Expert Information on LLC Formation
Arriving at the Bizee and Rocket Lawyer Company Formation Websites
What can you expect when you visit the websites for the first time?
Bizze's
Front page is clear and easy to understand, getting you straight into the process of starting a business. Incfile starts by asking you about the type of entity you want to create and providing information for each one.
Rocket Lawyer
provides services besides business formation, including wills, real estate and other legal services. As a result, finding information on company formation is a little more complex.
Comparing Different Business Entity Types
Prospective business owners will need to review their options when deciding on the right business structure, such as LLC, S Corporation or C Corporation. It’s important to have the right information so you can make an informed, educated choice.
Bizee's
has dedicated pages on each entity type, from LLCs to C Corporations, plus an interactive Business Entity Quiz designed to give a prospective business owner deep insight into the business structure that’s best for them. It also has an overview page and comparison chart highlighting the key benefits and drawbacks for each type of business entity.
Rocket Lawyer
also has an entity comparison page, although it’s not quite as detailed as Bizee’s.
Bizee has a large collection of helpful guides and documents to assist prospective business owners. Rocket Lawyer does have a blog and support guide with a reasonable level of detail.
Rocket Lawyer is considerably more expensive than Bizee and does not offer as wide a range of incorporation services.
