Florida law at a glance
- Florida lets shareholders of many closely held corporations agree on how the company is governed, even where the agreement departs from the default statutory rules (section 607.0732, Florida Statutes).
- For LLCs, the operating agreement controls most issues, and Chapter 605 fills in where it is silent.
- Buy-sell terms are commonly funded with life insurance or installment payments. The valuation method should be settled in the agreement, not after a dispute starts.
