Asset Protection -- Understanding how to Protect Your Company

How a company is formed will determine what kind of taxes it is subject to, as well as the rate at which it will be taxed. Under the United States tax code, a business can deduct certain start-up costs, operating costs, and other expenses from its federal income tax. Understanding how to take advantages of allowances within the law when you start your business can have a long lasting financial impact. Our attorneys discuss the options available to you, explaining how other costs can be deducted and what can be done on the investment side to further decrease your tax liability.

Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation - Why they Matter

Regardless of whether you're starting an internet mail order business out of your basement or building a new restaurant with a long-time friend, bylaws and articles of incorporation are important for protecting you against legal and financial liability. You can detail how money is to be handled, who will have authority to withdraw money, and what kind of oversight will be in place to militate against financial mismanagement. Additionally, bylaws and articles of incorporation allow you to indemnify yourself or your board when certain kinds of situations arise in the course of business operations.
