Frequently asked questions

These are different choices. An LLC is a legal entity under state law, while an S corporation is a federal tax election that an eligible LLC or corporation can make. The right answer depends on your risk, expected profit, and ownership.

Should I form an LLC or an S corporation?

When should a new business talk to a CPA?

The best time is before year-end, while decisions can still change the result. Most planning opportunities are gone by the time you file.

Do you draft legal documents?
