Do I need a lawyer to help me form an LLC?

A:

When forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC), technically you do not need a business attorney to help you. However, it is highly recommended to have the assistance of a small business lawyer in Texas so that you do not make any mistakes. When forming a business of any type—including an LLC, S corporation, C corporation, partnership, or more—it is critical for your company’s protection to ensure you dot I’s and cross your T’s. 

Mistakes can be made by using Internet forms to set up your own LLC, which could lead to tax penalties, no limited liability, and unprotected personal assets. The initial savings of doing it yourself can lead to more out-of-pocket costs if mistakes are made. For this reason, and for peace of mind, it is important to have an attorney help you choose the right entity for your needs and help you complete everything correctly. 

Our skilled Austin business attorneys can advise you on the correct choice of business entity to protect your assets and increase your worth. We have helped many clients with their business formation needs, from helping them set up their company correctly to drafting contracts so that the business they worked hard to establish is protected.
