Why Would I Incorporate?
A corporation is a separate entity. This entity acts like
another person. If done properly this can protect you and
your personal possessions. There are also tax advantages that
may accrue because of the incorporation.
What Is The Most Common Business Entity Today?
Your choice of business entity is important because it will affect your business for accounting and tax purposes, ease of business operation and protection of you from personal liability for business debts. Corporations and Limited Liability Companies (LLC) are by far the most common types of organizations used today.

How Long Does It Take To Become Incorporated As A Corporation?

24 hours. By paying an extra filing fee to the Corporation
Commission, approval can be obtained in 72 hours. Unlike the

E. Campbell, P.C. does not stop its representation here. We
also obtain your corporate minute book, handle the publication
of your articles, prepare your by-laws, and conduct your initial
shareholders and directors meetings. In order to gain the
benefits of incorporation, you must complete all your corporate
formalities and start acting like a corporation. Mr. Campbell
makes sure that you are ready to do this.

whether any officers have been involved in a bankruptcy, or been convicted of a felony
names of initial directors
physical address of the business
