BUSINESS PLANNING & FORMATION

How you structure or form your business can impact your income tax, business continuity and estate plan, as well as the amount of legal liability you are exposed to. I work closely with small and medium sized business owners and and entrepreneurs in forming commercial businesses. I work with tax experts, accountants, and financial planners in helping my clients form and incorporate their company. Since there is always a certain amount of risk in starting a company, I explain how a partnership agreements, articles of incorporation, and bylaws can protect you and your investors from added, unwanted financial liability in the event of insolvency or business failure.

To ensure the success of your business, I help with business formation and choice of entity, whether you are interested in a limited liability company (LLC) or a sub-S corporation, I can create your business entity in either Oregon or California. With a focus on protecting intellectual property assets, I draft effective non-disclosure agreements and make sure that intellectual property and other assets are properly disposed of when businesses are winding down.
