Business & Corporate Law
Entity Formation and Organizational Representation
Formation and Representation of all Corporate Entities
Forming a new business starts with selecting the entity structure that makes the most sense given your business plan, intended organizational structure and funding goals. Tax and liability considerations will often counsel in favor of a particular entity form as well. Should you form a corporation, partnership, limited liability company (LLC) or other special-purpose entity? Should you form your entity in Florida or another state? We can help you weigh your options and then prepare all of the documentation necessary to properly form your new entity.
Not-For-Profit Entity Representation and Formation
Forming a not-for-profit entity involves many of the same considerations involved in forming a for-profit business; however, there are additional issues you will need to address as well. Our attorneys can walk you through the process of establishing and documenting your tax exemption eligibility, and we can give you the tools you need to ensure that your not-for-profit entity retains its tax-exempt status.
Preparation of Shareholder Agreements and all Corporate Records and Transactions
Beyond filing organizational documents with the appropriate state authority, establishing a new business in Florida requires the preparation of several other documents that will help formalize your officers’ and directors’ rights and responsibilities and address the various other issues that are inherent in running a successful company. Florida businesses must satisfy ongoing recordkeeping requirements as well, with failure to keep appropriate records having the potential to expose individual owners to personal liability.
Our business lawyers can prepare all of the documentation your company needs now and in the future, including:
- Bylaws
- Meeting Minutes
- Resolutions
- Shareholder Agreements
At Rossway Swan, we also have extensive experience representing clients in commercial contract negotiations, mergers, acquisitions, and other complex business transactions. Our attorneys rely on decades of experience to draft agreements and negotiate terms that protect our clients’ interests while meeting the strict deadlines that business demands.
