The issue of incorporating in Florida with non-lawyer agencies is that you are organizing a legal entity, and those services can&#8217;t give you the legal advice that you will eventually need (preferably sooner than later) to avoid losses, save you money now and in the long-run, and put you in an advantageous position to protect yourself, your business, and your assets. <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\" style=\"border-top:solid 1px black; border-bottom:solid 1px black; padding:20px; margin-top:20px\">We&#8217;ve designed an incorporation program unmatched by any other in the country. Our mission is to provide an entrepreneur with everything they need when they incorporate in Florida; custom articles of incorporation with special provisions that will give you the upper hand while protecting your business, a complete corporate kit with a seal and book, bylaws, minutes, stock certificates, and more\u2014and the legal advice that will give you awareness on what it is you can and can&#8217;t do, what business licenses you need, and where the pitfalls are in your jurisdiction. Our goal is to do this for a price lower than our competitors, and in the future continue to provide support for your business when you need to start, expand, buy, sell a business, or need legal representation!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class='col col-4-of-12' style=\"padding:20px\">\n<div style=\"font-size:15px; border:solid 1px black\">\n<h3 style=\"border-bottom:solid 1px gold; text-align:center; font-size:20px; margin-top:0px; padding-top:0px\">Contents<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#howtoincorporate\">How to Incorporate<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#incorporateabusiness\">Incorporate a Business<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#whyincorporate\">Why Incorporate in Florida<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#costtoincorporate\">Cost to Incorporate in Florida<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#corporaterecordsbook\">Corporate Records Book and Seal<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#assetprotection\">Asset Protection<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#buycorporation\">Buy a Corporation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#expandcorporation\">Expand a Corporation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#sellcorporation\">Sell a Corporation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#mergecorporation\">Merge Corporations<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#getfictitiousname\">Get a Fictitious Name<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#taxadvantages\">Tax Advantages<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#relevantissues\">Relevant Issues<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"\">\n<h2 id=\"howtoincorporate\" style=\"font-family:'arial black'; width:fit-content; margin-bottom:0px; margin-top:10px; padding-top:0px\">HOW TO INCORPORATE IN FLORIDA<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\" style=\"margin-top:10px\">There are several options available for entrepreneurs researching how to incorporate in Florida, but not all are equal in value and benefits or advice:<\/p>\n<div class='grid' style=\"background-color:#203366; color:white; padding:20px; border-top: double 10px white; border-bottom: double 4px white\">\n<div class='col col-3-of-12'>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/amerilawyer-blog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/incorporate-by-yourself-icon.png\" alt=\"incorporate-in-florida-by-yourself\" width=\"275\" height=\"auto\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/incorporate-by-yourself-icon.png 807w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/incorporate-by-yourself-icon-300x249.png 300w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/incorporate-by-yourself-icon-768x637.png 768w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/incorporate-by-yourself-icon-144x119.png 144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 807px) 100vw, 807px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='col col-9-of-12' style=\"\">\n<h3>INCORPORATING BY YOURSELF<\/h3>\n<p align=\"justify\" style=\"\">First-time entrepreneurs might find it tempting to register their entity themselves (we don\u2019t recommend this!). Incorporating in Florida by yourself places the responsibility on you to form a legal entity. Additionally, only a lawyer will be able to advise you of the best legal structure and provisions to have in your articles of incorporation or organization. Others will try to cut corners by hiring a non-lawyer agency to prepare this legal formation. Many agencies will charge significantly more than our service. Entrepreneurs get notably more for a better price by incorporating with Spiegel &#038; Utrera, P.A. at AmeriLawyer.com. Spiegel &#038; Utrera, P.A. also offers free legal, business, credit, and tax advice with 110% lowest price guarantee when you incorporate.<\/p>\n<div class='col col-3-of-12'><b style=\"color:red; font-size:20px\">&#10007;<\/b> No Legal Advice<\/div>\n<div class='col col-3-of-12'><b style=\"color:red; font-size:20px\">&#10007;<\/b> No Corporate Kit<\/div>\n<div class='col col-3-of-12'><b style=\"color:red; font-size:20px\">&#10007;<\/b> No Stock Certificates<\/div>\n<div class='col col-3-of-12'><b style=\"color:red; font-size:20px\">&#10007;<\/b> No By-Laws<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='grid' style=\"background-color:#dcdcdc; color:black; padding:20px; border-top: solid 1px black; border-bottom: solid 1px black; margin-top:20px\">\n<div class='col col-3-of-12'>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/amerilawyer-blog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/non-lawyer-agency-icon.png\" alt=\"incorporate-with-a-non-lawyer-agency\" width=\"200\" height=\"auto\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/non-lawyer-agency-icon.png 704w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/non-lawyer-agency-icon-300x259.png 300w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/non-lawyer-agency-icon-144x124.png 144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='col col-9-of-12' style=\"\">\n<h3>INCORPORATING WITH A NON-LAWYER AGENCY<\/h3>\n<p align=\"justify\" style=\"\">Incorporating in Florida with a non-lawyer agency or service may help you file paperwork to start the incorporation process.

A primary factor that may deter small business owners from starting a C-Corporation is its requirement of having to file both a personal and business income tax return. Double taxation is a disadvantage for many\u2014but it ultimately depends on the multiple factors surrounding your business. When choosing a C-Corporation to incorporate a business in Florida, another point to consider are the higher maintenance costs due to annual state reports and fees.

Many other States ask for a generous State filing fee to get started, among other requirements and limitations that Florida doesn&#8217;t have. Unlike some other States; incorporating in Florida doesn&#8217;t require a minimum amount of capital under your corporation, and won&#8217;t demand more than one director\u2014making it easy to incorporate an S or C Corporation when you have limited resources and no one to include as a director of the corporation. Businesses that incorporate in Florida won&#8217;t cease to exist when the owner passes, making ownership easily transferrable to an heir or shareholder of the corporation.  Also, a Florida Corporation may still get revived years after having been administratively dissolved, within a few days of applying for reinstatement and paying the state fees. A primary reason to Incorporate in Florida is its lack of State taxation, which other States like Georgia require on top of the federal income tax return. <\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top:40px\">\n<h2 id=\"costtoincorporate\" style=\"font-family:'arial black'\">COST TO INCORPORATE IN FLORIDA<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">When determining the cost to incorporate in Florida, we have to look beyond the initial filing of the corporation\u2014and look at the long-term financial implications originating from your chosen method of incorporating and corporation type. Here are a few relevant factors to consider when evaluating the overall cost to incorporate in Florida:<\/p>\n<div class='grid'>\n<ul>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Registered Agents<\/b><br \/>\n<span align=\"justify\" style=\"\">Registered Agents are a mandatory item in your articles of incorporation. The state requires you to have a point of contact to receive official documentation and service of process, and P.O. boxes don&#8217;t fulfill this requirement. If you need a registered agent, you will have to consider that cost when incorporating in Florida.<\/span><\/li>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Legal Provisions<\/b><br \/>\n<span align=\"justify\">Does the business you&#8217;re starting benefit from special legal provisions in your articles of incorporation? If you&#8217;re incorporating in Florida by yourself or through a non-lawyer agency, the Articles of Incorporation may lack the provisions needed to protect yourself from future liabilities. One such provision would be an indemnification agreement, shielding you from burdens, losses, or damages\u2014while ensuring suitable compensation for any losses or damages you accrue. The potential risks and costs of not having special provisions when you incorporate in Florida is a factor that should get considered when determining what the incorporation might cost you overall.<\/span><\/li>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Mail-Forwarding Service<\/b><br \/>\n<span align=\"justify\">If you don&#8217;t have a physical location in Florida, you may need a mail-forwarding service with a physical location in the state. Registered agent services only forward official correspondence such as mail from state government and service of process, but are required. We can function as your physical address in Florida; efficiently processing and forwarding all mail and correspondence to you while meeting the need of having a physical location in the state.<\/span>\n<\/li>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Business License<\/b><br \/>\n<span align=\"justify\">Some businessmen and women don&#8217;t realize that they need a business license to operate when incorporating in Florida, which is another reason why doing it with a law firm over a non-lawyer agency is essential;  a corporate attorney will know what business licenses you need and help you avoid any negative legal implications, which are typically inexpensive to prevent, and very costly to overcome.<\/span>\n<\/li>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Legal Agreements, Advice, and Representation<\/b><br \/>\n<span align=\"justify\">The term \u201cbetter safe than sorry\u201d fall on deaf ears for entrepreneurs that choose to take shortcuts, procrastinate, and stay ignorant to their need for legal support. Most if not all entrepreneurs benefit from the protection of legal documents such as partnership agreements, operating agreements, shareholder agreements, leases, asset purchase agreements, proposal and service agreements, indemnification agreements, employment agreements, and other complex contractual documentation.<\/span>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"assetprotection\" style=\"font-family:'arial black'; margin-top:40px\">INCORPORATE IN FLORIDA FOR ASSET PROTECTION<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">Creating a business entity, such as a corporation, protects the owner with limited liability from all debts and claims placed on the business and provides an entrepreneur the opportunities to segregate the business assets from the personal. Many states allow entrepreneurs to exempt particular assets from claims and creditors but may be subject to specific limitations, including a threshold for the value of an asset to qualify for protection.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p align=\"justify\" style=\"border:solid 1px black; padding:10px\"><b style=\"\">Need an asset protection strategy?<\/b> Our law firm has many years of experience successfully helping people protect themselves and their wealth using Corporate and Estate Planning Law synergistically.

Let&#8217;s go over the different contents of a corporate kit and why you should be aware of their importance before you incorporate in Florida:<\/p>\n<div class='grid'>\n<div class='col col-8-of-12'>\n<ul>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Articles of Incorporation<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"text-align:justify\">The core item of a corporate records book is the Articles of Incorporation; a legal document attained when you incorporate in Florida, granting your business the legal entity status and existence as a corporation. The articles of incorporation contain all of the corporate and shareholder info, including any special and protective provisions you may want to add. <\/span>\n<\/li>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Corporate Minutes Book<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"text-align:justify\">The corporate minutes are the historical records of the meetings held by the corporation&#8217;s directors, shareholders, officers, or committees. An assigned person will keep records on every decision, outcome, or resolution discussed in that meeting and collect them into the corporate minutes&#8217; book. The corporate minutes may get asked for in significant legal and business matters such as IRS audits, raising capital, accounting, and court proceedings\u2014among others.<\/span>\n<\/li>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Corporate By-Laws<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"text-align:justify\">Corporate by-laws are the rules and regulations for the corporation. Every business requires guidelines in which to operate; by-laws direct those of authority in their duties to overlook and manage the corporation. By-laws will typically include a corporation&#8217;s purpose or mission, the officers&#8217; titles, duties, requirements, and privileges\u2014when, where, and how meetings will be held\u2014shares and stock info, among corporate processes and procedures.<\/span>\n<\/li>\n<li align=\"justify\">\n<b style=\"color:red\">Stock Certificates<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"text-align:justify\">A Corporate records book also contain stock certificates, which are legal documents declaring that you own shares of stock within a corporation. Corporate stock certificates get designed with complicated art designs to keep them from being copied or counterfeit, and they typically include an ID number and signatures from corporate authorities.<\/span>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class='col col-4-of-12'>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/amerilawyer-blog.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/s-corp-kit.png\" alt=\"incorporation-kit\" width=\"390\" height=\"auto\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12904\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/s-corp-kit.png 720w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/s-corp-kit-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/s-corp-kit-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/s-corp-kit-144x144.png 144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<div align=\"center\" style=\"padding:15px; width:fit-content\">\n<div align=\"center\" style=\"background-color:red; text-align:center; padding:10px; border-radius:5px; box-shadow:1px 2px 0px 0px #939393; border:1px solid #cdcdcd\"><b style=\"color:white; font-size:20px; font-family:'arial black'\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/corporate-kit\/\" style=\"color:white\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ORDER NOW &#8211; $29.95<\/b><\/a><\/b><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"buycorporation\" style=\"font-family:'arial black'\">BUY AN EXISTING CORPORATION IN FLORIDA INSTEAD OF INCORPORATING<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">A good option for those that don\u2019t have the time to incorporate, is to buy an existing Florida corporation\u2014also known as a shelf corporation or &#8220;Reddi Corp.&#8221; Shelf Corporations are an excellent option for those that need a corporate entity in Florida immediately or one that&#8217;s existed for a long time.

Once your fictitious name is registered, you can legally use your localized fictitious name on print ads, billboards, bus stops, etc. A fictitious name or &#8220;DBA&#8221; doesn&#8217;t form a new corporation or legal entity; it solely allows corporations to do business under various names. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amerilawyer.com\/dba.htm\" style=\"color: #203366; border-bottom:solid 1px gold; font-weight:900\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here<\/a> to Register your Fictitious Name.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"taxadvantages\" style=\"font-family:'arial black'\">TAX ADVANTAGES OF INCORPORATING IN FLORIDA<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">The goal of incorporating in Florida from a tax perspective\u2014is to transform as many non-deductible personal expenses into deductible business expenses.
