Do we need to issue paper stock certificates? Can electronic stock certificates be used?

No – a company can issue electronic stock certificates, or no certificates at all, if the corporation issues uncertificated shares.

In the past, actual paper certificates were used to prove ownership in a company. However, today, the use of electronic filings has largely made official stock certifcates unnecessary. It is no longer necessary to have paper stock certificates. Companies regularly issue electronic certificates or no certificates at all (through notices of issuance of shares / uncertificated shares).

I am a serial entrepreneur in Los Angeles and have hired over 20 law firms for my diversified companies within the last decade. Ms. Soofi has provided better council than any full service international law firm I have retained. She provides aggressive professional services and makes me feel comfortable throughout the legal process. She has a diversified skill set encompassing (but not limited to) litigation, IP, entertainment, corporate compliance, HR, Private equity and venture capital. Ms. Soofi has high ethical standards and makes paying for legal services transparent and frictionless. I feel very fortune to have met her and I look forward to a long term professional relationship.

Ms.Soofi Is a great Attorney. She has been instrumental in helping my family solve our legal troubles. Her knowledge and expertise provided a swift resolution to our inquiry. I would highly recommend Ms. Soofi because she is fair-minded and cares about her clients.

* * * * *

I found Rabeh to have a knowledgeable understanding of the laws as she was able to clearly explain to me how best to proceed and what the options were. Rabeh is one of the few lawyers I have worked in the past that really listens and you feel has your best interests in mind. She clearly has compassion for clients, and is honest in a way that I have never had prior lawyers be with me. I was happy with the outcome and recommend her highly.

* * * * *

Fantastic lawyer. I hired her to help with a legal matter involving an entertainment dispute with an independent label. It was ugly and emotional because it became clear we were totally taken advantage of by the other side. Rabeh is great at what she does and beyond that, a decent person with a lot of compassion. I wish there was a way to give 10 stars.

* * * * *

Rabeh was there for me every step of the way. She made everything simple and as stress free as she could, and transferring to her was far easier than i imagined. My case was a challenge, but it had depth and meaning and Rabeh recognized this early on. She is not just an attorney who comes in to argue the technical legalities, she is a true advocate.

* * * * *

am so happy we found Attorney Soofi. She is maybe the most honest and hardworking person I ever hired. She was kind and has a huge heart and I feel like we have a protector for life. I never had anyone stick up for me and my rights as much as she did.

* * * * *

Rabeh is hands down, an amazing lawyer. She was hired to help us with an entertainment business company, and I have to say - I have never met a more honest, trustworthy, and knowledgeable lawyer.

* * * * *

Rabeh is one of the few lawyers I have worked in the past that really listens and you feel has your best interests in mind. She clearly has compassion for clients, and is honest in a way that I have never had prior lawyers be with me. I was happy with the outcome and recommend her highly.

Wonderful lawyer. Honest and actually cares about the people she represents above all else. Very please and happy I found her!

* * * * *

Rabeh is really excellent at knowing the law and explaining it in a very easy to understand manner. I have no experience with the legal industry, and I am very thankful that i found her because I have heard there are a lot of bad lawyers out there who can really take advantage of you.

* * * * *

Rabeh is without a doubt the best lawyer I have ever hired. She is extremely smart, aggressive, and compassionate. So relieved and happy we found her.

* * * * *

Rabeh is a godsend. She is aggressive and fights for clients. She helped me with my case and took care of me from A to Z. Cannot recommend highly enough!!!

* * * * *

I have had the great pleasure and privilege of using the services of this amazing attorney. The entertainment business is a layered and nuanced industry and I cannot think of a better person to maneuver in this complex field.
