Rodriques Law, PLLC helps clients to decide what entity to choose for their business needs, whether an LLC, partnership or corporation. As start-ups and emerging companies are often short on both cash and management resources, we help them to carefully consider the ongoing needs of the enterprise and carefully weigh the benefits and burdens of a particular business form. We counsel clients on the legal and administrative costs and complexity of formation and maintenance of each business form, including the tax issues.
We help clients overcome the challenges of raising capital, including venture capital funds. In addition, we counsel clients on the recruitment of key employees, which are vital to the successful business operations.
