Organizing Your Phoenix Business

Phoenix Business Lawyers at Denton Peterson PC

The legal entity you choose for your business and its setup are some of the most important decisions you can make. The type of entity you choose and its organization determine how you will be taxed (both personally and for your business), how profits will be shared, the extent of your protection from the actions and liabilities of your business, who can make decisions for the business, and more. If you make the wrong decision about the type and setup of your entity, it could cost you dearly.

An experienced Phoenix business lawyer from Denton Peterson Dunn, PLLC understands how each of the options can affect the day-to-day operations and impact your long-term goals. Your attorney will help you choose the right entity option to meet your goals. Some options include:

Many variations of these entities are available, as well, and your business lawyer will help you understand the benefits and disadvantages of each. If your business grows or needs change, our Arizona business attorneys can help you reorganize your business to create the new entity that works best for you.

Our firm also helps companies based outside of Arizona to organize entities in the state or to form franchises here. We can help you apply for trade names and ensure that the proper documents are filed to structure your business.
