Icon4 HELP!! Lawyers, CPAs, Doctors

My wife is a DDS and I'm thinking of opening a place for her. How should I incorporate the business? I'll be funding it using her license with hired help. That way, we can hopefully start a family.

1. Should I do a S Corp? C Corp? LLC? Professional Corp? Professional LLC Corp?
It will just be me and her for ownership. Any Ideas?
2. Should I incorporate in my state of CA or Delaware or Nevada? what's
better?

Depends on what your CPA and tax lawyer recommends. Your question is way too complex for this forum. However, there is probably one guy here that could answer your question, but he has been distracted with some new Hoover technology.

Get thee to a CPA. Then to a lawyer. Taking advice over the internet is like getting your dental work done by a cabdriver - just a bad idea. Good luck!

Stuff like this you need a face to face with a good CPA. You don't want to mess it up right from the get go. You are starting a business, you need a good lawyer, CPA & Banker in your corner.
It is a small investment up front, but will pay off in the long run.
Trust me, i do this for my clients ( i am a CGA ( Canada's version of a CPA)),
Best of luck.
Don't just call one from the phone book, ask business people in your area who they use & if they are happy with them.
You should get a free consultation up front. Don't expect any advise during this meeting, but rather an interview process to make sure the two of you get along & will meld together to forge forward.

C-Corp.....Possible double taxation...i.e. dividends.

S-Corp....Cannot own Real Estate. Some savings on the Medicare portion, which has no W-2 limits, and is 1.45%.

LLC....Best for real estate transactions/holdings/ownership.

Just scratched the surface and food for thought.

What do I know anyway.
