That includes, but is not limited to:

Defining Your Unique Business Objectives

Our New York City business organization attorneys will clearly outline the goals and objectives of your company, considering factors like the nature of the business, target market, and long-term plans.

  • Choosing the Appropriate Legal Structure

We will help you decide on the most suitable legal structure for the business, including:

  • Sole Proprietorship: Simplest form, owned and operated by one person.
  • Partnership: Owned by two or more individuals who share profits and liabilities.
  • Corporation: Separate legal entity owned by shareholders.
  • Limited Liability Company (LLC): Blends features of a corporation and a partnership, providing limited liability to members.

Choosing the best business structure for your business’s goals is paramount to your company’s success. We can help you get it right the first time, including preparing and filing articles of incorporation (for a corporation) or articles of organization (for an LLC) with the state.

  • Business Name Registration

Our New York City business organization lawyers will help you choose a unique, appropriate, and available business name and register it with the proper government authorities, which may include local, state, and federal authorities, and obtain the necessary EIN from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) essential for hiring employees, opening a bank account, and filing taxes, and obtaining permits and licenses.

  • Creating Governing Documents

We assist our clients in drafting bylaws (for a corporation) or an operating agreement (for an LLC) to establish internal rules and procedures to address issues such as management structure, decision-making, and distribution of profits.

  • Appoint Directors/Managers

If forming a corporation, we will help our clients appoint directors or, if forming an LLC, designate managers or members overseeing and managing the business.

  • Create Recordkeeping Systems

Our business organization lawyers in New York help our clients attend to each detail of their operations, including establishing a system for keeping accurate and organized business records, financial statements, contracts, and other vital documents.

  • Plan for Future Growth

At William Cooper Law., we consider the scalability of the chosen business structure and plan for future growth, which may include revisiting the structure or governance as the business evolves.

Partnering with dedicated business organization attorneys in New York can ensure that your business is set up correctly, complies with relevant laws, and has the legal foundation for long-term success and growth.
