Incorporation Legal Questions and Answers

Incorporation

LLC

California

Asked on Jun 25, 2023

LLC and corporate governance?

I recently started a small business and am in the process of setting up a Limited Liability Company (LLC). I am interested in understanding the corporate governance structure of an LLC, including the roles and responsibilities of members and managers, the decision-making process, and the procedures for resolving disputes. I want to ensure that I have the most comprehensive understanding of LLCs before I move forward.

Paul S.

Answered Jun 27, 2023

Those are good questions, and one of the advantages of an LLC is that you have a great deal of flexibility in structuring its management and governance.

S Corp

California

Asked on Jun 3, 2023

What is an S corp?

I am considering starting a business and I have heard about the different types of business entities. One of them is an S corp and I am interested in learning more about it. I am looking for information on what an S corp is, what its advantages and disadvantages are, and whether it is the right type of business entity for my situation. I am hoping to get more information from a lawyer to help me make an informed decision.

Paul S.

Answered Jun 20, 2023

An S-corp isn't actually a type of business. Rather, it's a tax election that you make with the IRS, after forming either a C-corporation or an LLC. When you form a C-corporation and then make an S-corp tax election, you will be taxed like a partnership (if there are more than one shareholder) or sole proprietorship (if only you). If you form an LLC (which is already taxed like a partnership or sole proprietorship) and make an S-corp election, you can lower your self-employment taxes. Keep in mind, also, that there are restrictions on the number and kind of shareholders in an S-corp.

C Corp

California

Asked on Jun 25, 2023

C corp tax advantages?

I am a small business owner looking to incorporate my business as a C Corp. I'm interested in learning more about the tax advantages that come with this type of corporate structure. I want to make sure that I am making the best decision for my business and am looking for a lawyer to help me understand the tax implications of this decision.

Paul S.

Answered Jun 27, 2023

I handle a lot of business formations, and typically only form corporations for tech startups and professionals, such as doctors and dentists. There are significant differences to how corporations are taxes vs. LLCs, and whether those are advantageous depends on the kind of business you are starting, and what your goals are.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
