Ask HN: What I need to know when registering a Delaware Corp?
I am planning on registering a Delaware Corporation soon and have some question.
If I plan on having angel investors and venture capitalists in vest in to my company what is better? C corp or S corp?
When I register a corporation does it register also a trademark for the name of the corporation? so it _can't_ be used by any entity but this corporation?
Is there anything else I need to know?
That's all the questions I have for now.
Thank you for your time hackers.

If you're going to raise money you're going to want a lawyer. Try to find one that will defer expenses until you've received your first check. Above all make sure the lawyer has been involved with startup financing before. This is critical.
