Business formation and startups
Starting a business? Choose the right entity and put the agreements between owners in writing from day one.
Set it up right from the start
The entity you choose and the agreements between owners shape how the business is taxed, how decisions get made, and what happens when someone wants out. Those are much easier to settle at the beginning than in the middle of a disagreement.
We help owners form the company, document who owns what, and line up the licenses the business will need before opening day.
What we help with
Choosing and forming a corporation, LLC or other entity
Operating agreements, shareholder agreements and buy-sell provisions
Ownership structure when partners, family or investors are involved
Business and liquor or lottery licensing for a new location
Talk before you open
If you are planning a new business, tell us what you have in mind. We will explain your options and what the setup involves.
This page is general information, not legal advice. Tax and accounting questions should go to your accountant.
