5.0 out of 5 stars Great Information in Layman's Terms, June 6, 2007

By 

Joel B (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Form Your Own Texas Corporation with Disk (How to Form Your Own Texas Corporation (W/Disk)) (Paperback)

I first checked this out from our local library...it was so GREAT, I went out and bought one for my company. I did meet with several lawyers and accountants...the lawyer I choose told me I could incorporate by myself, which I did. I did have him review several critical documents, like the company bylaws, which was a template from this book. The book comes with a CD that has templates that you fill in the blanks...it also tells you in Layman's terms what the documents are and provides clear examples and steps on how to fill out the templates. I would highly recommend this and "The Corporate Minutes Book" (from the same author).

This book is easy to use and will save you much money. Very in-depth. I used it to form three different corps.

This review is from: How to Form Your Own Texas Corporation with Disk (How to Form Your Own Texas Corporation (W/Disk)) (Paperback)

Quite informative and well done. A much better approach than "Quicken Lawyer 2002 Business Deluxe" by Nolo Press, which is hastily put together and of low quality.
Use it to understand the subject, prepare your documents for review by a lawyer and have appropriate questions when meeting with your attorney. It will save you money and trouble. Nevertheless, I would be tempted to say that it would be hard to skip the attorney altogether based on this book.
