Business Formation
How We Approach Business Formation
Starting a company is exciting, and the paperwork is easy to rush. A little care now avoids partner disputes, tax surprises and liability gaps later. We set up the structure and explain how to keep it in good standing.
Choosing an Entity
LLC, corporation or partnership: the right answer depends on ownership, taxes and growth plans. We walk through the tradeoffs with you and your accountant.
Operating and Partner Agreements
Clear rules for voting, capital, buyouts and departures keep co-founders aligned when circumstances change. We draft them to fit how you work.
State Filings and Registrations
We prepare formation documents, registered agent details and trade names, and we calendar annual reports so the company stays current.
Founder Equity and Vesting
Vesting schedules and restricted stock protect a young company if a founder leaves early. We document ownership accurately from day one.
Contracts for Launch
Customer terms, vendor agreements and contractor forms set expectations early. We build templates your team can use confidently.
Licenses and Compliance
Many industries need local or state permits. We identify the requirements for your business and help you keep them in order.
