The Decisions That Will Affect the Business in the Future
After discussing your business objectives, we will consider the risks, benefits and tax liabilities of the relevant business entities, including:
- LLCs, which can be taxed as a partnership or corporation;
- S corporations, which are not taxed at the corporation level with all income and deductions going to the shareholders; and
- C corporations, which pay taxes at the corporation level with shareholders also paying taxes on dividends
Additional issues to discuss at the inception of a business include the terms for the eventual sale of stock, voting trust provisions, and valuation provisions for death, disability, and voluntary or involuntary retirement. Our attorneys can draft buy-sell agreements that will protect your company from these circumstances without interrupting business. We may also recommend that privately held companies purchase key-person life insurance to cover potential losses.
You can contact us for assistance, both resolving and litigating disputes, arising from disagreements between principals, such as majority versus minority shareholders. We understand that litigation is also expensive and time-consuming; that’s we strive to resolve disputes in a cost-effective manner.
