Attorneys often find themselves so bogged down in the day-to-day work of running their business that they don't take the time to ensure they're organized in the most tax efficient way possible. This can cost them thousands of dollars in potential savings. There are four main structures that law firms can file under: LLC Single Member, S Corp, C Corp and Partnership.

Doing so will help them maximize their profits and better serve their clients.
