Business Business Formation & Succession Services
Sole Proprietorships
A sole proprietorship is the simplest and most common form of business entity, offering ease of formation and direct control by the owner.
We assist clients with registering their sole proprietorships, ensuring compliance with all local, state, and federal requirements, and advising on the best practices to protect personal assets. If you’re looking to run your business on your own terms, we’ll help you navigate the process.
Partnerships
A partnership is an excellent option for two or more individuals looking to share ownership and responsibilities in a business. Our firm helps clients establish partnerships, draft partnership agreements, and understand the advantages and risks involved.
We guide you through the different types of partnerships (general, limited, and joint ventures), ensuring that your business relationship is built on a solid legal foundation.
Subchapter S Corporations
Subchapter S Corporations allow business owners to enjoy the benefits of limited liability while avoiding double taxation. If you’re considering electing S Corporation status for your business, our attorneys will help you meet the IRS requirements, draft necessary paperwork, and ensure that you understand the operational and tax implications. We provide thorough guidance on shareholder agreements, distributions, and compliance with ongoing corporate formalities.
Limited Liability Companies (LLCs)
LLCs combine the flexibility of a partnership with the liability protection of a corporation, making them a popular choice for many small businesses. We assist clients with forming LLCs, drafting operating agreements, and ensuring compliance with state laws. Whether you’re a single-member LLC or part of a multi-member entity, we’ll help structure your business to meet your unique needs and goals.
Professional Limited Liability Companies (PLLCs)
For licensed professionals such as doctors, attorneys, accountants, and architects, a PLLC offers the benefits of limited liability while maintaining the required professional licensing.
Our firm helps clients in regulated industries establish PLLCs, navigate the specific state and professional requirements, and ensure compliance with ethical and legal standards.
Family Limited Partnerships (FLPs)
Family Limited Partnerships are commonly used for estate planning and asset protection. They allow families to retain control of family-owned businesses or assets while transferring wealth to future generations.
We help families establish FLPs, draft partnership agreements, and navigate tax and succession planning strategies to protect assets and minimize potential conflicts.
Succession Planning
Just as individuals need a legacy plan, businesses need a succession plan to ensure their continued success and growth. Business succession planning involves creating a clear strategy for what happens to a company in the event of the death, retirement, or incapacity of the owner(s). It provides a roadmap for transferring ownership, management, and control, ensuring a smooth transition and the long-term viability of the business.
To ensure that the business continues to thrive after your exit, we typically employ the following succession tools:
Buy-Sell Agreements
Promotion internally
Life insurance to allow employees to purchase the company
Partnership buy-outs
Locating possible partners for a merger
Placing ownership in a trust
Whether you're a small business owner or part of a larger organization, having a solid succession plan is essential to protect the future of your company. McCall Law Group, PLLC works closely with business owners to craft personalized plans that address key issues such as identifying potential successors, structuring ownership transitions, minimizing tax implications, and addressing family dynamics or key employee retention.
Don’t leave the future of your company up to chance. Together, we will develop a comprehensive succession plan that safeguards your legacy, facilitates a seamless ownership transfer, and sets your business up for continued success.
