No legal advice, but the right path to legal success. Van Holland Group connects you with independent lawyers and expert specialists, allowing you to benefit from a strong legal foundation in the US that helps you effectively advocate for and protect your interests.
Setting up a business in the US requires a thoughtful approach. You’ll face choices about legal entities (LLC, Inc, etc.), bylaws, shareholder agreements, board structures, and annual compliance requirements. Each entity type has its own tax and legal implications for both the company and the owner.
We explain the necessary steps to remain compliant and ensure you’re not caught off guard when opening a bank account or attracting investors. We also assist with drafting essential documents and connect you with local attorneys to tailor your bylaws and reporting. This ensures your business is solid and future-proof from day one.
Collaborating with US distributors, resellers, agents, or partners can accelerate your growth but also introduces risks. We advise on the best collaboration model:
Exclusive distribution, franchise, agency agreement, or your own branch.
We help set clear agreements on exclusivity, targets, brand protection, IP, and exit arrangements. We also advise on performance requirements, penalty clauses, and protecting your brand from misuse. This way, you avoid disputes and can confidently grow in the US.
Van Holland Group connects you with independent attorneys and specialists so you can quickly comply with U.S. regulations and thrive in your business.
We also advise on data security, customer communications, and handling reviews and user-generated content. This keeps your online business compliant and future-ready.
