Assisting in the Formation of New Businesses in NYC, Bergen County & Across New Jersey
If you are an entrepreneur or have a great idea and resources with which to form a business, you may be confused about what to do first or how to get started. You may have heard of others who are effectively winging it and conducting businesses without any formal paperwork. While there are scenarios where you can effectively create a startup business without much documentation, you open yourself up to tremendous liability in doing so, especially as the business grows.

Startup Formation and Financing in New Jersey
Our lawyers have a thorough understanding of the advantages of each business entity type and are prepared to advise you on what structure is suited for your short- and long-term goals. Formally creating a business entity can grant the business owners protections and other benefits, including management structure, tax efficiency, and limited personal liability in the event of a lawsuit.
Our New Jersey startup lawyers can help you form any of the following:
- General Partnerships
- Limited Partnerships
- Limited Liability Partnerships
- Limited Liability Companies
- C or S Corporations
- Professional Corporations
- Family Business Entities
Each of these entities has different formation and registration requirements. Some, like corporations, require additional documentation that forms the bedrock of how your company will operate, including corporate articles and bylaws, buy/sell agreements, and shareholder agreements. Even “simpler” entity types generally require operating agreements, which should be rigorously scrutinized to ensure the legally enforceable language protects your interests and is consistent with your goals and those of the other members
