Why Nevada?

Nevada is the best place in America to build your business or house your estate. It is a place meaningful to the founders of Neon Law because many of us went to UNLV Law School.

📜 The Business Judgment Rule: Nevada vs. Delaware

Nevada offers stronger protections for business owners compared to Delaware. Specifically:

  • Nevada: Protects directors unless a plaintiff proves intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of the law. Courts do not shift the burden to directors in cases involving interested transactions.
  • Delaware: If a controlling stockholder is involved, the burden shifts to the board, requiring them to prove the transaction was entirely fair in terms of price and process.

A key case supporting Nevada’s pro-business stance is Guzman v. Johnson.
