Business Formation
Our firm helps aspiring entrepreneurs turn ideas into viable business opportunities. We accomplish this by seeking on-going relationships with our clients, advising clients on a variety of business formation issues, and routinely helping clients throughout the course of their business. We advise our clients to take preventive steps to ensure their interests are fully protected.
We are keen on advising entrepreneurs and seasoned business owners on the legal, financial, and contractual issues related to starting a business. We advise clients during the process of choosing the legal entities available in the state of New York such as LLC, corporation, non-profit and partnership. Determining the appropriate entity under which a business should operate will be based on a variety of factors. We ask clients questions such as the following:
-
Who are the owners?
-
Who will be the members and the managers?
-
Who will be the directors?
-
Where will you be doing business?
-
With whom will you be doing business?
Depending on the entity chosen, we help clients with other legal aspects of business formation including:
-
Federal Employer Identification Numbers
-
Shareholder agreements
-
Operating agreements
-
By-laws
-
Employment agreements
-
Employee manuals
-
Severance agreements
Our firm also advises clients during on-going business operations including business transactions and business succession planning.
