• Entity formation – should I form a limited liability company, a partnership, or a corporation?
• Corporations – What is the difference between an S corporation and a C corporation?
• Partners and Shareholders – what contracts and agreements do we need to set forth our understandings about share of profits, capital contributions, buy-sell provisions, and management roles? What happens if one of the partners dies, retires or becomes disabled, leaves the business or you and your partners want to bring in a new partner?
• Asset Protection – What can I do to protect my personal assets from liability for the company’s debts?
• Compliance – What do I need to do to properly maintain the entity? What kind of business licenses do I need? Do I need to collect and remit sales tax?
• Employees, Independent Contractors, Vendors and Suppliers – What kind of agreements do I need? What do I need to do when I hire a new employee or engage an independent contractor?
• Leases and Financing – What do those complicated lease provisions mean? Can I sublet or assign my lease if I sell my business? Who is responsible for repairs? Do the terms of my business line of credit really work for my business?
