Multi-Member LLC

Ohio

Asked on Jun 22, 2024

Can you explain the process and requirements for forming a multi-member LLC?

I am currently in the process of starting a new business with two partners, and we have decided to form a multi-member LLC. We have a general understanding of what an LLC is and how it offers liability protection, but we are unsure about the specific steps and requirements involved in forming a multi-member LLC. We would like to know about the necessary documents, filing procedures, and any other legal considerations that we should be aware of in order to properly establish our LLC and protect our interests.

Paul S.

Answered Jul 12, 2024

You will need to file articles of organization with the Secretary of State of the state where you want to form the LLC. This is relatively easy. More importantly, because you will have 2 or more members, you should have an operating agreement. This is a contract between the members, detailing who the members are, what percentages of the LLC each member owns, how the LLC will be managed, how profits and losses will be allocated, and how distributions will be allocated. The operating agreement should also put restrictions on voluntary and involuntary (think divorce, death, bankruptcy) transfers of ownership, so that you don't suddenly end up with a new member that you don't want. The operating agreement is not filed with the state. You should have an experienced lawyer help you with the operating agreement, as it can be pretty complex.

Asked on May 20, 2023

LLC and subsidiary formation?

I am in the process of starting a business and am looking to form a Limited Liability Company (LLC). I plan to have a subsidiary company, and am looking for advice on the best way to structure the LLC and subsidiary. I am also interested in learning what other legal considerations I should be aware of when setting up the LLC.

Gagandeep K.

Answered May 24, 2023

If you are interested in forming a series LLC (SLLC) in which a group of LLCs are owned in a tiered-down structure such that the top tier LLC owns the lower-tiered LLCs, then you have to from the SLLC in another state. A SLLC cannot be formed in California. You must register with the foreign SLLC with the California Secretary of State (SOS) before they start doing business in California. In California, LLCs can have one or more members. A member can be an entity or an individual. So if you are forming the LLCs in CA, then one LLC can own another LLC. There are various considerations when forming a LLC in California such as filing the appropriate documentation with the CA Secretary of State (e.g., Articles of Organization, Statement of Information), and having an Operating Agreement to govern, among other things, the LLC's business; LLC's management; members' rights, financial obligations and managerial duties; allocation of profits, losses, and distributions; tax implications; admitting new members or transferring interest; dissolution and winding up of the LLC.

Has a contract with someone where if we disagreed we would go to mediation. They refused to go, they offered us a settlement as long as we signed another contract. I don't understand fully what it is saying.

You should never sign a contract or other legal documents if you do not understand them. Get help and advice from a qualified lawyer before entering into contractual and legal obligations.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
