Business Formation Attorneys
When you are organizing a new business, a determination needs to be made regarding the formation of the business. Will the business be operated as a partnership, a corporation, or a limited liability company? What are the business and tax considerations that go into the business formation decision and how will the decision affect how the business operates? At Carroll & Karagelian LLP, in Media, Pennsylvania, our business formation attorneys assist clients in making business formation decisions, enabling our law firm to prepare the documents necessary to establish the company.

There are various forms of business organizations available to those who wish to start a new business in southeast Pennsylvania or the Wilmington, Delaware area. The business formation attorneys at Carroll & Karagelian LLP will use their business experience to help you select and create a business organization that will best meet your needs. We are experienced in preparing and filing all the required documents for a variety of business entities, including:

Sole proprietorships
Limited partnerships
Limited liability partnerships
General partnerships
Corporations (Subchapter “C” and “S”)
Limited liability companies (LLCs)
Non-profit organizations
Closely held businesses
Family limited partnerships

Each type of business organization described above carries complicated legal and taxation decisions that can affect the new business and its owners far into the future. Business owners must consider the start-up costs, the complexity of the business formation, personal liability issues, tax consequences, and the legal burden imposed by statutes and regulations. In addition, for organizations in which there is more than one owner, proper consideration must be given to the entity’s governance documents such as shareholder agreements, partnership agreements, operating agreements, bylaws and voting trusts. At Carroll & Karagelian LLP, our business formation attorneys will review your situation and goals, and then develop a plan of action to help you achieve those goals.
