Company Formation and Start-up Setup
One of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make is starting a business. The process of starting a business can be overwhelming, whether you’re a budding entrepreneur, a free-lancer ready to take the plunge, or a team ambitiously launching a new start-up. There are many steps to take to ensure you avoid making mistakes. From selecting the right structure, to tax registrations, to compliance.

Why Proper company formation is Important
Your business structure has a huge impact on everything – your tax obligations, your liability and your ability to raise money. It can even affect how your clients view your brand. The wrong structure, or failing to register important documents, can result in penalties, inefficiency, and unneeded costs. It’s important to hire a small-business accountant that understands the financial and legal implications.
