We Can Help You Choose The Best Business Entity For Your Circumstances

Our attorneys can meet with you and explain your options for choosing a business entity. There are generally three major categories for for-profit businesses available:

• Corporations: including C corporations, S corporations and professional corporations, a corporation provides the most significant amount of personal liability protection available. However, moving to create your business as a corporation comes with extensive tax and initiation costs you may not want.
• Limited liability companies (LLC): An LLC is a less costly, less complicated form of corporate structure that also allows for some liability protections. Typically, creating an LLC is faster for you, and if that’s what you need to get your business opened, then this may be the right choice.
• Direct ownership: Including general and limited partnerships, as well as sole proprietorships, this is when an individual directly owns a business in their name. It’s simple to structure, but it  comes with considerable high risk in the case of personal liability.

In addition to these main categories, there are many sub groups and alternate forms of corporate structures, that can be lasting or temporary. We can also advise you on the potential for opening a nonprofit entity. But, always, our team’s first job as your attorneys will be to assist you in making the right choice for your company.

Corporate Structure Is Only The First Step

Once you have decided on the right entity for you, we can assist you in drafting and filing the relevant paperwork and meeting other specific requirements under the law. We can also assist you in developing, drafting, negotiating and defending through litigation any necessary agreements – including employment contracts, purchases and sales agreements for real estate, and business mergers and acquisitions.

Creating a business from the ground up is not an easy task for anyone. However, having the backing of a group of attorneys you know you can trust will make it easier to have confidence in the choices you have to make.
