Naming, Domains & Setting Up Your Company Without Lawyers

You can stand up a real, fileable company this weekend, with no lawyer and no four-figure formation bill.

Most founders treat naming, domains, and incorporation as a boring layer to outsource or postpone. That delay is where companies quietly bury themselves: a name that collides with an existing trademark, a domain you can never own, an entity type that taxes you wrong for years, or co-founder IP that was never actually assigned to the company.

This course walks the full setup in order. You run a trademark sanity check before you fall in love with a name, decide between an LLC, C-Corp, and S-Corp in plain language, settle the TLD question, and sign the vesting and IP agreements that protect you before launch. It ends with a 90-minute incorporation you do yourself, so you understand every document you signed.

You walk away with a named, trademark-checked, incorporated company with a domain secured and founder IP and vesting agreements in place, plus a repeatable setup checklist you can run again for the next venture.

Who it's for

First-time founders: want to form a company correctly without guessing or overpaying for routine setup.

Co-founder teams: need vesting and IP assignment settled cleanly before anyone writes the first line of code.

Side-project builders: want a name, a domain, and an entity locked down so the project can take money and grow.
