Limited Liability Company (LLC)


A Limited Liability Company (LLC) protects your assets and provides limited liability like a corporation, but without the burden of corporate maintenance. (Compare: LLCs vs. Corporations.) That's why it's becoming the most popular way to start a business and for holding your assets. 

With an LLC, you can elect to be taxed as a corporation, and avoid "double taxation" by choosing to be a "pass-through" entity. Why Pay a Lawyer? can form your LLC in 3 simple steps.
