Business formation

Register your new company the right way

Starting a business is exciting — until the paperwork. We set your company up correctly from day one: the right entity, your federal tax ID, and the filings you'll actually owe, all explained in plain language.

Registering a company looks like a single step — file some paperwork, get a certificate. In reality, the choices you make at the start quietly shape your taxes, your paperwork, and your risk for years. Get them right and the business runs smoothly. Get them wrong and you're paying to unwind it later.

The most common mistakes we see: picking an entity type because someone online said so rather than because it fits the situation, skipping the federal tax ID setup, and walking away without knowing what has to be filed in year one. A registration service will file the formation document and stop there — they don't tell you what comes next.

We set the whole thing up as a foundation, not just a certificate: the right structure for your goals, your EIN, and a clear picture of your ongoing obligations — handled by a licensed professional who's still there when tax season arrives.

Forming as a foreign owner? Non-residents have extra steps and a serious federal reporting requirement most services never mention. See our LLC for non-residents page.

Common questions

LLC, S-corp, or C-corp — which do I need?

It depends on your income, your plans, and whether you have partners or outside investors. Many small businesses start as an LLC, but not always. We'll walk you through the trade-offs for your specific case rather than giving a generic answer. See also our LLC vs S-corp page.

Can't I just use an online filing service?

You can file that way, but those services stop at the formation document. They don't advise on the right entity, handle your EIN strategy, or tell you what you'll owe afterward — which is where the costly mistakes happen.

What's an EIN and do I need one?

An EIN is your company's federal tax ID. Most businesses need one to open a bank account, hire, or file taxes. We obtain it as part of setup.

How long does registration take?

Formation itself is often quick, but timing varies. We'll give you a realistic timeline for your situation and handle the steps in the right order.

I'm not a U.S. resident — can you still help?

Yes. We work with foreign founders regularly. There are extra steps and an important reporting requirement — see our LLC for non-residents page.
