  •             "S" or pass-through

  •             "LLC" or Limited Liability Corporation

  •         Partnerships

  •             General

  •             Limited

  •             "LLP" or Limited Liability Partnership

  •             "FLP" or Family Limited Partnership

  •         Trusts

  •             "Grantor"

  •             "Pass-Through"

  •             "Marital Deduction"

  •             "Simple' versus "Complex"

  •         Estates

Bowen, P.C. assists in thinking straight and providing straight talk involving the following areas of Entity Structuring:
