Is there a leave of absense law reguarding absense to start or run your business?

Not in the United States.  These laws are geared toward maternity, illness in the family, etc.  If you want to start a business and wanted time off of a job where you worked for me, I would tell you to make a choice.....either you work for me or you want to be self-employed.  If you are working to get to the latter, then realistically, do this nights and weekends and build up your business to a point where you can afford to quit your day job.

You might check with the governor's office-they have access to the business licenses and doing business as, or DBA's. I haven't heard that name in a long time, but they were also active in other states.

Just about any business can be run absentee.  The key is to hire someone whom you can trust and is good enough to do all the managing for you.  And of course, the business has to make enough money to pay this manager.\n\nOne Caveat:  You can never be 100% absentee, otherwise people can take you for a ride and you'll never know it until it's way too late.  You still have to monitor what's going on from time to time, have auditors come in and check things out thoroughly, etc.

You have a case there, yes.\n\nBasically, you need to begin logging the events (a notebook with timely, dated entries are sufficient).  Also note any communications you have had with your company to get the problem fixed.\n\nYou should report the problem to the company, and the company should deal with it.  If the problem persists, you may have a claim against the company, or the individual (although I doubt that the penalties against an individual are very severe, unless the person is in a position of power.)\n\nSo work with your COMPANY to get it resolved.  Don't try to take it up with the individual.  And keep meticulous notes.

First I'd file the LLC in Nevada. Look on the net for corporations start up. They will walk you through. You can get a kit that will explain. Marketing business is safe and your LLC is just a legal thing and show growth. You can and will get preprinted by laws for the state you area LLC. I live in Va. and I'm a corporation in Delaware. We make candy. I"m foreign company to Va. Cost me $45.00 verse $1000.00. If you're good at marketing why are you waiting for Aug. Your start up will be with your funds. It's best to get first funds from friends & family you can trust.  never ask anyone that can't replace the money themselves.( Retired) Best J. kelly

Is this a serious question????  Come on man....you know that you have to pay your taxes, especially if you are self-employed.  Ignorance is not an excuse that will work in a court of law.....\n\nYou really need to know what you are getting into before running out and starting a business....really.....

I liked your answer on one of my questions and followed you here.  Muahaha!\n\nUm, it was interesting.  You have to wonder if "the law" followed that principle on all consensual agreements between people.  For instance, once you started building a house, you couldn't cancel for any reason.  Once you bought a product, you couldn't return it.  After you begin to form a company, you cannot stop the formation.\n\nThe article is food for thought.  My initial reaction is "no means STOP what you're doing right now."

I manage a law firm.  You are not the first person to find yourself in a employee / independent contractor argument.  Check out FINDLAW's section on employment law.  That will give you general overview of employee rights.  You can also look for an attorney on this site.  I suggest you contact your state bar association, or city bar association if you live in a big city.  Bar associations usually have a lawyer referral service.  Being broke usually means you can't get a good attorney sadly.  Ask your state bar if there are any pro-bono services or legal clinics, and mention that you are a vet.  Hopefully you can get some help that way.  Good luck!

I would think it would depend on whether it was "you as employee" or "you as yourself".  Ethically, any personal notes should be deleted or forwarded.  Obviously, it is technically possible.  I imagine you would be on shaky legal ground regarding use of employer's resources for your personal business.  That's just me.  I am not a lawyer.

Check with the Secretary of State. Usually, LLC's have to register their businesses.  Several states have this information online.

No. However, state and local laws may require this of businesses of any kind (usually depending on size). These are rare but increasingly popular and will vary by state. If there is a distinction made between for-profits and non-profits, non-profits are generally given more leniency.

I started my own businessabout six weeks ago.  It's a transcribing business and probably of no use to you whatsoever but the best thing you can do is to get in touch with the Inland Revenue's Help for Newly Self Employed people and they will send you out a starter pack.\n\nSpeaking from experience, the best ever thing I did was to start up my own business.  I still work full-time but work on my own business on an evenings and weekends.\n\nMaybe it would be an idea to gain employment first after you leave the forces to ensure guaranteed income prior to actually taking the step.\n\nBest of luck.

Only if you break the tax rules.  There are rules that must be followed.  Not only must you elect not to be taxed as a corporation but you must act as an LLC.  For example, you generally cannot change ownership arrangements.  Your firm must be required to dissolve on a fixed date.  There can be other issues too in some oddball circumstances.\n\nS-corporations can have an advantage over llc in that employment taxes can be different between the two.

all depends on your company and your situation, I would have a good business law lawyer go threw this with you, not some morons on the net.\n\nmy sister is a lawyer and she has told me for one of my ideas an LLC would be bad for that kind of company.

It depends what you were on the inside for. \nIf you had a business there are some people you would not like to have around.\nYou would want to be able to trust your employees.\nStart with small jobs and work your way up until people begin to be sure you have been rehibilitated
