Raising Capital for Your Business

Financing is a major hurdle at the juncture where ideas meet reality. Without sufficient capital, even the most carefully thought-out business idea might never take off. Getting adequate funding — from the right sources — is a key milestone in the formation of a new business enterprise.

We can help

Helping Businesses Take Flight

This crucial step will affect many aspects of your business’s operation, financing, and governance. Choosing the right entity — whether an S or C corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or proprietorship — involves complex considerations. How do you want equity interests to be allocated between the founders, investors, and employees? Which makes the most sense from a tax perspective? Which will place your business in the best position for future growth and success?

We will explain the pros and cons of these choices to help you make an informed decision.
