Determine the Legal Structure of Your Business: Gather and Analyze Information

You go to your office to begin the task at hand—the preparation of a narrated PowerPoint presentation to potential investors that will address all of the issues involved in making this decision. For critical background information, see Creating Sunburst: Legal and Organizational Considerations. You will need this information to make the best legal and organizational decisions for your business.
Since one of the investors will not be able to attend a presentation in person, you need to prepare and record a narrated PowerPoint, so she can listen at her convenience. In order to complete this task, you realize that you must do some research to address the legal and strategic implications if your business is to get off the ground.

  • What types of business organizations are available to entrepreneurs?
  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative?
  • What are the two best choices and why?
  • How would you explain your choices to your investors?

Be sure to discuss the following information in your plan (refer to Legal Forms of Business before you begin writing):

  • What are the different legal forms of business that you might consider? You remember that there are at least six factors that will influence your choice:
    • creation and maintenance
    • continuity
    • ownership and control
    • personal liability
    • compensation and division of profits
    • taxation
  • What is your proposed choice for the legal form of business? Include your reasoning based on the preceding six factors and any other relevant factors.

When your research is complete, continue to the next step, in which you will create the Powerpoint presentation for your investors.

Forensic psychology

identify at least one landmark legal case or court decision for each of these important psycholegal areas: CST, criminal responsibility (MSO), the right to mental health treatment, the right to refuse psychiatric treatment, coercion to mental health treatment, and participation in treatment and civil commitment of sex offenders.

Critically analyze the essence of the selected cases.

You may be asking what it means to discuss the “essence” of a court decision. The essence of a court decision involves two things: (1) the issue under dispute and (2) how the court decided that issue. You can usually summarize this information in one or two paragraphs. Remember that you need to identify the final decision by the highest court. Landmark cases are almost always the cases that have been appealed to higher courts for a ruling on an issue of law.

New Position Description

 
Organizations periodically need to create a new position. The need for this new position might be due to:

  • Changes in the market/industry
  • Creating an internal position for work that had previously been outsourced
  • Organizational growth that necessitates the addition of a new specialty or managerial position

I serve as the Human Resource Manager for an auto insurance company calledPremium Auto Insurance. Up until this point, the Claims Department has consisted of a small number of Claims Representatives who reported directly to the Finance Director.
 
Claims volume has recently jumped, resulting in the hiring of more Claims Representatives. You, as the Human Resource Manager, feel that a new position of Claims Supervisor is needed in order to manage the expanding claims operation.
 
I have decided to develop a proposal that I will submit to the CEO recommending the creation of this new position and providing the justification.
 
In a minimum of 2 pages, create a proposal. In your proposal, include the following:
 

  1. A description of the new position you will be creating with a list of the main responsibilities of the position.
  2. Explain how this new position could benefit the company in at least three ways.
  3. Describe how this position will work collaboratively with other positions in the company.
  4. Remember that this is a proposal. Make sure to format the paper properly for the proposal. A proposal is a persuasive document, so make sure to use proper language and tone. Remember, as the HR Manager, you are writing to the CEO so use a tone in your proposal that is specific to your audience (the CEO).
  5. Include an APA formatted title page and reference page with at least 2 credible sources. Make sure to include APA in-text citations for any information used from outside sources.
