How to Start a Business in Michigan

Berry Law Offices can assist you in starting your business and guide you through the process along every step of the way. We can assist you in preparing and filing your corporate documents with the State of Michigan as well as preparing the secondary documents that are also necessary. While many people believe that they can simply fill out a form themselves to create a business, they undoubtedly neglect to prepare secondary documents (i.e. shareholder agreements, operating agreements, bylaws, etc.). Other common mistakes include: failure to adhere to requirements imposed by tax regulations; failure to obtain necessary licenses; failure to comply with local ordinances; and violations of zoning ordinances. We seek to fully protect our clients by advising them of the requirements necessary in creating and operating their business and to assist them in complying with such. We will also advise the client as to other "non-legal" matters such as preparing a business plan, obtaining insurance, accounting practices, and marketing strategy. In essence, we want to create a relationship with our clients that fosters the ability to help them grow the business and become successful.
