit, your company may be viewed as incomplete or even disregarded in the eyes of the law. That puts your operations—and your personal assets—at risk.
Protect Your Personal Assets: The Corporate Shield
The “corporate veil” is designed to shield business owners and shareholders from personal liability. If your company faces lawsuits or debts, your personal assets—your home, savings, and investments—should not be at stake.
But there’s a catch: courts will only honor this protection if your company proves that it is truly separate from you. This means keeping immaculate records, holding proper meetings, issuing shares, and following the procedures set forth in your bylaws. All of this hinges on having a complete and well-maintained corporate kit.
Don’t let a technicality be the undoing of your dreams. Failing to finish your company’s organization leaves your personal finances exposed. In the worst-case scenario, you could be held personally responsible for business debts or legal judgments simply because the formalities were neglected.
Maintaining Corporate Formalities
In order to maintain corporate formalities, each corporation must adopt Bylaws. Bylaws govern the general governance and operation of the corporation. Bylaws include items such as the number, qualification, duties, election and terms of directors and officers. Corporate Bylaws generally include other items such as election procedures, matters relating to corporate stock, and a host of other provisions. Corporations are also required to maintain certain records such as organizational documents, share transfer records, meeting minutes and documentation of major corporate resolutions. Corporations should maintain these items in a central location. Most corporations maintain these items in an organized corporate record book, also known as a corporate kit.

It is not important that the Corporate Record Book be a fancy embossed book that costs you $100 or more. You can find plenty of those books for sale online. The important thing is that you maintain a central notebook where you place the important papers pertaining to your corporation. When putting together your official corporate record book, it is important to focus on substance over form. What you need are a good and comprehensive set of documents that are . If you have that, a simple 3-ring binder will suffice for your official corporate record book.
Our document packages are the perfect solution for a business that wants to avoid expensive incorporation service fees. Our products are similar to the Corporate Kit that you might purchase through an incorporation service. However, we focus more on the content of the documents and less on the external appearance of the corporate minute book. Corporate Kits that are sold by incorporation services generally leave you without Bylaws and other documents that you actually need to complete the organization of your company and provide you only with a slick looking notebook where you can place the actual Bylaws and other documents that you need to maintain the legal status of your company.
We strongly recommend that you have the documents that you create using our products reviewed by an attorney that is license to practice law in your state. Our forms cannot replace the services of an attorney and we are not authorized to provide legal advice regarding your specific situation.
