Closing or Selling a Business

Whether your business is being purchased or you've simply made the decision to close up shop, there are many steps involved when winding up a business. From different state authorities to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), you'll want to make sure you've notified all parties involved. The goal of dissolution, or winding up a business, is to minimize legal liability for the owners.

Depending on your type of company and the contracts and obligations you currently hold, there are many different steps required in closing a business. Some of the businesses we can assist in dissolving in the state of Pennsylvania include:

• Corporations (S-Corporations and C-Corporations)
• Partnerships (General and Limited)
• Limited Liability Companies
  
• Professional Companies
  
• Sole Proprietorships
