The number one reason Corporations and LLCs fail
to protect their owners and officers is the failure to properly
maintain formalities. When the courts "pierce the veil," they
assign liability to individuals for actions that the Corporation
or LLC has taken. Most of the horror stories that you hear
about involve the courts attaching the personal assets of the
directors or stockholders for failure to maintain proper
formalities.
A creditor only has to show the court that an
owner has routinely ignored many of the corporate formalities
the law requires to gain access directly to the shareholders
personal assets.
Record keeping becomes even more important when
a Corporation or LLC has just a few stockholders. The corporate
records may be the only things to prove that a one-man
corporation is not simply acting as the individual.
