Business Formation and Strategic Entity Architecture

Choosing the correct corporate form is the cornerstone of long-term liability protection and tax efficiency. Serving as knowledgeable business formation lawyers, Mark J. Kohler and his legal team guide clients through every phase of organizational structuring, including:

• Selecting optimal operating structures, including limited liability companies, S corporations, and C corporations, to avoid double taxation.
• Drafting customized operating agreements, bylaws, and shareholder agreements that prevent internal governance conflicts.
• Restructuring existing entities through corporate cleanups and multi-entity holding company models for maximum asset shielding.
• Integrating self-directed IRAs and Solo 401k plans with LLCs to achieve checkbook control over alternative real estate and private investments.

Comprehensive Estate Planning and Asset Protection

Building substantial wealth is only half the battle; ensuring that wealth passes smoothly to the next generation without devastating probate costs or unnecessary estate taxes is equally vital. As experienced estate planning lawyers and trusts lawyers, the practice designs robust foundations that withstand future claims. Clients receive personalized revocable living trusts that keep private assets out of public California probate courts, alongside pour-over wills, financial powers of attorney, and healthcare directives. For clients with high-exposure commercial enterprises, the firm implements privacy trusts and asset protection structures that insulate personal equity from business risks.

Tax Advisory and Proactive Audit Defense

Tax regulations change constantly, creating substantial pitfalls for unprepared business owners. Whether you need to find an estate planning lawyer or require urgent counsel regarding IRS tax compliance, Mark J. Kohler focuses on proactive planning rather than reactive compliance. The firm advises on real estate depreciation, passive loss rules, opportunity zones, and corporate tax deductions. When complex transactions or audits arise, having seasoned tax lawyers and contract lawyers in your corner guarantees that your rights are safeguarded under federal and California revenue statutes.
