In many cases, you simply file a fill-in-the-blanks incorporation form or a one-page articles of incorporation document with the appropriate state agency (often the secretary of state).<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, because these simple incorporation forms or corporate formation documents collect basic information that many experienced entrepreneurs and veteran investors can figure out on their own, people regularly self-incorporate. And that&#8217;s fine. (This web site, obviously, sells downloadable do-it-yourself incorporation kits for just these sorts of people.)<\/p>\n<p>Even experienced entrepreneurs and investors, however, often have trouble coming up with appropriate corporate by-laws (also called corporation bylaws) on their own.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, for $19 you can purchase sample corporate bylaws.\u00a0The corporate bylaws document, which you download at the time of purchase from the last page of the ordering form, is a nine-page, rich-text-format file created in Microsoft Word. The short document shows you what corporate bylaws look like. And you can even use the sample corporate bylaws document as a template for constructing your own personalized corporation by-laws. Simply fill in the blanks and then make whatever other changes you want or your attorney recommends!<\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.e-junkie.com\/ecom\/gb.php?c=cart&amp;i=CorpBL&amp;cl=23704&amp;ejc=2\" method=\"post\"><button type=\"submit\">Purchase and Download<\/button><\/form>\n<p><a title=\"View Cart\" href=\"https:\/\/www.e-junkie.com\/ecom\/gb.php?c=cart&amp;cl=23704&amp;ejc=2\">View Cart<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>About the Attorney Who Drafted the Sample Corporate Bylaws<\/h2>\n<p>The sample corporate bylaws were written by\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.carlbaranowski.com\/\">St. Petersburg Florida business lawyer Carl Baranowski<\/a>. An attorney for more than twenty years, Carl Baranowski has worked both as an in-house corporate counsel and as a practicing attorney, serving both private and public real estate and high technology companies.

He also earned two master&#8217;s degrees and a bachelor&#8217;s degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A member of both the Florida Bar and the Texas Bar as well as a past member of several other state bar associations, he also co-authored the popular legal reference, <em>Representing High-Tech Companies<\/em> (Law Journal Press, 2006).<\/p>\n<h2>Money Back Guarantee!<\/h2>\n<p>By the way, my sample corporate bylaws come with a money back guarantee: If you don&#8217;t get what you want or need from a kit, <a href=\"http:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/795-s-corporation-tax-return-preparation\/\">email us<\/a> to receive a refund.
