    Is my S-Corporation in danger, if there is a personal judgement on me?
    I am currently the sole proprietor of a business. If I transfer the business form a sole proprietorship to a S-Corporation, can a personal judgement against me harm the corporation? I want to have the S-corporation under my name.
