How to get incorporated

Do not use an internet legal site. They are wrong most of the time.

Seek out alums first. I bet there is a tax attorney who can help you out. Accountants are not a good source. They try to do legal docs, but are not authorized to do so in many instances. It is risky. Too mant accountants try to go too far.

Also, you may be able to have someone help you out for free. I do it all the time if it is easy work, like this would be.

good luck.

Just curious... On what do you base that on? Have you had a bad experience? If so, which site?

Excellent idea. If the OP goes to a big University, there might also be some free legal help available at the law school. There might also be some free accounting help at the school's financial dept.

Incorporating isn't as difficult as it sounds. It's really quite straight forward.
With the advent of state sites which will walk you through the process step-by-step, it's really surprisingly easy. But as Kddani said, if you're not comfortable with the process, best to seek out professional legal help.

An accountant doesn't need to set up your corporation-- but he or she would be good to consult regarding tax issues.
