Corporate Law Overview
Corporate law deals with the formation and operation of corporations and is related to commercial and contract law. A corporation is a legal entity created through the laws of its state of incorporation. A corporation is treated as a legal "person" that has standing to sue and be sued, which is distinct from its stockholders.
Corporations are taxable entities that are taxed at a lower rate than individuals. Until formally dissolved, a corporation has perpetual life and deaths of officials or stockholders do not alter the corporation's structure.
Corporate law is civil law generally and not criminal law. When there are disputes, the corporation’s officials can go to the appropriate civil court in order to resolve the dispute. Of course, officers and employees can still face criminal liability for fraud and other criminal acts. However, the laws that govern the formation and operation of corporations are generally a civil body of law with civil remedies.
