The Advantages of Formally Registering Your Business

In creating your new business venture, all the legal requirements have to be complied with, including documents that have to be filed and the corresponding fees that have to be paid. In certain instances, you're also required to meet additional "publicity" requirements. 

These legal preconditions vary, depending on the type of business formation that you choose and the state where you formed your business venture.

With a dependable lawyer by your side, you can rest assured that you have someone with the legal know-how to assist you in complying with all the legal requirements for your new business to operate.

Among the advantages that you are entitled to once you have complied with all the requirements to have your business formally registered are the following:

• You get to take advantage of limited liability, as it establishes a legal distinction between you as an individual owner and your business venture as a separate entity. With this, you are protected from liabilities resulting from the debts and other issues of your business.
• You get to enjoy tax benefits, which equate to significant savings when you choose the proper entity form and tax structure for your business.
• You establish your business' reputation as a legitimate venture, which plays a significant role in the eyes of key stakeholders and third parties such as customers, vendors, investors, and others.
