THE BUSINESS ENTITY FORMATION AND BUSINESS ENTITY TRANSACTIONS
COURSES
Prof. Gerald
Brown
Business Entity Formation and Business Entity Transactions are
two three-credit business courses that are offered as part of
the Law Offices clinical education program. Both courses
are taught with extensive use of simulation exercises. Business
Entity Formation provides an opportunity for students to form
various types of business entities including partnerships, limited
liability companies, and corporations. In Business Entity
Transactions students implement various business transactions
such as employment and consulting agreements, shareholder agreements,
and agreements in connection with the purchase and sale of a business.
In both courses, the students apply the legal doctrine learned
in Business Organizations and other courses to a series of progressively
more sophisticated simulation exercises and prepare the documents
necessary, in the case of Business Entity Formation to create
and organize the entities, and in the case of Business Entity
Transactions to implement the various business transactions required
by the exercises. In both courses the students utilize information
gathering, planning, counseling and negotiating skills in the
development of the documents.
