Legal Structure for a
Construction Company
Contractors have wrestled with the proper legal structure

for their company for years. There is no hard and fast
conclusion that works for everyone. There are, however a
few things to consider and review that may make the
decision easier.
Legal Structure for a Construction Company
Sole Proprietorship
This is the method chosen by most new businesses to get up and rolling. There is, however, no
difference between you and the company or your personal or business assets. Additionally, this
method offers virtually no legal protection for you from lawsuits and creditors. That means if you are
S
sued, both you and your company are open to attack and both your personal and business bank
accounts become the target.
Partnership
This is where two or more people get together and try to do business under the
umbrella of a "partnership". The legal aspects of the partnership are whatever the
P
partners want it to be.
A written contract is an important matter on how the partnership is set up, how it is to
be run and by whom. If no written contract is present, it will certainly end up in a
disagreement at some point in time.
Corporation
Corporation is where large scale of people are involved on a business or
project. Rules must be followed if you wish to remain bullet proof. If you
follow the rules, you are reasonably well protected.
C
The "C" corporation does have a downside and that is double taxation.
The corporation is taxed on income and if you take a dividend (pay, salary,
bonus) then you are taxed personally on that amount.
Requirements
Actual design begins with the architect's preparation of
schematic designs, the simple functional or space diagrams
Design that illustrate an analysis of the project requirements as set
out in the program. In preparing schematics, the architect's
intuition as an artist alternates with his or her objective
judgment as an engineer or scientist. Several solutions to
the design problem may be developed and presented to the
client.
The printed construction documents are then distributed to
various construction contractors for their bidding or
Bidding or negotiation. The purpose of this phase of the architect's
services is to select from among qualified contractors the
Negotiation one who will do the work shown and described in the
document for the lowest dollar figure. It usually takes
contractors about thirty days to assemble their figures,
whereupon they each submit their own bid to the client. The
qualified contractor who submits the lowest bid is then
selected by the client in consultation with the architect. An
owner-contractor agreement covering the construction of the
project is executed by the client and the selected contractor.
When the design development materials are approved, the
Construction architect prepares the final construction documents. These
include the working drawings and specifications that show or
Documents describe in detail all the work to be undertaken by the
building contractors in the construction of the project. Their
quality depends on the accuracy of cost estimates of the
work and the effectiveness in constructing the building as it
was designed by the architect.
During the construction phase, the architect provides general

must check the bonds and insurance materials furnished by

by the contractor, and prepare any supplemental drawings or
other interpretations required to clarify the construction
