Business Formation in Missouri

Attorneys at Hendren Andrae assist people with the purchase, sale or formation of a business, including business incorporation or organization, creation of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC) or partnership of any kind. Many businesses can benefit from the limited liability afforded by the State of Missouri by forming a business organization in which to pursue their interests. The organization may take the form of a Corporation, Statutory Close Corporation, Limited Liability Company, Limited Liability General Partnership, or Limited Liability Limited Partnership under Missouri law.

The choice of organization is partly driven by income tax considerations. The attorneys at Hendren Andrae work closely with the income tax advisor or accountant of the client in order to assist in making the appropriate choice of business organization. The goal is to provide the appropriate organization with the required documentation and train the officers, members, managers, or partners so that limited liability may be maintained in accordance with law. Many people have made the mistake of assuming that the limited liability is afforded once the Articles of Incorporation, Articles of Organization, or Partnership Agreement is filed with the Secretary of State. The statutes generally require that other documentation exist and be maintained in order for the business to enjoy limited liability.
