Business Formation
Get Started on the Right Track
Navigating the complexities of business formation is a critical step in laying the groundwork for your making your entrepreneurial dreams a reality. At Bayside Counsel, we provide comprehensive business formation services to ensure that your venture is built on a solid legal foundation.
Consultation
The process starts with a one-on-one consultation. We will assess your business goals, ownership structure, and specific industry to provide tailored advice on the legal structuring of your venture.
Entity Selection and Structuring
Once we understand the nature of your business and your specific goals, we provide expert guidance on legal entity selection, whether it be a Limited Liability Company (LLC), corporation (either C or S type, depending on tax considerations), partnership, or other entity. Selecting the optimal entity type is crucial, as it impacts all aspects of your business, including governance, operations, finances, and taxation.
Document Drafting and Filing
We prepare and file all documents necessary to effect the legal formation of your business including, but not limited to: articles of incorporation, articles of organization, certificates of limited partnership, fictitious business name statements, and IRS Form SS-4.
We also provide meticulous drafting services for governing documents including, but not limited to: bylaws, operating agreements, partnership agreements, and shareholder agreements (i.e. buy-sell agreements).
Registered Agent Services
We offer registered agent services, acting as your reliable point of contact for legal correspondence, ensuring that you stay informed and in compliance.
