Types of Entities

Sole Proprietorships. A sole proprietorship consists of a single individual who owns and operates a business, typically using his or her own assets. This is the simplest form of business ownership, however, a sole proprietor faces unlimited personal liability for all debts and obligations of the business. General Partnership. A general partnership is an association of two or more persons who have chosen to carry on as co-owners of a business for profit. Partners in a partnership are jointly and severally liable for all debts and obligations of the partnership. Limited Liability Company (LLC). An LLC is a hybrid business entity that provides its members with limited liability as if they were shareholders of a corporation but treats the entity and its members as a partnership for tax purposes. An LLC offers many of the best features of a partnership combined with the best features of a corporation. Corporation. A corporation is a legal entity that exists separately from and independent of its owners. A corporation has many of the same powers, rights, and duties of a natural person. The benefit of this business entity is that neither the shareholders nor the officers of members of the board are personally liable for the corporation’s debts and obligations, unless they have personally guaranteed those obligations or unless the corporate “veil” can be “pierced.”
