Entity Formation and Corporate Services
Corporate entity formation is often a necessary step to help protect the intellectual property you have developed.
Correct corporate can be especially important when there are multiple owners or inventors involved; having the proper entity structure, bylaws, and rules increases operating efficiency, minimizes liability, and reduces the risks and effects of internal and external disputes. Because a company may own copyright, trademark, and patent rights, its value increases with the size of its portfolio, making it more attractive to prospective buyers and more dangerous to would-be competitors. Companies are also vehicles for leveraging tax advantages; expenses in developing your intellectual property portfolio may be deducted in ways not possible if a venture is personal only.
