I have been made an officer of the company, which I understand to have some legal implications. What might those be? I am in Tennessee, should it be relevant.

  • Talk to a lawyer. They will be able to review all the corporation documents and provide you with an actual answer you can trust. Well worth the money.

    Not a lawyer, have been an officer of a corp before. The first ramification is significantly increased liability. Depending on what happens, if the company commits crimes, you could be held personally liable. You seriously need to spend an hour with a lawyer to go over the broad strokes with you.

    Asking your own bosses should shed some light. If not, Google, or better yet, a legal professional, are the way to go.
