Forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC) Lawyers
How Do I Form a Limited Liability Company (LLC)?
A limited liability company may be formed by filing papers with the appropriate state agency, which will then issue a certificate bearing your company's right to operate and function as a limited liability company. If necessary, providing proof of filing will be sufficient until you receive your certificate from the state agency.
Why Do I Have To File Papers To Become a Limited Liability Company?
There are four reasons why filing is necessary. They are:
- to give notice of the type of firm you are running
- to provide a precise name for creditors
- to allow you to understand exactly what rights and liabilities you are accepting
- to provide a paper trail of your activities and those of your business

- name of the firm with the abbreviation LLC attached

- name and address of any agent accepting service of process, or papers indicating that a lawsuit has been filed
- name of all managers of the firm
- name of all initial members of the firm
