Business owners often relocate themselves and their businesses to different states, typically seeking more favorable tax conditions. The growing trend of changing domicile—the legal term for a person’s permanent home and primary residence—reflects this desire to optimize tax obligations. However, if your client is a business owner, relocating their personal residence alone won’t necessarily exempt them from tax liabilities in their previous state if your client's business continues to operate there. Understanding the intersection of domicile, residency, and business operations is essential for optimizing your client's tax position and avoiding costly mistakes.

Register for this webcast, designed to help corporate and business counsel navigate common NDA pitfalls that could jeopardize deals or compromise business success.

If you are a corporate lawyer or litigator, this course is a timely opportunity to improve your fluency in pursuing or defending against veil-piercing claims and related theories, as well as understand what protections, like D&O insurance coverage, may be available to shield individual directors and officers from personal exposure.
