Maintaining the Corporate Veil
01.What is the Corporate Veil?
The corporate veil is the legal barrier that separates a business owner's personal assets from the company's liabilities. If you abuse this separation, courts can 'pierce the veil' and hold you personally liable.
02.Avoiding Alter Ego Claims
To maintain protection, you must treat the business as a separate entity: never pay personal bills from the business bank account, always sign contracts in the name of the company, and document internal loans.
