I''m thinking converting my wedding/portrait photography business into volunteer work; I''d no longer accept any payments whatsoever.

Answered 14 years and 4 months ago by attorney Hilary B. Miller   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Business

As a general matter, if you do not accept any remuneration for your services, you are not in business and do not have to file business tax returns. However, if, as a condition of rendering your services, you require your customer to make a payment to a third party (even if that is a charity), you are technically "in business" and must file tax returns. If a business license is required, you will likely be required to retain that. You can likely avoid this by being a pure volunteer and not requiring any payments to anybody.... Read Answer

Can my landlords wife sue me for rent not paid to her, when I am paying rent but to her soon to be ex-husband since he is who my contact is thru?

Answered 14 years and 9 months ago by Victor Obninsky (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Business
I suggest you send copies of the notices to whomever your rental agreement or lease shows as "Landlord."  You should send a copy to the wife's lawyers.  You should bay the rent into a trust account for the benefit of the legal landlord and state that fact in a letter.  You should say that you will continue this practice until you either receive a court order or directions signed by the lawyers for husband and wife,  I wish you the best of luck....

I broke a tail light of a company vehicle while working. The owner wants me to pay 500 dollars for the deductible, am I obligated to pay him?

Answered 14 years and 9 months ago by Victor Obninsky (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Business
It sounds somewhat fishy.  If the tail cost $160±, you should give him a check outlining your original deal.  If he says he wants more, offer to show him what the tail light costs at the dealer.  Try to avoid an argument because he is your boss and that is unwise.  If he holds out for more money, you have a diplomatic problem not a legal one.  I doubt an employer will get anywhere holding an employee liable for damage to a company car while on company business.  Good luck. ,...
