Each situation is different.  But for most small businesses, tax treatment will be best in an S-corp or an LLC.  Especially if the shareholders/members work for the company, an S-corp has unique advantages.  Come in for a consultation or e-mail me to learn more.

You can change an existing registration to a corporation or an LLC, but you should act quickly.  You do not begin to enjoy any of the tax planning or asset protection benefits of the new organization until it is properly created and registered.  Contact us for an appointment.

Simple incorporations and LLC formations can be done for a fixed fee, inexpensively and quickly, in most cases for substantially less than $500.00.  Complex organizations and business structuring is done on an hourly basis, and is best done after a free consultation in my office.

How much does it cost?
