Whether you are a small start-up, a family owned and operated business, or an experienced entrepreneur opening your fourth business, a business law attorney can work with you throughout all stages of the business entity formation process and help you navigate what type of business entity is best for you.

The type of entity selected effects everything from taxes, personal liability exposure, reporting requirements, and the flexibility of your business operations. A business law attorney will also assist in making sure you have the proper bylaws or company agreements in place and help protect your business from the start from potential disputes.
