The dissolution of a business is the process by which a company is legally dissolved. This means its property and assets are sold, its debts paid to the extent of assets available, and any remaining cash is distributed to the business organization's shareholders, members, or partners.
Among the federal requirements for business, dissolution is the final corporate tax return and the final employment tax returns including deposits of any monies owed.Reports that need to be filed include information about the proper disposal of business property, any like-kind exchanges of property, and information about changing the form of the business if that is the case.

Matthew is an excellent attorney. He is extremely intelligent, caring and will fight for you.
I hired Matthew after my husband unexpectedly died and my business partner decided that was the best time to remove me from the business bank accounts, corporate documents and terminate me. That was my darkest days and Matthew became my Knight in shining armor as he defended me.. His empathetic demeanor offered me emotional support as well.
I am eternally grateful and highly recommend Matthew.

I have used Matthew on several occasions. He is always very professional and he always researches everything to ensure that his work is bullet proof. All contracts that he has helped me with have proven to be a huge help to my business and provide me with the protection that I need. I would highly recommend him highly.

I was referred to Mathew through my company and I can honestly say he is the most professional, honest and caring person I've ever met. I was so nervous prior to meeting him due to the situation that I was facing and he made me feel so at ease. I am so ever grateful for his help. I Highly recommend him.

Matthew reviewed a contract that we had used previously and found several holes that could hurt our agency. Due to new contracts, we have to license all of our agents with Citizens. As such, when they write a policy it is in their name and the agency name. It is imperative that we have a strong contract that establishes that when they leave the policies stay with us. With Matthew's assistance, I now do not have any worries as to keeping all of my agencies polices.
