Business Structure Selection and Incorporation
I can help you navigate the maze of different
business entity choices and determine the most tax advantageous form of
operating your business. I can also help you incorporate the selected business
entity under your specific state law. You can avoid paying
exorbitant attorney fees to accomplish the same.
What specific Business Entity advisory services can you offer?
I will help you select a business structure
designed to minimize taxes and accommodate both short and long-term goals of the
business and its owners. Many businesses are established without fully
considering the variety of alternative business entity forms, leading to
unintended tax consequences or complications. I start with an understanding of
your business plans. I will then review and discuss with you the benefits and
challenges of available business structure alternatives in a way that helps you
select the most advantageous entity structure consistent with your personal and
business plans..
What are the benefits of such advisory services?
I can help you decide if a different entity
form makes sense, given changes in the nature of your current business
operations.
The benefits of proper entity selection include
income tax reduction, liability protection, operational flexibility, and ease of
business expansion and succession.
What are the consequences of not securing proper Business Entity Alternatives
advisory opinions?
Selecting the wrong form of business may cost
additional unnecessary taxes, reduce or limit employee benefits, increase
liability, reduce operational flexibility, and complicate business expansion and
succession planning.

As I quote in my opening remarks on my homepage,
“........Over and over again, the courts have said that there
is nothing sinister in so arranging affairs as to keep taxes as low as
possible....”
Please ensure you discuss any plans you may have to establish a new business or
that may suggest a change to a new business entity form.
