Corporations, LLCs, and Partnerships
Scottsdale Business Planning Attorneys
Starting your own business is a complicated process. You need to ask yourself several questions before you begin. The main questions you should be asking yourself are:
Do I need to establish a separate business entity?
How do I choose the right business entity?
What are the benefits of corporations versus limited liability companies versus partnerships?
We can guide you to the right answers for you and your business!
What if you already have a business? You may be wondering if you are doing the right thing. You might ask yourself, “Should I continue to be a corporation, or LLC or partnership?” Or, you may wonder “Why can’t I stay as a sole proprietor?”
We can guide you to the right answers for you and your business as well!
What about planning for the future of your business?
You might ask yourself “What constitutes an effective business plan?”
For starters, a business plan should help you earn the greatest possible return on your initial investment. It should also protect your family and the business entity itself. In addition, it must allow for the possibility of extraordinary growth and success, as well as offer protection against the financial consequences of operational problems or downturns in the overall economy.
Finally, the plan must take into account the timing and manner of your exit from the business.
