Hello All,
I am new to this board and have a question.

My wife has a company (GA) but we currently live in CT. She is hands off in regards to the business and I do all of the work. Since I do not want to be known as her husband who "runs" the business I use my middle name as my last name, on all documents, emails, phone calls, etc. When there is a true legal document or partner agreement that needs to be signed my wife will take care of that.

Is it legal to use my middle name in business and am I protected under the corp in any legal matters?

When there are sales, all checks are cut under our corp name.

Hope to hear from you all soon.

Regards

Every state has different laws regarding this. I would suggest that you speak with an attorney regarding this to discuss what your legal responsibilities are and to make sure you are protected. You can locate an attorney through the attorney locator on Lawinfo's home page at http://www.lawinfo.com/. Some do offer free consultations.

Well I am sure everystate is different, but I posted in GA so I am a "GA" business. So if anyone can help please let me know.
