Before we get started in the details of forming U.S. Companies, I have to first share an important disclaimer,
which is that Stripe Atlas itself is not a lawyer or a tax advisor, and therefore Stripe Atlas cannot
provide you direct legal or tax advice for your specific company.
If you have specific legal or tax questions, we recommend first speaking with a lawyer or
tax adviser, and if you need help getting in touch with one, we are more than happy to connect you to
legal and tax experts that specialize in U.S. start-ups. Now that we've gotten through the disclaimer,
let's move to the next class, which is Stripe Atlas' mission.
