Incorporation
We have incorporated hundreds of businesses in California and
elsewhere. Our clients are often surprised at how easy and practical
the corporate format can be once the mystery is taken out of it.
Concerning incorporation, we advise and prepare documents concerning:
- Whether to incorporate
- Incorporation versus LLC
- Where to incorporate
- Subchapter S tax election
- Capitalizing the company
- Mixing debt and equity
- Dealing with founder earn-out issues
- “Cheap stock” for service providers
- Incorporating an existing business
- Founder agreements
- Shareholder buy-sell agreements
- Complex share structures
- Regulation D offerings
- Assignment of intellectual property
- All nuts-and-bolts matters
- All aspects of the incorporation process
- All aspects of corporate administration
For simple incorporations in California or Delaware, we offer
turn-key packages for a reasonable fixed fee. More complex items
are billed hourly. See the description of our Corporate practice
for a more in-depth description of what we do.
