Always use a Business Lawyer! This is a dangerous, complex area of Business Law.

It is all confusing. Which entity to choose? LLC or Corporation? Which tax status? Sub-S? LLC with an 8832? How do you document percent ownership among partners? Who has decision-making power, voting rights? Who gets what in dissolution? What about taxes? It is critical to have a business lawyer advise you specifically on each topic, after taking into account your exact legal and tax position.

Be Smart: Don't fall for cheap incorporation sites or self-filing.

Cheap "self-help" incorporation and LLC formation sites ignore most of your detailed circumstances and can easily result in not only loss of limited liability, but securities fraud and breach of fiduciary duty litigation. Keep in mind, most of our litigation business comes from people who mishandled their own incorporation or LLC formation and mis-drafted their own shareholder and partnership agreements. Limiting your liability and correctly structuring your business can be the most important step you take in your life. A misstep is disaster, regardless of how well your business initially does. Keep in mind, most businesses will not survive even a single well-aimed lawsuit if they are improperly structured, and the devil is in the details. Always use a business attorney to handle your entity formation, incorporation or LLC setup. No business is too small, and no business step is more important to get right.

We offer more than just new business incorporations and LLC setup:

• Retail sales tax license filing
• PUC Public Utilities Commission applications, hearings and interventions
• Purchase and sales agreements
• Stock sales and investment capital law
• Franchising law
• Buyouts, mergers and acquisitions
• Asset sales, dissolutions
• Employment compliance issues
• Federal Trademark Registration: Don't forget to search the US Patent and Trademark office's records before contacting us to be your trademark lawyer.

As you grow, we are there to help you. Contract drafting, collections, disputes, capital raising, franchising, business expansion and more.

In addition to helping you with your incorporation, LLC formation or partnership business formations, we also help growing LLC's, corporations and other businesses negotiate the complex legal issues that are part of mergers, acquisitions, and commercial real estate law. As your business needs change, we can help you restructure your corporation for greater tax advantage and to meet the changing needs of shareholders. In addition, our business knowledge gives us the experience to help you avoid many of the start-up issues that lead to disputes and litigation as your business grows.
