Business Formation & Startup
Form the business.
Set the terms.
Launch with an entity, ownership arrangements, and governing documents that reflect how your business will operate, make decisions, and grow.
Discuss business formation
THE STARTUP PACKAGE
Agree how ownership will work.
We connect the legal structure with your business goals. That means addressing ownership, control, and responsibilities at the outset, while coordinating tax choices with your accountant.
Entity and ownership structure
Evaluate the entity, formation state, owners, and management structure in light of your operating plans, tax advice, and anticipated growth.
Formation and filings
Prepare the agreed formation documents and coordinate the filings needed to establish the entity in the selected jurisdiction.
Founder and owner terms
Document contributions, economic rights, decision-making, transfers, and departures so the owners understand the arrangement they are entering.
Governing documents
Prepare an operating agreement or corporate bylaws and related ownership documents suited to the entity and its owners.
Initial authority and records
Document initial approvals, management appointments, and signing authority, with an organized set of governing records.
Launch priorities
Know which customer terms, brand protections and contractor IP arrangements to address next as you prepare to do business.
PLANNING YOUR LAUNCH
Start with the ownership decisions.
Who will own the business? Who will run it? What happens if an owner leaves? We work through those questions and recommend the formation and ownership documents your plans call for, with fees agreed before work begins. Government fees are separate.
