Set up my business legally and keep it in good standing

“should I form an LLC for my freelance work in Texas”

A comparison of staying a sole proprietor, forming an LLC or electing S-corp tax status in the person's state, on formation and annual fees, liability, taxes and paperwork, each figure cited to the state or IRS page it came from; a registration checklist (EIN, state filing, registered agent, local business licence, sales tax permit and any other registration that applies) with each ID stored once filed; the state forms filled from the person's details and exported for them to file; and a dated compliance calendar of annual reports, licence renewals and tax deposits with reminders. Tax and legal advice come from an accountant or attorney.
