Here at Mecadon Law, we advise our clients on all issues of business, from forming businesses to structuring contracts to collecting debts.

Here are just some of the issues we commonly assist our business clients to navigate.

Incorporation

Incorporation refers to the legal formation of a corporation, most often an S corporation or C corporation. Incorporating involves filing the correct documents with all the right details. The type of corporation you form affects your future tax liabilities. This is where Mecadon Law can be an expert resource for you.

For example, if you’re wondering whether to incorporate as an S corps or C corps, here are the main differences:

S corporation – these business types are what are called pass-through entities, where federal income is taxed at the level of the business owners rather than the corporate level.

C corporation – C corporations are separately taxable entities and pay their taxes at the corporate level rather than at the shareholder level.

We can explain the tax structure for each type of corporation and help you decide on the best move for you and your business.

Partnerships

In some instances, you and another person or people may want to form a business partnership. This will allow you to share responsibilities and profits. You’ll have to go through a few steps to form a partnership business, including deciding what kind of partnership you want. Mecadon Law can help you determine if a general partnership, limited partnership, or other type of structure is best for you.

Contracts

Contracts are an almost daily aspect of running a business. When you need an experienced contract lawyer in Pittston, call us. We’ll help you to draft the language of your contracts so you are fully protected in all your business dealings.

Mergers and Acquisitions

If you are considering merging with or acquiring another business and consolidating its assets into your own, you’ll need a legal expert to make sure you proceed according to all laws and regulations. Mecadon Law is happy to guide you through these often complex processes.

Property

Businesses acquire new properties all the time, but you have certain tax considerations to think about when you do so. If you’re considering expanding your business’s property holdings, consult with Mecadon Law on your legal requirements.
