Shakespeare explains the purpose of Shakespeare & Associates in the Ledger dated 1/17/07. It was dissolved on 9/26/08 instead of filing an annual financial report: ADMIN DISSOLUTION FOR ANNUAL REPORT.
Being a novice to the LLC world, I trying to understand if an LLC can be dissolved prior to reporting if Abraham has invested money in the company. If so, what happened to the money? Cedric Lewis, the attorney listed as registered agent, didn't set it up as a non-profit. And we know that the company was used to flow mortgages to American Medical Professionals (one of the proposed ventures he was fielding?).
I'd like to hear from Cedric Lewis; the attorney that Shakespeare trusted.
Shakespeare talked with the media Thursday in his lawyer's office about his plans for Shakespeare & Associates, a corporation that will create business ventures in real estate, rehabilitation of homes and affordable housing. He also is planning to create a nonprofit corporation that will assist those in need. He's planning to do much more with his business, but Shakespeare said he hasn't finalized the details yet.
He got the idea for the business from one of his friends and he's relying on his longtime friendships with partners Franklin Jackson and Gregory Massey to get the corporation started. Winter Haven lawyer Cedric Lewis has been fielding requests for some of the proposed ventures.
