Q: Is a joint venture a juridical entity?
If a joint venture is a juridical entity, is it separate and distinct from its owners?

A: I'd say it depends on the contractual agreement. Joint is similar to 2 partners in a company.. Some partnerships have a general partner and a limited partner kjust as a joint venture can have 2 general "partners" or one general and one limited. The limited "partner" is limited to the money he/she invested in the joint venture. Read the contract between the two companies..

Q: Can I still get my share of the home my ex husband and I had a joint venture in when I agreed in the divorce..
papers to sign over my share to him? He told me that he would do the legal work with the other couple we had the joint venture with and then give me my share. The only reason I went along with this is that the other couple was very wealthy and told me they would never give me my share and would fight me in court. I asked several lawyers and they told me they would not take the case because this couple would bankrupt thier company if they tried to fight for me. I have argued with my ex over this for NINE years and he told me that he never got a dime and I should forget about it. I should mention that I am disabled and have no money and the house was worth around 6million at the time of the divorce. Well, I just learned from a member of my ex husbands family that he did get 3.6 million from the other couple. I NEVER signed ANY papers to sell this house and have no idea how they were able to buy my ex out and not have my signiture? What kind of lawyer would I need? Thank you for that answer...I did go to the court house and got the deed and it only said the owners of the house...the other couple. I had my copy of the Deed with all 4 names on it. I can't understand how they could have changed the Deed without me signing anything??? Thank you....But, in the divorce papers it states that I must sign over the house to him, I never signed. May I also add that he told me if I did not sign over the house he would take the kids out of the country and I would never see them again. He was not born here, so it could have happened and I knew that...I would never have agreed to this if I was not so scared about the kids.

A: Nine years is an important point here. You may not have much of a claim after that amount of time. A family pratice lawyer to see about the divorce paperwork and see if he is in violation is the only chance you have. The nine years is a big problem. Sorry. And good luck

Q: How could I use the term joint venture in a sentence?.... PLZ HELP?
i'm doing an assignment for business studies and i know what joint venture means although have no idea on how to use it in a sentence... any examples are fine! thanks for everyone's answers. ps- joint venture is when 2 or more companies join together to share and lose profits... example- Victoria's secret and their label pink

A: Totally made up example - you can be a bit more imaginative with real company names perhaps: Company A and Company B entered into a joint venture arrangement on the 1 November to extract iron ore from West Australia's Kimberley region. The joint venture, called company Z, will be operated from Perth and will employ 2,000 personnel in the first four years. Fred Smith has been appointed as CEO of Company Z and has 15 years' experience of managing joint venture arrangements such as this. hope that helps.

Q: How do I joint venture with very large companies?
We have a small business and our product demands that we partner with Hollywood production companies, organized sports companies, the music industry and other large players. The problem is we are a small company and we don't want to potentially get burned by these larger companies when it comes time to signing contracts, agreements etc; Is there anyone out there who can advise us re: the direction we should be going in? Any help would be greatly appreciated. P.S. If you are the person(s) we are looking for; we're offering equity positions in our company. Thanks

A: In order to enter into a joint venture with larger companies you must first peak their interest in your product/service, which it sounds like you may have done already. Your major concern appears to be the disparity in bargaining power; which is inevitably going to make any deal appear to be in their favor by virtue of them being a powerful corporation. However, if they want it bad enough, and their competitors want it too, then that could be used to increase your bargaining power. However, my best advice is to hire a very experienced business attorney, to ensure that any contract agreements are favorable to you as well as making sure that there are certain provisions that will protect you and your interests later on. Based on the sparsity of information I cannot provide you with a more detailed analysis to opine what I would do in that situation. I would be glad to help further with more info, I love this stuff and have some experience in it. Best of Luck!!

Q: How would you propose a partnership/joint venture with an existing company?
I have a patent, and I am looking to partner with a company to develop and launch it. I'm not interested in selling the patent, I do not want to manufacture and sell it by myself, and I won't be able to license the rights to the patent without further development. I have identified several companies that would benefit from being first in the market place with my technology. I just do not know what to expect as far as making any deals...

A: Best is to deal with people you know - I have a friend who tried this, and by the time the legal fees were done, the backstabbing etc, he really had nothing left for a profit. A lot of people ask family and friends for support - as in business - there are so many who are there for the power, not profit. In business as well if they develop your patent - they can win the lawsuit simply on the grounds that you cannot afford the hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees - A lot of patents are blatantly and flagrantly stolen in this way - if you can't afford to defend your patent, the patent laws mean nothing to you... in fact your better off without a patent. On the other hand - there may be a reputable company - but what is the risk... the more companies you show what you have too - the more chance of a problem. Most will ask you to take a share in the profit, once the paperwork is signed...make sure there is a time limit on the development and marketing - a timeline, and a settlement agreed on in advance ( a few hundred thousand dollars) paid by the company if the time frame is not met, if they leave your patent on the shelf - what can you do if there is nothing in the contract - as this happens so often too... the promise of a market share - then they just sit on your technology.
