There are many factors which need to be considered when starting up a new business. One of the first things you will need to consider is what form of business you will be setting up. Types of Form are:
- Sole Trader
- Limited Liability Partnership
- Limited Company
- Partnership
- Corporation
- Non-Profit Organisation
- Cooperative
Whilst we understand that all business partnerships start with the best intentions, we would highly recommend that all parties involved with the business enter into a partnership agreement. Having an agreement in place will minimize the chance of disputes.
There are many factors to consider when setting up your business. From a legal compliance point of view you may require a licence or permit to operate your business. Alternatively, if your business is a limited company with a number of shareholders then the shareholders may wish to enter an agreement to govern how certain decisions concerning the company are passed. This agreement is called a Shareholders Agreement and we can advise companies or individuals on preparing this.
This will largely depend on the needs of your business and how you intend to trade. If your business only operates online then you may decide against acquiring or leasing a commercial premises.
