Business Formation in Sammamish, WA

What We Offer

Starting a business involves more than just filing a form. We walk through each step with you — from choosing the right business structure to applying for your EIN and getting your financial system in place.

• Help selecting your structure (LLC, sole proprietorship, or S-Corp)
• Filing with the Washington Secretary of State
• EIN application and state licensing guidance
• Basic bookkeeping system setup (QuickBooks or spreadsheet)

Why Your Structure Matters

The way you set up your business affects how you pay taxes, manage risk, and grow. We explain your options clearly and tailor our recommendations to how you actually plan to work — whether you’re a solo contractor or building a small team.

Who We Work With

We’ve helped tradespeople, freelancers, and small service providers across Sammamish and the Eastside start their businesses. Most clients are:

• Starting their first solo venture
• Transitioning from side work to full-time
• Looking for a clean financial foundation before hiring an accountant

What to Expect

You’ll meet with us to talk through your business goals and what kind of structure makes sense. From there, we’ll handle the filings, provide guidance, and get your books ready to go. Everything is explained in plain terms with no upsells or surprises.

FAQ

Do I need an LLC to get started?
Not always. We’ll help you decide based on how your business operates, your level of risk, and your long-term plans.

Can you file everything for me?
Yes. We file with the Secretary of State, apply for your EIN, and help you understand what to keep track of.

Do you also offer bookkeeping once I'm set up?
Yes — many of our business formation clients continue with monthly bookkeeping once they’re up and running.

Can this be done remotely?
Yes. We can meet locally or handle the entire process virtually depending on what works best for you.
