DOES YOUR SMALL BUSINESS PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL ASSETS? SOLE PROPRITORSHIPS AND DBAs (EVEN WHEN INSURED) MAY NOT ADEQUATELY PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL ASSETS

NEW TO BUSINESS OR JUST STARTING A SMALL BUSINESS?
If you are new to business, or just starting up, you need to know what type of Entity to develop for your company. Doing Business As (DBA) or a Sole Proprietorship is often costly since all your personal assets are at risk in the business in case of major loss, litigation, or bankruptcy.

ALREADY HAVE A SMALL BUSINESS?
If you are operating your small business, mom-and-pop shop, or an entrepreneurial enterprise, you need to make sure you have an Entity that will protect your personal assets, such as a Limited Liability Company (LLC).

ALREADY HAVE A LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY?
If you already have an LLC, you want to make sure it will protect all your personal assets, provide the protection against audits and litigation, and provide you with the proper operating parameters. Not all LLCs are created equal--make sure yours is what you want and need.

ALL LIMITED LIABIILTY COMPANIES ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL
Forming your own company can be a daunting task. The entire purpose of a Limited Liability Company (LLC) is to limit your liability as the ower of a small business and protect y our personal assets from any attack on your business enterprise. Many so-called "Off the shelf" companies you can buy ovr the internet, or even from a formation specialist, do not contain all the information you need to complete protect you and your assets from attack. Since every LLC must have Articles of Organization and an Operating Agreement, we have included what those two documents should contain. Any LLC not containing this complete information may not protect you from audits and litigation the way you want.
