Each type of business organization has supplementing and/or off-setting operational and tax consequences. Our firm assists each client seeking incorporation and business planning solutions with understanding and deciding on which of the various business organizations is best suited for their particular goals and circumstances. We advise our clients about directors' and officers' liability, dissolution, reorganization, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, business successions, and shareholders' rights. Upon deciding on the appropriate business entity suited for a client, we draft all necessary incorporation documents and file them with the appropriate state agency.
