The phrase piercing the corporate veil is used to describe the action of a court to hold corporate shareholders and LLC owners personally liable for the debts and liabilities of a corporation. Corporations are separate entities from their shareholders and in normal circumstances, if a corporation is sued, the individual shareholders and officers cannot be brought into the lawsuit.
