Choosing the Right Business Entity
Selecting the proper structure is one of the most critical decisions when launching a business. Your choice impacts liability, taxation, governance, and future growth.
Our Los Angeles business formation lawyers assist with every stage of entity selection, explaining the legal and financial implications of each option:
- Partnerships: Shared ownership and profits, governed by a carefully drafted partnership agreement defining roles and responsibilities.
- Limited Liability Company (LLC): Offers liability protection with flexible management and pass-through taxation.
- S Corporation: Allows profits to pass through to shareholders without corporate-level taxation; requires compliance with IRS and state rules.
- C Corporation: A distinct legal entity ideal for raising capital, though subject to both corporate and shareholder-level taxes.
Factors to Consider When Structuring Your Business
When choosing your entity, it’s important to evaluate:
- The level of personal liability protection desired
- Applicable tax treatment and reporting requirements
- Management flexibility and decision-making authority
- Future plans for growth or capital investment
Our attorneys take a forward-looking approach—anticipating how today’s decisions will affect your business years from now.
Drafting and Maintaining Corporate Documents
Every business needs well-drafted organizational documents. Whether it’s an Operating Agreement, Partnership Agreement, or Corporate Bylaws, these documents define ownership, management, and operational procedures.
Proper documentation not only supports smooth daily operations but also instills confidence in lenders and investors by demonstrating sound structure and governance.
