Starting a business - become an entrepeneur

Starting a business involves planning, making key financial decisions, and completing a series of legal activities. Thus establishing your own company and become self-employed might take a long time.

There are multiple steps involved in the process of incorporating a business. Some of these steps are listed below, but all are best handled by an experienced business lawyer:

  1. Writing a business plan
  2. Funding the business
  3. Approval of the company name
  4. Choosing a business structure
  5. Protecting the personal assets (No matter what structure turns out to be best for a business, it’s essential to structure it in a way that limits the personal liability and protects the non-business assets)
  6. Register a business
  7. Establishing Ownership Responsibilities
  8. Creating Internal Bylaws
  9. Creating Vendor Contracts
  10. Navigating Tax Issues

In our days, founding a startup is a lot of work and the founder of a company is confronted with a number of uncertainties, risks, and challenges. We will be pleased to advise you in all aspects. We have years of experience dealing with startups and would like to help you build a thriving business and ensure that your interests are protected through well-drafted contracts and intellectual property filings.

With us, your dream of self-employment comes true!
