# **Forming Company**

- _Are you forming an LLC or a C-Corporation?_
- _Do you understand the differences and benefits of each?_
- _Will you form the entity in Delaware?_
- _Do you have a co-founder and how will you allocate equity in your company?_
- _Will founder equity vest?_
- _Did you form as a LLC but now are seeking outside capital so you need to convert to a C-Corporation?_
- _Are you an international company that need to flip into a Delaware C-Corporation as the parent company_

## Company Formation Lawyers

These and many more questions are essential to consider before launching your startup. As company formation lawyers, we can help you navigate these and other critical business decisions and take the journey with you, from the launch phase to raising capital to the growth phase and beyond.  
Startup companies who have legal consulting services from inception have a distinct advantage over businesses who only want to handle due diligence and ensure they are legally sound and protected once they are up and running; which can be quite costly down the road.  
With NEXT, you will not only have an experienced legal team to protect your interests but a dedicated partner committed to your success.  
We understand well the needs of new and emerging companies and can help them avoid the pitfalls that hinder and, unfortunately, often prematurely end new business ventures before they even have a chance to flourish.

NEXT’s fixed fee legal formation packages cover the most popular entity structures. We typically select Delaware as the jurisdiction of choice for our clients, but if needed, as company formation lawyers, we can also customize to your specific legal and business needs. Our formation packages is optimal for:

- LLC: Single Member & Multi Member
- C-Corp: Single Shareholder
- C-Corp: Multiple Shareholders
- Converting from an LLC to a C-Corp
- Cap Table Creation and Management in CARTA
- Stockholders’ Agreement for Multiple Shareholders
- International company flip into a Delaware C-Corp

### What our Clients Say

"NEXT has been there every step of the way to help guide us through our seed round. The team has been fantastic!"  
  
Julie MelnickFounder/CEO of Sky Squad

“NEXT has made raising outside capital affordable and eliminated the unpredictable costs of the fundraising process. I found the Legal Fundraising Package included strategic guidance on managing the fundraising process and contained all the documents I needed to handle my equity round at a fraction of the cost of traditional law firm hourly rate pricing.”  
  
Andrew Hoppin,Co-Founder and CEO of CoverUs

“As a first-time entrepreneur, I found NEXT to be a great value not only for the startup legal services I needed but for the connections to the business service providers and other ecosystem partners, too.”  
  
Dale Nirvani Pfeifer,CEO, Goodworld

"Since our earliest days, Shulman Rogers has been a trusted and capable partner for Doctor.com. Their NEXT platform afforded us access to a full range of legal talent and services for significantly less than the cost of hiring an in-house general counsel. This was particularly valuable in the early years when budgets were tight and our legal needs were diverse. Since then, NEXT has been able to scale with us as we’ve grown, supporting the business through multiple financings and ultimately a successful exit."
