Forming a Nebraska Corporation?
One of the main reasons that small businesses form a corporation in Nebraska is for liability protection of their personal assets. Corporations are separate legal entitities, separate from the owners/shareholders and when correctly the owners/shareholders of a Nebraska corporation are not held liable for the debts of the corporation.
Tips for naming your Nebraska corporation
Any business that is incorporated in Nebraska must have the words, “Corporation”, “Incorporated”, “Company” or the abbreviation attached to the ending of their business name. No other Corporation may use or name of another Corporation already in existence or active in the state of Nebraska. All business names must be distinguishable from other business names on file with the state. Names that are too similar as to cause any confusion between similarly named companies will be rejected.
Corporation Articles of Incorporation
To file a corporation, you must prepare articles of incorporation. It is important that the articles are prepared correctly. Many times when individuals prepare these documents themselves the articles often returned because they were not filled out correctly.
We at Incorporate Fast have been doing this for years and we make sure that the documents are completed accurately. This insures that the documents will not be sent back to us. Our dedicated staff reviews each document that we submit to the state.
Corporation Good Standing
When filing with the Secretary of State, the initial filing isn't the only thing that you must do for a corporation. You must maintain the corporation by paying annual fees. These fees ensure that the company will maintain good standing with the state. Failure to keep the company in good standing may result in dissolution.
