In virtually every area of legal practice, some knowledge about the laws governing business associations proves helpful. This survey course examines the laws governing the modern American business organization. We will cover a number of topics, including rules of agency law, partnership law (general partnerships, limited partnership, and limited liability partnerships), corporate law, and LLC law. For each type of business association, we will discuss its legal nature and the rules associated with formation, governance, fiduciary duties, and termination. This is a survey course, so many of the topics we will discuss also have specialized courses offering a more detailed treatment. Consequently, our main goal will be to understand the structure of each topic, how the topics interrelate, the role that organizational law plays in regulating relationships among the parties, and the ways in which it interacts with other areas of law.
