CORPORATE LAW LINKS

 

       To provide a list of ‘exactly’ what a corporation must do to be in compliance with the law is beyond the scope of this software but the Corporate Manager Software does provide you with most of the information you need to legally administer a corporation in a particular state or province through the following links.  To ensure that you are in total compliance you need to consult a corporate attorney. 

 

       The links below connect to the ‘primary’ documents governing corporations in each state and province.  You can not assume that these documents contain everything that is needed to be in compliance with the governing authority. 

 

Disclaimer:  The links in the following list contain information that is not annotated and as such may contain laws that have not become operable due to unmet conditions, have expired, have been ruled inoperable by a court, or have otherwise become inoperable.  The information on these web sites is intended for research purposes only.  Consult a legal professional to determine relevant laws for specific situations in the state or province of incorporation and in any state or province where the corporation is doing business as a foreign corporation.
