WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
Dear Friends,
Have you ever considered the enormous implications of being sued?  What effect it could have on your financial health, your lifestyle, your very existence?  Can you afford to find out?  It's not enough to be "right"!  The party suing you may not have a valid case - and you could still lose everything!  In today's litigious business climate you never know what to expect!  Why put yourself at risk?  Why take a chance?  Small business or large; are you protected?  Nevada's Corporate Laws can protect you completely! 

Have I got your attention?  It's scary to think that all the assets you have worked so hard to acquire can be taken away!  How can this happen?  There is a saying you may have already heard: "In the after-life we have justice, in this life we have the law!" The law can work for, or against, you!  Are you willing to put everything you own at risk?  Remember: the courts are not about Justice - they are about "applying" the law.  You can be 100% "in the right" and still lose everything you have worked so hard to acquire.  You MUST protect yourself!  You must know "how to" properly incorporate yourself and/or your business as a legal corporate entity.  There is no better way to protect your assets, your family, your very livelihood than to set up the proper legal entity in the state of Nevada.

However, just because you choose to incorporate doesn't mean you have complete asset protection!  Avoid the mistakes others make (Never do it yourself).  You must know which kind of corporate entity will provide you with minimal liability.  Each business situation, whether a small business or large, presents different unique needs, and therefore must be addressed in part, not in whole.  Are you an attorney or tax expert?  Would you feel comfortable representing yourself ALONE  in a court of law against a team of seasoned attorneys?  If not then you should consult us and learn how to protect yourself! In today's business climate people are ready to sue you at the drop of a hat!  Many of these lawsuits are frivolous, but never the less expensive!  To ensure minimal liability you MUST protect yourself and your assets. Incorporating in Nevada makes it extremely difficult for individuals filing frivolous lawsuits to even figure out who to sue.  If by chance (and the chances are extremely slim as long as you have not committed fraud) they do figure out who to sue, it won't matter because your assets will be protected if you have chosen the right Nevada Corporate Entity.

It is nearly impossible to "Pierce the corporate veil" in the State of Nevada.  Don't you owe it to yourself, your business partners, and your family to make sure you are protected by seeking the services of qualified legal counsel?

Protecting your assets is only one of many reasons Nevada's corporate structure is so attractive.  Another major advantage are the TAX SAVINGS BENEFITS.  The state of Nevada has no Income Tax!  An experienced Nevada Tax Consultant will explain to you the many additional Tax Savings benefits.  One strategy which benefits many "foreign corporations" is dividing assets between a Nevada Corporation and a corporation in your home state.  Will this strategy work for you?  Maybe you would be better served by having TWO Nevada Corporations and splitting your income between them.  Maybe your best strategy is to lease equipment and services back to your home state corporation.

Have you ever considered the benefits of total privacy?  Do you really want every Tom, Dick, and Harry in your Home State having the ability to easily find your personal information?  How about the Media?  Can your existing corporate structure prevent the media from unfairly invading your privacy?  Does your Home State provide privacy protection built into their corporate law?  Why should anyone have access to your finances? The right to privacy is protected with the right corporate structure.  Forming your corporate entity in Nevada can significantly reduce the ease with which anyone can intrude upon your financial matters.  Learn more about Privacy Protection.

Company incorporation facts:  Let's recap the important points...  Incorporating your business in Nevada will allow you to protect your assets (absolute minimal liability), ensure your privacy, and provide substantial tax savings in most cases.  There are a multitude of additional reasons why Nevada may be the best choice for your business or yourself.   Compare the benefits of Nevada Incorporation to incorporation in your home state, then ask yourself if you can afford not to take advantage of these powerful and compelling reasons to forming your next corporation in Nevada.

  • Limit your liability - better yet ELIMINATE YOUR liability with a Nevada Corporation

  • Should you move your business to Nevada or Stay in your own State? Do you know?

  • How much State Income Tax did your Corporation pay last year? Nevada - "0"!

  • Are shareholder (Owners) names published in existing corporate structure?

  • Can the "Corporate Veil" be pierced in your existing corporate structure?

  • Are you currently protected from frivolous lawsuits?

A BETTER LOOK AT SOME OF THE BENIFITS OF INCORPORATION IN NEVADA
Tax Benefits
Nevada corporations reap the benefits of some tremendous tax breaks compared to businesses incorporated in other states. For starters, there is no corporate income tax in Nevada. Additionally, Nevada businesses enjoy no franchise tax, no sales tax, no taxes on corporate shares and no personal income tax. Depending on the scope and nature of your business, these combined tax breaks can result in substantial savings that can be invested in growing your business.
 
Minimal Reporting & Disclosure Requirements
Another bonus of incorporating in Nevada is that the state has established a system to protect your company's privacy. Nevada itself has minimal reporting requirements. But unlike many other states, Nevada also does not have an information sharing agreement with the IRS. In other words, Nevada will not share your corporate information with the IRS and stockholders' names are not part of the public record. In Nevada, all that is on public record are the names of the corporation's officers and directors. If privacy is important to your business, Nevada is definitely an attractive option.
 
Small Business Advantages
Nevada has a number of significant advantages that are custom-built for small businesses. One advantage is that the minimum number of officers or directors in a Nevada corporation is one. That means you don't need to recruit people to serve as corporate officers or as members of a board. You can fulfill the requirements yourself. If your business is new, another advantage is that Nevada requires no minimum capital investment for incorporation. For a small business struggling to get off the ground, that alone makes Nevada worth exploring.
 
Geographic Flexibility
What if you want to incorporate in Nevada and live in another state? Can you do that? Absolutely! Stockholders, directors, and officers don't need to live or hold meetings in Nevada. In fact, they don't even need to be U.S. citizens.
 
Other Benefits
Nevada has other benefits as well. In Nevada, officers and directors of the corporation can be protected from personal liability for acts of the corporation, provided those acts are lawful. Nevada corporations can also issue stock in exchange for capital, services, personal property, real estate, leases, and options. The determination of value for these transactions is determined solely by the corporation's directors and their decision is final.

This means that 12% of corporations in Nevada are owned and operated by non-resident Nevadans. There are plenty of reasons why to incorporate your business in Nevada, some of them include:* No shares tax as well as franchise tax.
