Advising New Business Owners on Choice of Entity
Our firm advises new and aspiring business owners on the legal, financial, and contractual issues related to starting a business. We advise clients during the process of choosing an entity such as LLC, corporation, S corporation, non-profit, partnership, and LLC. Determining the appropriate entity under which a business should operate will be based on a variety of factors. We ask clients questions such as the following:
- Who are the owners?
- Who will be the members and the managers?
- Who will be the directors?
- What are the business's liability limits?
- Where will you be doing business?
- With whom will you be doing business?
Depending on the entity chosen, we help clients with other legal aspects of business formation including:
- Federal Employer Identification Numbers
- Shareholder agreements
- Operating agreements
- By-laws
- Employment agreements
- Employee manuals
- Severance agreements
