Legal Support Throughout All Stages Of Your Business

Legal questions plague business owners long after the first doors open. Maybe you need help selecting a business structure, drafting contracts, adding a new owner, acquiring another company, or resolving a dispute. O’Flaherty Law collaborates with Elgin entrepreneurs and established businesses to deliver practical solutions that are specifically tailored to their goals, industry and growth plans.

Deciding Between an LLC and a Corporation

How you structure your business can impact your personal liability, management rights, tax filings and how ownership can be transferred. Generally, to form an Illinois LLC you will need to file Articles of Organization and maintain an Illinois registered agent and registered office. Corporations have their own requirements for formation, reporting, directors and shareholders. Our attorneys will be able to explain the differences and help prepare operating agreements, bylaws, ownership documents and other records designed for the way your business will operate.

Building a Business That Is Ready for Change

A good business plan does more than just fill out the paperwork to form the company. Clear contracts and ownership agreements can help clear up confusion when a customer doesn’t pay, a partner wants out, or the company needs additional funding. O’Flaherty Law can help with commercial contracts, business acquisitions, corporate documents, annual compliance issues, succession planning, and disputes. We want to be clear so that you know what your options are and you can make informed decisions.
