Can owner of a company be held personally liable?
The owner can be held personally liable for business debts, but it depends on the business structure and what type of contract the owner holds. If the owner is operating a sole proprietorship (he/she is the only owner), the owner and the business are technically considered the same entity, meaning the owner has full personal liability for any business debt. In a partnership, the business belongs to each partner, meaning that business debt also belongs to each partner personally. Each partner is liable for 100% of business debts. The only time an owner is not held personally liable for debts is in a corporation or LLC. In both of these cases, the business and owner are considered separate entities and, in theory, the owner could have no personal liability for business debt. Liability could occur if the owner has signed a personal guarantee, has offered his/her property as collateral, has signed a contract in his/her own name, he/she uses personal loans or credit cards to fund the business, or there is some sort of fraud or sloppy record-keeping.
