HOLCOMB LAW FIRM, P.C.

I. Personal attention, in-depth experience, affordable legal services
I understand that your business deserves uncompromising attention to your unique business needs, prompt handling of time sensitive issues and consistent professional excellence. I strive to provide quality legal services at affordable rates for established businesses and start ups in northern Colorado. Aspiring entrepreneurs and existing businesses face the challenge of keeping up with an ever-changing business and legal marketplace. Oftentimes, individuals rush through the initial formation process without much thought, thereby setting themselves up for failure either financially or through lawsuits. Existing corporations and partnerships similarly fail to adequately protect their assets through the use of a sound litigation avoidance or risk management plan.

Your business deserves high-level attention and experience. Your commercial contract matters need the attention of an attorney who can provide competent advice and affordable legal fees. I am happy to provide that level of experience and attention at Holcomb Law Firm, P.C.

II. A business attorney for every stage in the life of your business
I handle business matters from choosing the appropriate entity for a business startup to handling corporate documents, contracts, disputes, and employment matters throughout the life of your business. I will help you manage the risks and deal with the legal issues that are a part of a thriving, growing business.

I handle the important legal matters that affect your business. If you need the services of an experienced and knowledgeable business law attorney, contact me for a free consultation about your legal needs.

III. Business Start-up
If you currently conduct business as a sole proprietor or a partnership, you are personally responsible for debts of the business. Limited Liability Company interest owners, and S-Corporation shareholders have some protection from being personally liable for business debts.

Prior to coming in for an appointment, you should select a name for you company. The name of your business cannot be the same as the name of another business entity on file with the Secretary of State. Please give me a call, and I'll go over with you on where to check name availability.

The name of your business must contain the words "Limited Liability Company" or "Corporation" or the abbreviation "LLC" or "Inc."

Upon verifying the availability of your company name, I'll draft for your review and approval the Articles of Organization or Articles of Incorporation. They will be filed with the Colorado Secretary of State.

The company should also have an LLC operating agreement or S-Corporation bylaws that govern the operation of the business. The agreement should be custom tailored to fit your specific business goals.

After formation, I'll then give you detailed information on the proper way of operating and paper-trailing its' operation to support its separate entity status and how to go about observing the legally required business formalities, financial records, and the determinations of the business through what is called the minutes.
