Incorporation is the establishment of a legal identity for a company rather than as property owned by one or more persons. It affects the assets, liabilities, and tax status of the company, and how it is treated under the law. Each state has a specific procedure but all follow the same general rules.

The first step to incorporate in California is to select a name for your company. If available, the name can be reserved with the California Secretary of State for 60 days. Incorporating protects the name from being used by another California Corporation. However, the name cannot infringe on a trademark or service mark. Once you have incorporated in California, you will need to protect the name from use by non-corporate entities by registering it as a trademark or service mark which is a separate process.
