Business Formation and Structure

There are a range of business structures under which you can do business. The U.S. Small Business Administration notes that the business structure you choose can impact many aspects of your business. Business structure can impact how you pay taxes and even how much you might owe. Choosing the right business structure could also protect you from personal liability and can create a distinction between business assets and debts and personal assets and debts. What type of business structures are available?

  • Sole Proprietorship. With a sole proprietorship, your business and personal liabilities and property are one and the same. Sole proprietorships may work if you are the only person doing business and don’t have a business partner. While a sole proprietorship is the easiest business structure to establish, it may not be the best structure for all business needs. Should you run your business as a sole proprietorship, or is there another business structure that might offer you added protections? Mark Bobb is a business lawyer in White Plains, New York that may be able to help you.
  • There are different types of partnership structures available including limited partnerships and limited liability partnerships. When two or more people own a business, a partnership may be one choice of business structure. With a limited liability partnership, each partner may be protected from liabilities stemming from the partnership, which may be able to provide some protection for a person’s individual assets. If you and another person or people are thinking of starting a business, is a partnership right for you? The Bobb Law Firm is a business law firm in White Plains, New York that can review your situation and help you understand the range of options that may be available to your company.
  • Limited Liability Company. A limited liability company may give you added protections should claims be made against your company. If claims are made against your company, a limited liability company structure may be able to protect your personal property and assets from these claims. However, these protections may be limited and there may be ways in which these protections can be more or less robust. Before choosing any one business structure for your company, it might be wise to speak to a business law firm like The Bobb Law Firm in White Plains, New York.
  • Structuring your business as a corporation can offer you and your partners added liability protection, but corporate formation can be costly and may require additional responsibilities on the part of the corporation, including detailed record-keeping, reporting requirements, and other legal requirements. There are several different corporate structures available and each has its own benefits and drawbacks in terms of tax benefits, tax requirements, responsibilities, and structure. There are several options when it comes to structuring your business—from forming a C Corp, an S Corp, a B Corp, or a not-for-profit.

Protecting Your Business with Contracts 

When doing business, most business owners will find themselves soon encountering the need for contracts. When hiring employees, you’ll need employment contracts. Employment contracts can make clear expectations, salaries, hours of work, and can also protect your business interests by including nondisclosure and noncompete agreements. When hiring contractors, you can protect your business interests and make clear your relationship by having a contract in place. When making sales for goods or services, sales contracts can make clear the terms of the sale, the price, and the delivery expectations, as well as warranties and limitations.
