A solid legal foundation is important for any new business. At the Jason M Sweny law firm, we have the skills and knowledge to advise you about the choices you have in establishing your new business

Jason M Sweny and his associates has represented businesses in the Houston area. Laws have changed in that time, but our commitment to service remains as strong as ever.

Choose the entity right for you. One of the first decisions you need to make for a new business is determining what type of entity will best suit your ownership, capitalization and long-term objectives. Types of business entities include:

• Sole proprietorship
• General partnership (GP)
• Limited partnership (LP)
• Limited liability partnership (LLP)
• Limited liability company (LLC)
• Corporation (subchapter "S" or "C")

Define business relationships at the start. Documents need to be in place to determine relationships among partners, with shareholders and with employees. How will matters be resolved going forward? What are the rights and responsibilities of officers and directors? Talk to an experienced business lawyer about crafting by-laws and determining the delegation of power.

As your business grows, changes and expands, Jason M Sweny will be available to help you with all the legal issues involved.
