How To Avoid Mistakes With LLC Formation

Forming a limited liability company (LLC) can be hugely beneficial for those who need to defer personal liability from lawsuits and losses, as well as those who need greater agility in terms of structuring and design.

While the formation of an LLC appears simple, many of those who wish to start a business make serious mistakes in information. Many think that if they follow the articles of organization, their work is done. Actually, it is essential to draft an operating agreement that defines the operations at a macro level — even with a single member. This is the primary document that will govern:

  • Meetings
  • Checks
  • Party interaction
  • Voting
  • Members
    • Regular members
    • Nonvoting members
  • Managers
  • Removal of members/managers
  • Death of members

Failure to address all of these issues can expose members to significant liability and compromise the long-term operational well-being of a business. As such, it is critical to partner with an experienced attorney to tailor your information and documents to your needs.
