I was hoping someone from US might help, but I'll bite. I think that your best bet is to hire a lawyer and give them power of attorney to do it for you.

Especially if you plan on incorporating in US, I would not try to do it without consulting an attorney. There are differences in which state you start the business and these things matter.

I am Canadian, so no first hand experience in the US, but consulting a lawyer is probably the best bet. On all accounts.

Good luck.
