SUMMARY:The Corporate Transparency Act:  What Companies Involved in Construction Need to Know
DESCRIPTION:The Corporate Transparency Act is a new law that imposes certain reporting obligations on newly formed domestic and foreign companies.  The beneficial ownership reporting will be made to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network of the U.S. Treasury Department (FinCEN) and be maintained in a registry.  While the purpose of the act is to assist the government in combating illegal activity\, the government is casting a wider net covering legally permissible and innocent conduct that\, if not done in compliance with this statute\, could get those same companies in trouble.  This program will explain what the new law does\, who is required to report under it\, and what needs to be reported.  With single purpose entities and new companies popping up in the construction industry all the time\, this is a can’t miss program to stay ahead of the curve. \n  \nThis seminar is hosted by ABC Member Josh Quinter with Offit Kurman\, PA

SUMMARY:Don’t Fear the Reader!
DESCRIPTION:Do you know that reputable general contractors and construction managers appreciate when subcontractors and suppliers take the time to review and understand contract terms before they’re signed?  Well-informed contracting parties make lasting construction partners.  Construction attorney and Chapter Board Member Bob Watson of Eastburn and Gray\, PC will walk you through key provisions in the construction documents he sees and works with on a daily basis\, as well as possible solutions to difficult problems which may arise.  Even if you cannot negotiate new terms\, you should understand what you’re signing and what to look out for as a project winds ahead.  Join us in our new Hazleton office for a worthwhile and informative walk-through of the good\, the bad and the ugly of common contract language. \nHosted by ABC Member Bob Watson\, Eastburn & Gray \n  \n
