Do you have a solid business idea, but you are unsure which legal structure will best carry your business forward into the future?

One of the biggest decisions that you will face when starting your company is whether you will form a Limited Liability Company (LLC), a C-corporation (C-corp) or an S-corporation (S-corp). Choosing the right entity structure from the start will help make sure your company is set up for success now and into the future.

Here are the 10 million reasons: Down the road your C corporation could help you save taxes on up to $10 million when you sell the stock of your company. You are starting a new company now and you are trying to figure out whether you should form a limited liability company (LLC) or a corporation. And, even if you decide to set up a corporation, should it be an S corporation or a C corporation?

Where should you incorporate your business – Delaware or California? It is important to select the right state of incorporation at the beginning, so that you avoid additional complications and costs down the road.

Structuring a business as a corporation is the right choice for most startups, and it will make even more sense if you are considering equity crowdfunding as a way to raise money for your company.

When I talk with business owners, I continually am surprised to learn how many of them have not put a legal structure around their business operations. They are hard-working, entrepreneurial and often highly educated owners really want to incorporate or set up a LLC, but they have been distracted by other, more pressing business issues.
