Legal Answers
Q. Do I need legal document living with wife and sister in law in family home wife sister 50/50 split estate.
A: You (and your wife) need legal documents (including a Deed) to close the Estate and make sure all Inheritance Taxes were paid so you end up with clear title to the property. You should also have an agreement between your wife and your sister- in- law to manage the property. Your wife and sister- in- law will be partners after the Estate is closed and sister-in-law no longer in charge of property after the Estate is closed.
Q. I am starting an online business in PA and live in NJ. Can I use a virtual address to form an LLC in PA?
A: If you are looking to organize a PA LLC it will require a street address for the Registered Office in PA. That can be an office or something simple like a UPS Store "suite" address, or you can hire a Registered Agent in PA.

If there is a Servicemark or Trademark registration involved rather than just a name, then some additional research or planning may be required before you can proceed to file your own Mark so it does not infringe on the current Mark. ...
