Entity Formation: Strategic Planning & Launch

If you are carrying on a business for profit as a sole proprietor or general partnership, you and your partner(s) can be held personally liable for any debts and liabilities incurred by your business. It is critical to formally organize as a business entity under the law to establish your limited liability shield. A proper corporate or limited liability form keeps your personal assets out of the reach of creditors and plaintiffs by limiting any losses to the assets of the business alone. There are benefits and detriments inherent in each form, and the Levine Law Group can help determine which is best for you and take handle the entire process.

As important as it is to form, it is equally so to maintain your legal entity status. Failing to remain in compliance with state and federal law may allow an adverse party to pierce the liability shield and reach your personal assets.  At Levine Law Group, we pride ourselves on educating and empowering our clients to meet and exceed their goals from both a legal and business perspective. We also understand the cost of legal services may be daunting for some startups, but know that the costs of going it alone can be much greater. We supply a supportive network of passionate professionals who make themselves available to answer your every question along the way.
