Protecting What Matters Most
Business Formation Lawyers
One of the primary legal decisions a business must make is which type of entity to form. LLCs, partnerships, S-corporations, C-corporations, and nonprofits all have different features. With the help of a knowledgeable business formation law firm, you can select the entity type that makes the most sense for your unique goals and circumstances.
Some entity types are more flexible than others, so making the wrong choice could bring unexpected consequences or even cause an expensive conversion in the future. This decision could even prevent your company from making money. The business formation lawyers at Marcellino Moore can guide you to the right decision. Our business formation services have assisted many startups in the Charlotte, NC area, as well as Lancaster County, SC. Take a look at your options below.
- LLC (Limited Liability Company): A limited liability company is a business model that combines aspects of a partnership or sole proprietorship and a corporation. Just like owners of a partnership or sole proprietorship, business owners of LLCs report business earnings and losses on their personal income tax returns, so the LLC itself is not a different taxable entity. However, like corporations, LLC owners’ personal liability for debts and claims is protected, hence the name “limited liability.” The result of this is that if the business acquires debt or faces a lawsuit, only the business’s assets are at risk.
- LLP (Limited Liability Partnership): A limited liability partnership is a business partnership in which all partners have the right to control the entity. However, each partner has protection from negligent acts or personal liability of the other partners, and employees not under their control. Partners must have individual licenses in the field performed by the LLP and are permitted to partake in the management of the partnership without subjecting their personal liability. Partners in an LLP have the right to directly manage the business, unlike corporate shareholders.
