Business Consulting

Business Start-up

Are you thinking of starting a business? Are you wondering what type of business entity to form? …LLC? S Corporation? Partnership? Sole Proprietor? or a Corporation?

Our firm will discuss the tax and accounting needs for each business type to help you decide. Once you understand the tax obligations then we suggest you visit an attorney to set up your business entity.
