How We
Can Help
With a potential for rapid growth, it is important that the “rules of the game” are established right from the start. A proper business structure helps to avoid unnecessary disputes in the future, whether among founders or between the business and third parties such as service providers, employees, and investors.
An LLC, for example, may be adequate for a small and closely held business, but can be highly cumbersome when multiple shareholders, investors, and holders of options are involved. Conversely, a complex structure such as a limited partnership structure or a multiple shareholder C-Corp may be inefficient for a small business, but may be a viable route for an VC fund or a mid sized enterprise.
Business structure can take many forms, such as a common law partnerships, a limited liability company, an S-Corporation, a C-Corporation, or a limited partnership, among other types of entity structures.
Corporate Structuring
Practice Focus
Issues may arise in the future that you and your business partners may not even be considering today. For example, a business partner may make multiple investments in the business, and years down the line may require that the funds be repaid with interest, or that he or she be granted additional shares. Similarly, a business partner may become disinterested and quit working on the business, but still insist on the recognition of his or her large ownership percentage.
These issues, as well as many other issues should be addressed from the start. Other examples include: spending authority, tax liability, contracting authority, non-compete provisions, management limitations, death or incapacity of a member, bankruptcy of a member, acceptance of new members or partners, loans to the business, capital calls, share dilution, removal of partners, and many, many more issues.
