Business Formation and Planning

The free market is not a forgiving place, nor particularly kind to businesses that make critical planning mistakes during their incubation and development process. For these reasons, seeking the advice and counsel of an experienced business formation lawyer before making a costly mistake with your business start-up is not only a good decision — it's the right decision.

The same is true once your business is up and running. Sound business formation legal advice from our corporate team can help you ultimately reach your business goals.

At Douthit Frets Rouse Gentile & Rhodes LLC, we represent entrepreneurs and businesses in the greater Kansas City metropolitan area and throughout the surrounding region of Missouri and Kansas. What we provide is knowledgeable guidance and advice based on years of experience and services that have been proven to be effective in helping clients build the strong foundations and plans they will need for success.

Our business formation practice involves a full range of entity choice, including:

• Sole Proprietorships
• Limited Partnerships (LPs)
• Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs)
• Limited Liability Companies (LLCs)
• S-Corporations
• C-Corporations
• All other types of business organizations

Whether you've only just come up with an idea, have already developed a well-thought out business plan or have a on-going business entity, our attorneys will take the time to explain your options, answer your questions and help you to make the right decisions you need to make to achieve your goals as a business owner.

This kind of personal attention is something you will be hard-pressed to find at larger firms.

Our business practice includes top attorneys who came to us from some of the most prestigious firms in the region after having grown tired and frustrated by the internal politics, conflicts of interest, and impersonal client-service they were able to provide at the large law firms. Today, their big firm experience can yield enormous dividends for your business while providing you with the kind of responsiveness and accessibility you can't get at any other law firm.
