Frequently Asked Questions
If a corporation fails to keep Annual Meeting Minutes as required by law, it could jeopardize its status as a separate legal entity. In a claim made against the corporation in a court of law, it would be within the right of a judge to hold members of the corporations personally liable.

Most states require corporations registered in the state to keep Meeting Minutes in their records. The exceptions are Nevada, Kansas, North Dakota, Oklahoma, and Delaware where corporations registered in those states do not have to keep Meeting Minutes at all.
Yes, you do need to hold an Annual Meeting and record the Minutes even if you’re the owner and only employee of a corporation.

One day you may not be the only shareholder, director, and employee.
Perhaps the best tip is to use a template that will keep you on the task. Another valuable tip is to keep things as simple as possible. You can dispense with the use of legal and industry jargon as it is preferable to capture the essence of what took place in a straightforward manner.
