I. SYNTHESIS

A. Introduction – Dr. Roger Jones

Dr. Roger Jones is a successful dentist but is experiencing recurring financial difficulties. For example, Jones owns his office building, which he leased to the professional corporation that housed his dental practice (he owns all shares in the corporation). After the corporation’s failure to pay payroll taxes for the past six months, however, the Internal Revenue Service is threatening to impound the business and sell its assets.

Also, the corporation has had difficulty paying its suppliers, owing to one of them over $200,000 plus interest. In the past, Jones had borrowed money on the equity in either his personal residence or his office building, but he has grown weary of these recurring problems and has hired a local consultant for advice.
