Business Formation

As the first and most critical step towards the future success of your business, choosing the proper entity form to reach your business goals is imperative. As each entity has advantages depending on the client's business and tax situation, care must be taken to fully analyze the potential risks, personal liability, investment needs, and tax consequences of each structure before making this all-important choice.

The various types of business structures include: sole proprietorships, partnerships, limited partnerships, limited liability companies (LLCs), corporations (subchapter C and S), non-profit corporations, and cooperatives. We serve as statutory agents for our business clients in Arizona. Our business lawyers and paralegals are adept in registering and incorporating businesses in Arizona, Nevada, Delaware, and other tax favorable states.

Business Planning

The businesses that we form realize the value that our counsel adds to their business operations. These businesses remain our clients as their business grows and prospers. Our business attorneys have diverse backgrounds, and are trained and licensed CPAs and degreed MBAs. This unique combination of attorneys who are professionally trained in accounting, business management, finance and marketing provides our business clients legal counsel who understand their business operations, the tax consequences of their business decisions, and the foresight to plan, direct, and advise strategic business decisions.

Business contracts

Our business law and corporate law attorneys take a leading role in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts on behalf of our clients, including: buy sell agreements, operating agreements, shareholder agreements, employment contracts, and non-compete and non-solicitation agreements.
