Whether you’re a solopreneur or part of a partnership, we help you choose and set up the right business entity, such as an LLC, C-Corp, S-Corp, or Limited Partnership. Our corporate services offer a wide range of support, from forming a new entity and converting between entity types to handling compliance tasks like FMCSA DOT registration, business licenses, and more.
Corporate Services
- Compliance: Business entity formation and registration, annual reporting, purchases and business transfers.
Types of Business Entities
Sole Propietorship
- Liability: Single owner entity with unlimited personal liability for business debts.
- Taxes: Business income is reported on the owner's personal tax return.
Partnership
- Ownership: Two or more people who share profits and losses.
- Liability: Partners are typically personally liable for business debts, though this can vary (e.g., limited partnership).
- Taxes: Profits and losses pass through to the partners' individual tax returns.
Limited Liability Company (LLC)
- Ownership: One or more owners (members).
- Liability: Owners have limited personal liability for business debts.
- Taxes: Can choose to be taxed as a sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation.
Corporations
C-Corporation
- Ownership: Owned by shareholders.
- Liability: A separate legal entity, so owners are not personally liable for business debts.
- Taxes: C Corporation: Taxed separately from its owners, leading to potential double taxation, which implies that the corporation files its taxes separately from its directors and shareholders.
S-Coporation:
- Allows profits and losses to be passed through to owners' personal income without being subject to corporate tax rates, while still providing limited liability.
