Entity Formation & Governance

Building Strong Foundations for Your Business

The decisions you make at the start of your business will shape its success for years to come. Choosing the right legal structure, drafting strong governing documents, and establishing clear rules for management can prevent future disputes and protect your investment. Our firm helps entrepreneurs and established companies alike set up entities designed for stability, compliance, and growth.

Entity Formation

We guide clients through every step of creating a new business entity, ensuring the structure aligns with both immediate goals and long-term vision.

Our services include:

• Formation of corporations, limited liability companies (LLCs), and partnerships
• Drafting and filing organizational documents with state authorities
• Assisting with business licensing and initial compliance requirements

Governing Documents

Clear and enforceable governing documents are essential to prevent misunderstandings and disputes among owners, partners, or shareholders. We draft tailored agreements that establish roles, responsibilities, and decision-making processes.

We prepare and review:

• Operating agreements for LLCs
• Shareholder agreements for corporations
• Partnership agreements and joint venture agreements
• Bylaws and corporate resolutions

Corporate Governance

Ongoing compliance and good governance practices are just as important as initial formation. We provide continuing legal support to ensure businesses remain compliant and are prepared for growth, restructuring, or outside investment.

Our governance services include:

• Advising boards of directors and managers on fiduciary duties
• Preparing meeting minutes, resolutions, and annual filings
• Counseling on voting rights and equity structures
