Just what is an LLC? Here's a definition from Lectric Law
Library's Lexicon:
A business structure that is a hybrid of a partnership and
a corporation. Its owners are shielded from personal liability
and all profits and losses pass directly to the owners without
taxation of the entity itself.
What should you now before joining in an LLC?
Forming a limited liability company is more complex than forming
a partnership, but is less complicated than forming and operating
a corporation. Forming a limited liability company is a formal
process.
In a limited liability company, a member's legal liability
is limited to his or her investment in the business. Generally,
a member's personal assets are not at risk, but a member's
personal assets may be at risk if any of the following occurs.
- A member personally guarantees a business debt.
- The form of business is found to be a sham (not properly
formed or maintained).
- A member becomes personally liable as a result of his
or her own acts or conduct.
Having said that, here are a few links to sites where you
can find help for your incorporation or where you can incorporate.
