Business Formation and Incorporation Lawyers
Business Formation and Incorporation Lawyers
Whether forming a business for the first time, or incorporating an existing small business, selecting an appropriate ownership structure and formation type is a major component in the creation and growth of a successful business. This decision will have a substantial effect not only on executive-level issues such as liability, taxation and regulatory compliance, but also on the day-to-day operations of the company.
Though these issues are important, they should not be daunting or intimidating. With proper information and advice, business owners can quickly understand the differences between each entity type, and make informed decisions on how to best move their company forward. Many San Diego entrepreneurs simply need some legal guidance they can trust in order to select their organization structure, and that is exactly the type of service our business formation lawyers provide.
Business Entities Offer Protection
Forming a business entity or incorporating a business offers numerous benefits, one of the most substantial of which is asset protection. Many types of business entities will create a line of separation between the assets of the company and those of the business owner. In most situations, this effectively shields company owners from any debts, obligations and legal claims that may exist against the business.
Selecting a Business Entity Type
Not all business entities provide the same level of liability protection. Several entity types offer little to no protection, but are commonly used because their formation requirements are easy to meet. These include:
- Sole Proprietorships
- General Partnerships
- Joint Ventures
Conversely, some business entities provide sufficient protection but involve complex legal requirements, such as:
- Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP)
- Limited Partnerships (LP)
- Limited Liability Companies (LLC)
- C-Corporations
- S-Corporations
Our business incorporation lawyers can assist you in weighing the benefits and disadvantages of these entity types and help you come to an informed decision on which one will best meet your business’ needs.
