Robert Masud asked:


If you are an owner, member or operator of a non-corporate limited liability entity that either was organized pursuant to the statutes of the state of New York or that is duly qualified to do business in New York, time is running out. By this it is meant that you have only until May 31, 2007, to make certain that you fully are in compliance with certain new newspaper publication and filing requirements that went into effect in the state of New York.

Specifically, if your limited liability entity (LLE) either was either formed in the state of New York or qualified to do business in the state of New York between January 1, 1999, and June 1, 2006, you must make certain that your limited liability entity is in compliance. The new law permitted a grace period of until the end of May to get into compliance. The legislation requires any LLE formed after June 1, 2006, to meet the newspaper publication and filing requirement no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after formation or qualification.

The compliance process for your LLE actually is not that cumbersome or complicated. In order for your LLE to become compliant, the following steps must be taken:

1. The notice that is required of an LLE pursuant to the new law must be duly published in an appropriate weekly newspaper as described in that legislation for six (6) consecutive weeks.

2. Following the publication process as described above, a certificate of the publication together with the duly executed affidavits from the newspaper in which the notices were published must be filed.

The reality is that this process easily can require a ninety (90) day period to make arrangements for publication, undertake the publication process itself and to make the appropriate filing. If you have not commenced the compliance process we have outlined for you, you must make certain that this process is underway immediately or run the risk of becoming non-compliant.

In order to ensure that your LLE is in complete compliance in the future, you will want to make certain that you sign up for our authoritative email alerts and legal updates. If you have any questions or concerns about the compliance issues that have been discussed with you today, or any other issues regarding your limited liability entity, feel free to contact us for a consultation either by telephone or via e-mail.

When you are sick and go to the hospital insurance is required to cover the cost.What would happen if you are in a accident and need legal representation.What would you do? Who would you call to get your questions answered? How much would it cost? Can you afford it? We never think of it  until it’s upon us.

Well, I’m so glad a friend of mine thought of it and shared it with me. I work in a hotel and one of my co-workers told me to watch a dvd and let her know what I thought. Well,one evening I had free time after putting my son to sleep and decided to watch this dvd. I thought about the fact that I don’t know anyone in the legal field that I can turn to incase of an emergency. Instead of being expensive I was extremely surprised how affordable it was. Wouldn’t you feel better knowing you had someone to talk to in an emergency. These people offer a variety of service from identity theft shield, legal advise, submission of legal documents as well as they prepare documentation for you. The best part is no matter where you live someone can assist you. The company is a prepaid legal company.This allows you to pay monthly a small fee for the services and you can call at any time.

When you have a family it is important to be able to protect them. As a parent, I have enough to worry about. I don’t want to have to worry about legal representation. If my family member is wrongly accused I want to solve the problem as quickly as possible. I want to be able to pick up the phone and speak with someone who is competent and caring. Like our health you never know when you will become ill it is also important to be ready for curves that life may throw at you. Check out www.prepaidlegal.com/hub/cherise52 .

Large law firms and in house legal departments of large enterprises have enjoyed the benefits of outsourcing (quicker turnaround and lower costs) with success for quite some time in the United States.

On the other hand, small and midsize enterprises and law firms have just begun to outsource legal work to enjoy these benefits. This has become possible with a wider availability of technology at a lower cost, in addition to the arrival of a new breed of vendors who are addressing the unique requirements of small and midsized enterprises and law firms.

These vendors are providing services with better quality, by leveraging on technology and through deployment of experts in the work which is outsourced. Lawyers from India are increasingly familiar with US law and have several years of experience in doing legal work for US law firms and in house legal departments of large corporations. It has become possible to deploy experts these days due to aggregation of work from various clients, and the cascading higher volume of work.

The law firms and in house legal departments have enjoyed the benefits of a quicker turnaround time. The work left with the Indian entity at the end of their day is completed and available when they arrive at work the next day. These have become as important as the other core reason for outsourcing, namely saving of costs – law firms and enterprises have been able to save between 50 -60% of their cost by outsourcing legal services.

What work can be outsourced?

Any work that can be done without requiring fact to face interaction with clients or physical presence in a court of law can be outsourced. Some of the typical examples of work outsourced are in:

a) Contracts: Drafting, Review and management

b) Litigation Support : Discovery management, review, analysis and coding and Presentation

c) IP Rights: Search, Application for patents and defence

d) Legal and Business research

a) Contracts – Drafting, Review and Management

We prepare first-cut drafts of contracts that are fit for purpose and conform to your house style. You need to provide:

· Standard templates that conform to your house style and

· Unique variables relating to each contract

Your lawyers would still be in control over the quality of the draft and enforceability in courts of law without having to log expensive time in preparing the first cut draft.

We can handle a wide variety of contracts including contracts for:

· Sale of securities and derivatives

· Sale of goods or services

· Sale or mortgage of property

· Lease of property

· Lease of equipments

· Employment etc

We manage your contracts by maintaining a comprehensive database of all your contracts that provide:

· Contract information (Purpose, Period, Entities, Addresses, Counsel, Validity, Termination rights, Applicable law, Jurisdiction etc)

· Summary of terms

· History of notices

We maintain a summary of all obligations and covenants (to facilitate compliance) and all rights (to enforce compliance)

b) Litigation Support

Our litigation support services include:

· Discovery management,

· Review

· Analysis and coding and

To help your lawyers focus on successfully winning or defending cases.

codification and validation

We can work with your proprietary document discovery management system or any standard off-the-shelf solution including ConcordanceFYI ™ and CaseLogistix ™.
