Why Proper Business Formation Matters

Choosing the right business structure is more than just filing paperwork.

It is a legal and strategic decision that affects:

  • A close-up of a metal fountain pen with a gold nib resting on an open book with handwritten notes.

    Your personal liability and legal protection

  • A black kitten with yellow eyes sitting on a white surface.

    How you are taxed by the IRS

  • A person holding a smartphone taking a selfie outdoors

    Your eligibility for funding or investment

  • A close-up of a dark-colored dog with yellow eyes, resting on a surface.

    Your ability to hire employees or add partners

  • A close-up of a sandal with a white strap and black sole on a sandy surface.

    How your business grows or exits in the future

We help clients understand the pros and cons of each structure and guide them through the complete formation processβ€”from state registration to IRS filings.

Entity Types We Form

  • A wooden desk with a silver laptop, a white coffee cup, and a small potted succulent plant in a white square pot, against a plain wall.

    Limited Liability Company (LLC)

    LLCs are one of the most flexible and popular choices for small business owners, real estate investors, consultants, and service providers. We help you register your LLC with the appropriate Secretary of State, draft a custom Operating Agreement, and apply for your EIN with the IRS.

  • Person writing in a notebook on a speckled white table with a cup of coffee and a small vase with a plant.

    Professional Limited Liability Company (PLLC)

    For licensed professionalsβ€”such as medical doctors, therapists, lawyers, and architectsβ€”a PLLC is often required by your state licensing board. We understand the nuances of PLLC formation and ensure you meet all regulatory requirements for your profession.

  • Three women in a meeting, one standing and speaking, two seated at a table with laptops and notebooks, engaging in conversation and smiling.

    S-Corporation (S-Corp)

    An S-Corp is not a separate entity type, but a tax election made through the IRS. We help eligible LLCs and Corporations elect S-Corp status to reduce self-employment taxes, manage shareholder structure, and maximize tax savings when appropriate.

  • Tall modern skyscrapers with glass exteriors in downtown city, blue sky with some clouds above.

    Corporation (C-Corp)

    We assist founders forming traditional Corporationsβ€”particularly tech startups and businesses seeking investors or venture capital. Our formation services include Articles of Incorporation, bylaws, shareholder agreements, and board resolutions to position you for future fundraising or growth.

Our Formation Services Include:

  • Entity Type Selection β€” We help you choose between LLC, PLLC, S-Corp, or Corporation based on your goals, industry, and tax strategy.

  • State Business Registration β€” We file Articles of Organization or Incorporation with your Secretary of State.

  • Custom Governing Documents β€” We draft Operating Agreements, Bylaws, Shareholder Agreements, and Resolutions.

  • IRS Employer Identification Number (EIN) β€” We apply for your federal EIN so you can open a business bank account and pay employees.

  • S-Corp Tax Election (Form 2553) β€” If electing S-Corp status, we handle your filing with the IRS.

  • Compliance Guidance β€” We advise on local licenses, annual filings, and operating compliance based on your state.

  • Post-Formation Consulting β€” You receive strategic guidance on what to do next: opening accounts, creating contracts, hiring, and protecting your brand.
