Ask a Question

We're buying a Fort Worth trucking company. Does its operating authority come with it?

When the buyer takes over the company itself through its stock or membership interests, the USDOT number and operating authority stay with it, because the entity is the same. In an asset purchase, the buyer may need its own authority and insurance filings, which takes time. See membership interest purchases.

Our Fort Worth aircraft maintenance shop works on customers' planes. How can it limit its liability?

Mostly through its work order terms: a cap tied to the price of the job, an exclusion of loss-of-use and other indirect damages, and a requirement that the owner's hull insurer waive subrogation against the shop. See service and vendor agreements.

What do investors check before funding a Fort Worth startup?

A clean cap table, founder stock agreements with vesting, and assignments showing the company owns its code and other IP. They also look at any earlier SAFEs or notes and how those convert. See venture capital financing.
