WFSS PROVIDES EXPLANATION OF AMENDMENT M TO SOUTH DAKOTA CONSTITUTION Woods, Fuller, Shultz & Smith provides a brief explanation of proposed Amendment M to the South Dakota Constitution. Amendment M, which will be placed on the ballot of the 2012 general election on November 6, 2012, seeks to revise South Dakota's Constitution to provide greater flexibility in the corporate voting process, expand the types of capital contributions made to a corporation in exchange for stock, update the procedures governing the increase of corporate stock or debt, and make the South Dakota Constitution consistent with the South Dakota Business Corporation Act (SDCL §47-1A). If adopted by the public on November 6, 2012, Amendment M would make South Dakota an even more attractive state for businesses and corporations, potentially leading to further economic development in South Dakota.

The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical and professional associations and societies of law or field of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist or expert in a field of law, nor do they mean that such a lawyer is necessarily any more expert or competent than any other lawyer. A description or indication of limitation of practice does not mean that any agency or board has certified such lawyer as a specialist or expert in an indicated field of law practice, nor does it mean that such lawyer is necessarily any more expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered. This disclosure is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
