Business Formation

Getting your gear in order before the expedition

Forming a business is like collecting all your gear before a big expedition. I will not let my clients go out on the side of a snowy cliff without their trusty ice axes and a rope. When it comes to starting a business, I want to impart to you as much knowledge as I can so that you can make the most educated decisions about your business. I will plan for your success while minimizing the risks in your business expedition.

If you’re starting a business with partners, we also provide business pre-nups. The “B-Nup.” Head off future disputes by talking about potential issues ahead of time with a facilitation session. Make sure everyone is on the same page before you go into business together.

We can help with LLC formations, C-Corporation formations, and public benefit corporations. We also have experience with conversions and debt and equity financing instruments.
