Frequently Asked Questions
What is a professional entity?
A professional entity is a state-law business form used by certain licensed professionals. Available forms, names, ownership rules, and approvals vary by state and profession.
Is a Professional Corporation or PLLC required?
That depends on the profession and state. Some jurisdictions permit or require a specific professional form, while others use different structures or designations.
Who may own a professional entity?
Many states restrict some or all owners, managers, directors, or officers to people licensed in the profession. The exact rule must be confirmed for the state and practice.
Can an out-of-state or international professional be an owner?
Possibly, but state authorization, credential recognition, ownership limits, and immigration or tax considerations may apply. Professional review is important before filing.
Does USABA provide legal, tax, or licensing advice?
