How can I protect myself from
liability?
Liability is a major concern for many business owners, especially
for larger business which have a lot of risk. The cause for concern
is that without some type of protection, you can be personally
liable for your business’ debts and losses as a business owner.

To help protect yourself from
such liability, you can choose to organize your business as
a corporation or a limited liability company, which offer
some protection to the business owners (limited partnerships
are also an option, although they will not help you if you
are going to be actively involved in running the business).
You have to be careful
however, even with a corporation or LLC, as the liability
protection is not absolute. Business owners are still liable
for things they do which are separate and apart from the
business. In addition, the protection of limited liability
can also be lost as a result of the legal theories known as
alter ego liability and piercing the corporate veil. To help
avoid having these legal theories applied, you should make
sure that you set your corporation or LLC up properly, in
accordance with the relevant state laws, and work to keep
your company in good standing.
