If incorporation is the objective, then you need lawyer and accountant.

In general, the choice of "sole proprietorship" or "incorporation" is
largely determined by clients.  If they only do business with
"corporations", then you know what to do.  Aside from accounting and tax
issues, the most important advantage of incorporation is limited
liability.  Though, if you're the only shareholder, the only
executive, and the only employee, then I don't think you can escape
resposibility as easily.  One thing for sure, you can't escape lawyers
and accountants.
