Frequently asked

Business Law & Formation: common questions

Should my business be an LLC or a corporation?

Both can separate business liabilities from your personal assets, but they differ in structure, formalities, and taxation. The right choice depends on your goals, partners, and plans for growth — and how the business fits into your estate plan.

Why have a lawyer review a contract before I sign?

Once it’s signed, it’s binding. A review flags risks and unclear terms while you can still negotiate them.

Why coordinate my business with my estate plan?

Ownership interests, buy-sell agreements, and succession all affect what happens to the business — and your family — if something happens to you. Planning them together avoids gaps.

General information only — not legal advice. Every situation is different; talk with an attorney about yours.
