Form your California LLC or corporation and set it up right, from the very first day, with a California attorney who explains every step.
Clear guidance without the jargon, so you always know where you stand.
Starting a company in California means getting the foundation right from day one. We form your LLC or corporation correctly, so you are protected and compliant from the start.
We help you decide between an LLC, an S-corporation, or another structure based on how you want to be taxed and run the business, then handle the formation, operating agreement or bylaws, EIN, and the initial Statement of Information. We also make sure you understand new rules like the Corporate Transparency Act.
Donald W. Flaig sets your business up personally and explains each step in plain English. The first conversation is free.
Forming a company in California is more than filing a single form. We help you choose the right structure for how you want to be taxed and run the business, then handle the formation cleanly: the filing, the operating agreement or bylaws, the EIN, and the initial Statement of Information.
We also walk you through the obligations that come after formation, so you stay compliant from day one. You leave with a business that is set up correctly and a clear understanding of what you own and what you owe.
