Why You Need a Lawyer to Start Your Business

The last thing you need when you’re busy starting a new business is dealing with piles of paperwork – but unfortunately, that’s typically what happens. It’s one of the main reasons why entrepreneurs turn to a lawyer for company registration. It’s a way of ensuring not only that your business is fully compliant with Colorado and federal regulations, but it also frees up your time, allowing you to focus on establishing your business operations.

As an entrepreneur in Colorado, it is not only required to follow strict guidelines for registration, but there are also various legal protections your business will need to plan for the future. Sequoia Legal is fluent in state and federal regulations and works with you to provide continued support from formation and beyond.

Build a Strong Foundation with Our Professional Business Formation Guidance

A strong foundation is key to good business, and our company formation lawyers know all the common pitfalls and mistakes that new businesses often make. From reducing your tax burden and increasing profit to helping you avoid legal landmines that could cause problems in the years ahead, we’ll ensure your business has the appropriate structure right from the start.

  • Before you officially form your business, our business formation planning attorneys will walk you through several important issues, including:

    • Your business plan and legalities relating to it
    • Tax and liability
    • Management structure required for each kind of business entity
    • Relevant state and federal regulations

    We’ll walk you through the entire process from start to finish and help you find the right options that suit your business needs.

  • With a lawyer, business entity formation is made simpler. We’ll help you decide what kind of entity you intend to run, who the managers are, and other business formalities and requirements to continue legal operation.

    Whether it’s a management meeting with legally mandated minutes or helping you decide precisely what kind of entity is best for your business, Sequoia Legal has the knowledge and experience required to help you make the right decision.

    We ensure more than just a smooth formation process, but years of continued legal operation without unnecessary complications caused by errors during the formative years of your business.

  • Once you’ve decided on the right kind of entity, our business structuring attorney will draft and register all necessary documents. These include your articles of incorporation, articles of organization, tax forms, agreements, and more.

    With a lawyer, incorporating business documents, shareholder agreements, and buy-sell agreements can also be planned ahead of time, along with putting policies in place to govern the roles of investors and partners.

  • You might be surprised at just how many federal and state regulations apply to your business. Our business formation attorneys examine your area of work and help you determine whether there are any specific federal or local laws to comply with.

  • Business contracts govern how you do business with contractors, employees, and any other professional who interacts with your business. These contracts protect you in the event of a dispute and can make light work of lawsuits.

    We handle a wide range of contracts, including:

    …and more! Whatever business interactions you make, we’ll ensure you have contracts that protect your interests.

  • Protect your ideas and business with intellectual property lawyers! Our corporate lawyer business entity formation service equips you with important knowledge about intellectual property, and we can assist with filing applications with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

FAQs

  • The United States government does not require that LLCs or Corporations are set up by citizens. S Corporations, however, do require that the person setting up the business be a legal resident.

    Our business formation attorneys can assist you in filing the correct documents and choosing the right entity if you are not a legal resident or citizen of the United States.

  • A Limited Liability Company (LLC) protects you from personal liability. It means you literally have “limited liability” as an individual and that lawsuits will be directed at the business and not you individually.

    It’s also ideal for single-owner businesses, as it is effectively considered a partnership in terms of tax. It is a flow-through entity where members directly report their income, expenses, deductions, and potential losses. It effectively allows people to operate as a sole proprietor if they so wish, but without the liability that comes with that kind of set-up.

    Furthermore, an LLC does not have the same limitations as an S Corporation, meaning that members can make special allocations of income and losses.

  • Hiring a lawyer to start your LLC or corporation is always a wise idea. Not only will you avoid filing complex paperwork ranging from the articles or organization to various state regulatory requirements, you can rest assured that everything is filed correctly.

    Attorneys will walk you through the formation process or simply handle everything and show you where to sign. It’s the easiest and most responsible way to officially register a business operation in your state.

  • Entrusting the formation of your business with legal professionals is an important long-term investment. The cost depends on the kind of business you intend to run. For a simple LLC application, the costs of forming your business may be hundreds of dollars, but prices may rise to tens of thousands of dollars for the forming of more complex businesses with multiple investors and parties involved.

    At Sequoia Legal, we aim to keep costs manageable and competitive, allowing you to get your business running quickly.
