Who Handles Business Formation in Atlanta?

Starting a business in Atlanta is exciting, but it comes with important legal decisions. One of the first is choosing the right business structure—LLC, S-Corp, C-Corp, or partnership. Many Atlanta entrepreneurs turn to Glenn M. Lyon of MacGregor Lyon for guidance through this process.

Forming a business isn’t just about filing paperwork. The choice you make affects liability, taxes, and long-term growth. An LLC may offer flexibility and liability protection for small businesses, while a C-Corp is often the right choice for startups seeking outside investors. S-Corps can help business owners save on taxes, but they come with specific IRS rules and shareholder restrictions. Partnerships are straightforward to start but require carefully drafted agreements to avoid disputes.
