Help with Formation and Incorporation

Any business faces legal exposure as soon as it opens its doors. Liability can take many forms, including allegations of fraud, defamation, or personal injury. Someone who uses a product could end up injured and claim it was defective. These are real risks. And someone suing you could win a court judgment for millions of dollars. To protect against these possibilities, you should create an entity form for your business which confers limited liability.

In Florida, corporations are a popular corporate form. Owned by shareholders, a corporation has a distinct legal identity from its ownership. As a result, anyone suing the corporation for a debt or liability cannot “reach through” and grab an owner’s personal assets. Neither general partnerships nor sole proprietorships offer this liability protection. Instead, a sole proprietor could end up losing many personal assets when and if they are sued.

Ronald Cutler and his team can help with business formation, including forming and registering a corporation. This is a multi-step process:

• Choosing the right name that conforms to legal requirements.
• Forming a Board of Directors to run the business.
• Creating bylaws for how the corporation should be run.
• Drafting articles of incorporation and filing them with the state.

Before forming a corporation, we can discuss which type you want to form. A C corporation is usually standard for larger businesses, but small and even medium-sized businesses might choose to become S corporations. We can also review whether you seek to incorporate as a nonprofit, as well as the unique legal requirements.

Tax Planning for Your Corporation

Taxes will take a huge bite out of any corporation’s bottom line. We can help with tax planning, including identifying and maximizing your business deductions. We can also help identify business credits or incentives which are available to your business or industry. There is no reason to leave these credits lying on the table unused.

Let us review your current taxes and find ways of lowering your bill. We can coordinate with your CPA or in-house tax professional to better understand your current business strategy. Our goal is to ensure you are satisfied with whatever tax plan you employ.
