Business Formation Attorney in Omaha

LLC, Corporation, Partnership, Or Sole Proprietor?

If you're looking to start a business in Omaha, Decker Law Offices will help you choose an entity that fits your goals and risk profile. Many small businesses prefer an LLC for liability protection and flexible taxation, while corporations (C-Corp or S-Corp election) can suit growth and investment. Partnerships and sole proprietorships are simpler but expose owners to more risk. The right structure affects taxes, ownership, and daily operations, so clear legal advice matters from day one in neighborhoods from the Old Market to Midtown Crossing and Blackstone.

Our Business Formation Services

From Name Check To Operating Agreement

We handle name availability searches, prepare and file Articles of Organization or Incorporation with the Nebraska Secretary of State, obtain your EIN, and craft internal documents-like an operating agreement or bylaws-to avoid future disputes. For multi-owner ventures, we document capital contributions, decision-making rules, and buyout provisions so expectations are clear before you open your doors.

Compliance from Day One

Licenses, Taxes, And Ongoing Filings

Beyond formation, we register with the Nebraska Department of Revenue when needed, guide sales and payroll tax setup, and advise on local licenses or permits. We also outline ongoing responsibilities-like biennial reports for Nebraska LLCs and record-keeping-so your company stays in good standing.
