Representing Small Businesses in Brazoria County
If you are planning to start a new business or expand an existing one in Texas, one of your first stops should be at a lawyer's office. Launching a new business venture without protecting your personal assets or your existing business from liability is a risk that no one should take.
Brazoria County business law attorney Thad Davis guides small business owners through the process of organizing their business both for liability protection and for tax advantages.
Most small business owners in Texas choose one of the following types of business organization:
- Limited liability company (LLC), which is similar to a partnership but with liability protection for the owners
- C-corporation, which is a standard business corporation with liability protection that is taxed as separate entity
- S-corporation, which is similar to a C-corporation except that income or losses flow through to the shareholders, who are taxed as individuals
As your lawyer, Thad Davis will do more than simply file the documents to form your corporation or LLC. He will also advise you in the things you need to do to preserve your corporate shield. For example, if you form a corporation and fail to hold shareholder and annual meetings, you could lose your corporate shield and open yourself up to personal liability.
Helping Small Businesses Grow
Once your business is up and running, he can serve as your general legal counsel for services such as drafting lease agreements, buying or selling commercial real estate, and drafting and reviewing business contracts.
