Common questions about Business Law in Arizona
Answered by Arizona Attorney Search Network
What is a buy-sell agreement?
A buy-sell agreement is a contract among co-owners of a business specifying what happens to an owner's interest upon death, disability, divorce, retirement, or voluntary sale. Common structures include cross-purchase (other owners buy the departing owner's share), entity redemption (the company buys it), or hybrid. Buy-sell agreements typically address valuation methodology, funding (often via life insurance), and triggering events.
What does the Arizona Corporation Commission regulate?
The ACC under Article XV of the Arizona Constitution regulates incorporated entities (filings, annual reports), public utilities and pipelines, securities offerings, and railroad and utility safety. Business entity matters include filing Articles of Incorporation/Organization, accepting service of process, and maintaining the public corporate registry.
How long do business contracts have a statute of limitations in Arizona?
Written contracts: 6 years under ARS § 12-548. Oral contracts: 3 years under ARS § 12-543. UCC contracts for the sale of goods: 4 years under ARS § 47-2725. Open accounts: 3 years. The clock starts when the breach occurs (or, sometimes, when it's discovered). Acknowledging the debt or making partial payment can restart the clock under ARS § 12-508.
