Legal Question in Business Law in Nevada

Liabilty

My -father-in-law owns Co.A, my spouse is DBA (Doing Bus. As) Co.B. under Co.A.

Co.A wants to sign over Co.A to Co.B lock, stock & barrel. Co.A has outstanding Credit Cards. If it's signed over, is my husband now responsible for these debts? How can we NOT be responsible for them?

Thank You.

L.B.

Given your description of the transaction; Co. B would probably end up being responsible for the debts. It needs to be structured properly to avoid this. Send me an e-mail if you want to set up an appointment.

Depends on how they are set up, how the debt is incurred and what is purchasing. May want to look into asset sale with proper notices.
