It took me a couple of days to figure it out. Why? Well, because everyone wants to suck some dollars out of your pocket during the process. Thus, I deliver a simple blueprint on how to dissolve the company.
- Get the upper hand in the negotiation by researching all laws and regulations (it’s also a lesson for you that’s why I don’t write that down here)
- Get in contact with the employees in the state’s office
- File and pay the tax for the whole current year
- Get all information on how to do dissolve the company from the state by interviewing them via mail and phone such that you are prepared for the next step.
- Once you know everything go to a lawyer (you do not want to be responsible if something goes wrong). A mistake might easily cost you $200k.
- The lawyer most likely wants to scam some money out of you. Show that you know the game and you want a lawyer for not being liable. Demonstrate if the lawyer tries to scam you that you will hold the lawyer liable. Negotiate a fair price, e.g. $100 for filing the documents.
- Print everything related to the tax payment, lawyer and dissolution.
- Keep it for 10 years
Done.
