Business owners will need to address a variety of legal concerns, and by taking the right steps during the business formation process, they can protect themselves against liability and ensure that they are prepared for future growth.

Considerations When Forming a Business
One of the most important decisions that a business owner can make is the choice of how to structure their company. Establishing a legal entity for a business and the proper type of business structure will provide an owner or their partners with protection against being held personally liable for business debts and obligations. It will also ensure that a business will have the proper organizational structure in place while meeting requirements for reporting information to investors or other parties. Depending on the needs of a business, it may be structured at a partnership, corporation, or limited liability company (LLC). Our attorneys can provide guidance on which type of structure to choose and ensure that the correct steps will be followed when establishing a legal business entity.
We can also assist with other issues related to the business formation process, including the creation of legal agreements. These may include owner/partnership agreements that define the relationship between partners and determine how the business will be managed, as well as other types of business contracts. We can also assist with tax planning, and as a certified public accountant, Attorney Joe Gonzalez can provide guidance on the best steps to take to minimize a business's tax burden or address other financial issues.
