Linda Perkins Moore is a crook, and took advantage of a sick, and poor widow. Offered no real legal advice, and charged a ridiculous amount of money! I would not allow this attorney around anyone who may be going through a hardship because she also harassed this sick widow and their family for money that they could not afford to pay. This woman is nothing but a low down dirty crook! ...read more

This question often puzzles start up and small business owners. That’s because there are times when an entity is treated like a corporation by the IRS, but treated like an LLC by the state. Why is this? It’s because there are actually two different ways to answer this seemingly simple question. When people ask this question, what they are usually referring to is how the company is organized under state law. In Michigan, a company can organize as a corporation, a limited liability company, or a “low-profit limited liability company” (sometimes referred to as an “L3C”). The entity type you choose will decide the default set of rules that apply to your company. Generally speaking, limited liability companies are given more flexibility in how they are managed, which makes them the ideal entity choice for most small and closely held businesses. Corporations, on the other hand, are governed by a more rigid set of default rules, which is ideal for companies with a mix of active and passive shareholders or companies that are looking to bring on additional investors in the future. Choosing to be governed by a limited liability company does not mean you have to be taxed as a pass-through entity. Under what is commonly referred to as IRS “check the box” elections, an LLC can choose to be taxed as a c-corporation, an s-corporation, a partnership, or a sole proprietorship—all the business owner has to do is make sure they meet the IRS classification requirements and fill out the appropriate form. Thus, a business can be an LLC for state governance purposes, but a corporation for state and federal tax purposes. Contact Mr. Roberts today to set up a free legal consultation. ...read more

Detroit, MI - Macuga, Liddle&Dubin;, P.C., an experienced environmental class action law firm, is announcing important information for Rockford, Illinois flooding victims. On February 13, 2014, a Winnebago County Circuit Court Judge has approved a $2,500,000 class action settlement between the City of Rockford and Rockford residents who suffered flooding on August 7, 2007 from Keith Creek. (Case No. 07 CH 1069). Judge J. Edward Prochaska approved the settlement which involves more than 500 homes that suffered flooding in the City of Rockford, Illinois. The settlement arose from class action lawsuits filed by residents against the City of Rockford seeking compensation for property damage and clean up expenses as a result of the flooding of their properties water from Keith Creek. The Complaint alleged that the August 6-7, 2007 flooding occurred because the City of Rockford’s negligent maintenance, operation and/or design of Keith Creek and the storm water sewer system. The impact of this flood on the residents was significant. Many basements were completely filled with flood waters; foundations collapsed. According to the settlement, each approved claim will receive a pro rata share of the settlement based on the amount of their claimed damages. “This case confirms that properly maintained storm water sewer system should not flood homes during a rain event,” said David Dubin, lead counsel for the homeowners. “This case should send a strong signal to municipalities that they can and should be held accountable if they fail to maintain or operate their sewer systems.” Macuga, Liddle&Dubin, P.C. has represented thousands of individuals complaining of damages arising from the flooding or invasion of private property by a sewer backup. These cases resulted in settlements where the defendants agreed to pay millions of dollars in damages. The firm also focuses on cases involving environmental contamination, governmental liability and complex consumer class actions. ...read more
