    New: The Wisconsin Business Entity Handbook

    The Wisconsin Business Entity Handbook

    The Wisconsin Business Entity Handbook helps you advise clients on the best business entity structure for their specific needs and goals. It outlines the key issues to analyze to determine which structure fits the client’s unique circumstances and compares each entity type based on organizational, operational, and taxation considerations.

    Following the recent overhaul of Wisconsin’s business entity statutes, the Handbook offers clarity on:

    • Essential requirements for creating entities, including required forms;

    • Tax consequences of choosing a particular entity;

    • Necessary reporting responsibilities or annual filings;

    • Possible management and governance styles for the new entity;

    • Fiduciary duties, rights, and limitations on ownership;

    • Potential for personal and financial liability.

    Each chapter focuses on a specific entity and describes the key statutes and forms associated with it, along with links to government websites where you can locate the forms. The Handbook also provides references to other key resources you can use to expand your research.

    Recently Revised: Termination of Parental Rights and Adoption

    Termination of Parental Rights and Adoption

    TPR and the placement of children for adoption is a highly personal and sensitive legal proceeding that requires experience, meticulous attention to detail, and compassion. It also requires asking the right questions.

    Termination of Parental Rights and Adoption, from State Bar of Wisconsin PINNACLE®, has all the tools to make you successful and ease your clients through this emotional process. This book has been revised for 2024-25, including new discussions of Wisconsin Supreme Court Cases in 2024, legislative amendments that created a new out-of-home care placement option with a person who is “like-kin,” and more.

    Whether you’re a lawyer, a judge, or a human service provider, this book gives you access to insights found nowhere else, such as:

    • An overview of the law and procedure; and

    • An extensive script for TPR and adoptive placement hearings.

    This book is available in print and digitally via Books UnBound. Find out more about Termination of Parental Rights and Adoption on WisBar.org’s Marketplace.
