For tax purposes, LLCs and S-Corp are the same. I've heard S-Corps have
stronger corporate veils... YMMV. You can do all the leg work yourself, but
its probably worth paying someone to jockey around for you the forms and
teach you the intervals to submit all the silly paperwork to ADoR and the
IRS. See if you can find an accountant in your area to help. I'd expect the
costs to be $300-500. The paperwork, ads, etc will be $200-300 doing it
yourself.
Good luck!
