Compared to other business structures like corporations, LLCs are relatively easy to form and maintain. They typically require less paperwork and have fewer formal requirements. LLCs are generally viewed as more credible than sole proprietorships or partnerships. This can be important when dealing with customers, vendors, and other stakeholders who may prefer to do business with a more established and structured company.

At King Legal Group, we have taken the lead in shifting most of our small business clients into limited liability companies (when it is in the best interests of our clients) and away from the formal corporate structure to avoid double taxation of income and to reduce expenses inherent in more traditional entities, which have less flexibility for owners.

Limited liability companies provide flexibility for the small business owner and limit the owner’s personal liability arising from the business activities, while simplifying and minimizing the tax burden to the owner and the business.

A business partnership is a legal relationship between two or more individuals who own and operate a business together for profit. In a partnership, each partner contributes to the business financially, with skills or labor, or both.

Partnerships are typically structured as either general partnerships or limited partnerships:

In a general partnership, all partners have equal rights and responsibilities in the management of the business and share in the profits and losses. General partners are also personally liable for the debts and obligations of the partnership.

In a limited partnership, there are both general partners and limited partners. General partners have management control of the business and are personally liable for the debts and obligations of the partnership. Limited partners, on the other hand, are typically passive investors who contribute capital to the business but have no management authority or liability beyond their investment.

Partnerships are typically formed through a partnership agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions of the partnership, including the rights and responsibilities of each partner, the profit and loss sharing arrangements, and the process for resolving disputes and dissolving the partnership.

A tax attorney can provide a range of benefits to your business, from tax planning and compliance to dispute resolution (audits) and even business structuring.

At King Legal Group, we can develop a tax planning strategy that minimizes your tax liability and takes advantage of all available deductions, credits, and exemptions. We help you structure your business in a way that optimizes your tax benefits, and we can advise you on whether to form a corporation, LLC, or partnership, and help you choose the best tax status for your business.

Tax laws and regulations are complex and constantly changing. Our experienced attorneys help ensure that your business is in compliance with all applicable tax laws and regulations, including filing deadlines, reporting requirements, and tax payments. This can help you avoid costly penalties and legal issues.
