Mar 28, 2018

By Brian Lam and Cynthia Larose

“Privacy by design” – while not a new concept – is certainly enjoying a new spot in the sunshine thanks to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) (93 days and counting…) and its codification of “privacy by design and default” in Article 25.

Are You An Owner Or Employee? The Inflexibility of the Federal Tax Rules To Be Treated As Both.

Dec 18, 2017

By Dan Wilcox and Scott Pinarchick

Over the last twenty years or so, the limited liability company (“LLC”) has become a popular entity choice as a business entity. An LLC offers a great deal of flexibility in how it is structured and operates, including the ability for its owners to decide to be classified as a partnership, S corporation, C corporation or, if there is only one owner, to be disregarded as an entity for federal income tax purposes. Notwithstanding the great deal of flexibility afforded to LLCs, the federal tax rules do not permit a person to be treated as both an owner and an employee of a LLC that is treated as a partnership or a disregarded entity. As a result, owners of these types LLCs who are employees of the LLC should be aware of how both their salary and income are treated for federal income tax purposes.
