Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, or Partnerships: Which is the Best Strategy?
After your entity is formed, Wild, Carter & Tipton can continue to perform additional services related to the operation of your business. For example, a corporation will be obligated to perform certain corporate functions on a continuing basis such as holding an annual meeting, keeping minutes on what had occurred in the meeting, and filing an annual report and paying a fee to the state in which it is incorporated. Failure to complete these obligations may result in the lapse of the corporation; the shareholders may become liable for any outstanding debt that the corporation has acquired.
Partnerships, in comparison to forming other entities, tend to be inexpensive and relatively easy to form and maintain. However, there are some issues that Wild, Carter & Tipton can help you navigate such as the partnership agreement, liability issues, allocation of profits, and taxation as it relates to allocation of profits.
If you want to discuss the difference between a corporation and a limited liability company, or you have a partnership that you’d like to incorporate for liability and tax reasons call Wild, Carter & Tipton and have your questions answered by an attorney.
