Business Formation and Advisement

CHOOSING THE PROPER BUSINESS ENTITY IS KEY

A business entity, or business structure, whether they be limited liability companies, corporations, limited partnerships, etc., generally allows for dual protection. Formation under the proper entity can protect your personal assets from liabilities incurred by the business. And likewise, it can also protect the business from your personal actions or creditors.

NEVADA BUSINESS ADVISEMENT WHEN YOU NEED IT MOST

Acquiring or selling a business can be a very exciting time, but the process can be complicated. Part of the consultation and representation value is to bring objectivity and clarity to an emotional time, which generally involves either making a living or establishing a retirement fund. Either scenario can be daunting, but we educate our clients on the potential options with their trusted team of advisors so that our clients can make the most prudent decision.

Properly vetting any acquisition or sale is vital. Additionally, any transaction must be properly structured in order to minimize any taxable events either by way of structured payment plans or by way of either an equity purchase or an asset purchase. The devil truly is in the details, and with thousands of transactions under our belt, our team at Handelin law has the experience to assist your next acquisition or sale.

CONTRACT FORMATION AND REVIEW

Contracts are integrated into our everyday lives, oftentimes without even realizing their impact, from everyday transactions, employment, business agreements, and leases. Unfortunately with the proliferation of the Internet, anyone can find a contract. However, the laws of contracts are very complicated and complex. We have drafted and reviewed hundreds of contracts and agreements for individuals and businesses. Let us put this experience to work for you.

MULTI-STATE BUSINESSES: NAVIGATING COMPLEXITIES

Businesses that currently operate, or plan to operate, in more than one state must look at the big picture while maintaining and following the local governmental requirements. As we often advise, think globally, but act locally. We can help you ensure you are serving your customers legally and without concern–regardless of where they may be.

ASSISTANCE WITH A NONPROFIT OR 501(C)(3)-501©(6) ENTITY

Business entities that are formed for charitable, educational, or other types of not-for-profit reasons have a wide variety of opportunities in Nevada. A non-profit entity is in reality, a two-step process. There are the state-level filings, and then the proper filings with the Internal Revenue Service in order to obtain the tax-exempt status. Failure to properly adhere to either state law, or the federal requirements, will jeopardize the tax-exempt status, and potentially the charitable contributions received by the entity.

At Handelin Law, we work to assist the non-profit entities, as represented by their board of directors, to ensure proper start-up best practices and maintain the entity to ensure the goals are met.
