Choosing the Right Legal Structure for Your Business
Selecting the proper legal structure is one of the most important decisions a business owner will make—and it can shape everything from liability and risk exposure to long‑term stability. In this informative session, Steven Newton will guide entrepreneurs and small business owners through how corporate form directly impacts protection, operations, and growth.

Attendees will receive a practical overview of Title 14 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated (OCGA), with a focus on the distinctions between partnerships, limited liability companies (LLCs), corporations, and other business structures. Steven will break down how each structure functions, how it limits liability for business‑related actions, and what it means for safeguarding personal assets.

This session is especially valuable for new business owners or those considering restructuring. Participants will also learn best practices for maintaining a clear and defensible separation between business and personal assets—an essential safeguard for sustainable growth.
