Business Entity Tax Structuring

Choose the Right Structure. Maximize Tax Savings. Minimize Risk.

 

Selecting the right business entity is one of the most important financial and legal decisions you’ll make. Your choice affects your tax obligations, personal liability, reporting requirements, and long-term financial health.

 

At Silvia Ibrahim, CPA, we provide expert tax structuring guidance for startups, entrepreneurs, and established businesses — helping you choose, form, or restructure your entity for optimal tax efficiency.

 

Entity Types We Advise On:

 

• Sole Proprietorship

Ideal for freelancers and small-scale startups. Easy to form, but offers no legal separation from personal assets.

 

• Limited Liability Company (LLC)

Flexible and popular for small to medium-sized businesses. Protects personal assets and allows for pass-through taxation or corporate election.

 

• S Corporation (S-Corp)

Offers pass-through taxation and potential payroll tax savings for owners who work in the business. Requires IRS election and formal payroll setup.

 

• C Corporation (C-Corp)

Best for companies seeking outside investors, equity shares, or potential IPOs. Subject to double taxation, but offers broader tax planning tools and benefits.

 

• Partnerships (General or Limited)

Great for joint ventures and professional practices. We help structure capital contributions, profit-sharing, and partner tax responsibilities correctly.

 

Our Tax Structuring Services Include:

• Entity selection analysis based on your goals and income
• Comparison of tax implications for LLC, S-Corp, C-Corp, etc.
• IRS filings for S-Corp election (Form 2553)
• Consulting for restructuring an existing entity to improve tax position
• Coordination with attorneys and legal filing services if needed
• State and local compliance guidance for California and multi-state businesses

 

Who Should Consider Entity Structuring?

•     New entrepreneurs and startups
•     Freelancers and consultants scaling up
•     Existing businesses considering a change (e.g., sole prop to S-Corp)
