Formation Documents

Formation documents are official legal papers used to establish and register a business or organization. These documents typically include the articles of incorporation (or organization), which detail the company's name, purpose, structure, and other key information. Filing these documents with the appropriate state authority creates a legal entity, allowing the business to operate, enter contracts, and obtain licenses. Formation documents ensure the company's existence is officially recognized, provide a record for legal and administrative purposes, and often outline the rights and responsibilities of owners or members.
