Legal Question in Business Law in Virginia

I've started a business and had decided to bring on a partner. We had signed a agreement and had it notarized that would make him an official partner by the end of this month however I have decided i do not want to be partners with him and would like to hold off on moving forward with doing anything with the company. He is now threatening me. However he is not invested in this company at all. Does he have any legal rights to my company? The company has not made any profits not does it have any secured business lined up

Suggest you talk to an attorney who handles VA business/tax law matters. Information will need to be assembled and carefully reviewed for a proper analysis. An experienced business/tax law attorney in VA should be able to handle this type of matter and to protect the interests of the client. Please note that, in accordance with the VA Code of Professional Responsibility for Attorneys, a signed engagement letter is necessary in order to engage my legal services. I can be of any help to you or people you know, contact me as I would be pleased to provide tax/legal support.

Sincerely,
