There are many Ohio entity formations to explore when establishing your new business. Some include:
- Corporation
- Limited Liability Company (LLC)

Choosing the Right Business Entity for Your Business
Besides limited liability, business owners should consider issues such as:

- Number of owners required
- Capital structure
- Profits
- Voting
- Management
- Transferability of interests
