Legal Question in Business Law in Florida
Ficticious name or corporation
What are the differences and benefits of a ficticious name, corporation, and limited liability corporation? When starting a small, mail-order, on-line retail cosmetics business, what is legally necessary to begin this business?
Thanks!

A complete reply is beyond the scope of this service. Suffice it to say, I urge the use of a corporate vehicle for your business. I also urge you to consult with competent counsel prior to proceding

At this stage an LLC is the way to go. It limits liability to the LLC and gives you tax & operating advantages of a partnership. Fictitious name gives no protection since you must file a business certificate which has all your personal information. Good luck in your new business.
