Trump is/was doing multimillion dollar real estate development with outside investor's money, and observing lots of corporate formalities. That's why his businesses could go bankrupt without wiping him out.
If I represent a creditor, I'm not going to care if your chickenshit small business is incorporated or not, particularly if it's just a professional services business like a consultant. I'll just sue you AND your corporation. Besides, most creditors that loan to small businesses demand personal guarantees from the owners.
Just having a corporation won't make you Donald Trump. But it might earn your tax preparer some fees.
