Keatinge and Conaway on Choice of Business Entity: Selecting Form and Structure for a Closely-Held Business, 2010 ed.

This book, written from the client's point of view, provides a three-part analysis of different business entity formats, and which to choose depending on the business activities and the needs of the owners. The three approaches are: horizontal-comparing the various characteristics of different entities and structures; vertical-identifying the characteristics that are important to a particular type of business (it is this analysis that distinguishes this book from the discussions of entity choice found in other publications); and integrational-assisting the practitioner to resolve conflicts and make the final choices necessary to select and structure the organization.
