• Sole proprietorship

• General partnership

• Limited partnership or a variation on the partnership format called a limited liability partnership (LLP)

• Corporation, which will be either a “C” corporation or an “S” corporation, and will be a professional corporation or a standard business corporation

• Limited liability company (LLC), which in a few jurisdictions might be a professional LLC
