Ramsey T.
My clients are often small and medium size technology companies, from the "idea" stage to clients who may have raised a round or three of capital and need to clean up a messy cap table. I help with all legal matters related to growth that keep founders up at night - hiring people, allocating equity, dealing with shareholders and investors, client negotiations and early litigation counseling (before you need a litigator). I've seen a lot, and because I run my own business, I understand the concerns that keep you up at night. I’ve been through, both on my own and through other clients, the “teething” pains that will inevitably arise as you scale-up – and I’m here to help you. I have over 20 years international experience devising and implementing robust corporate legal strategies and governance for large multinationals. I now focus on start-ups and early/medium stage technology companies to enable a sound legal foundation for your successful business operations. Many of my clients are international with US based holding companies or presences. My 17 years abroad helps me "translate" between different regimes and even enabling Civil and Common Law lawyers to come together. Regularly, I handle early stage financings including Convertible Notes, Seed and Series A/B financings; commercial and technology contracts; international transactions; tax; mergers and acquisitions.

Is LLC formation state-specific?
I am looking to start a business and am considering forming a limited liability company (LLC). I have heard that the LLC formation process is state-specific, and I want to make sure that I am taking the right steps to form a LLC in the correct jurisdiction. I would like to know if the LLC formation process is state-specific, and if so, what steps I should take to form a LLC in the correct jurisdiction.
N'kia N.
LLC formation is state-specific, as there is no federal formation process. Each state can establish its own laws, including those related to state taxes, for an LLC operating there. However, an LLC must also comply with any applicable federal laws. If you have specific questions about state and federal implications of LLC formation, you might consider consulting with a knowledgeable business law attorney.

What's the purpose statement in LLC formation?
I am looking to start a small business and am exploring the option of setting up a Limited Liability Company (LLC). I have been researching LLC formation and understand the basic steps involved, but I am unsure of the purpose statement that needs to be included. I want to ensure that I am setting up my LLC correctly and I am hoping to get some clarity on the purpose statement to ensure that my LLC is properly formed.
Darryl S.
The purpose statement for an LLC formation only needs to be 1-2 sentences that broadly describe the general nature of the business. Here is an example LLC purpose statement: "The purpose of this Limited Liability Company is to engage in any and all lawful business activities related to providing consulting services in the technology industry, as the members see fit."

LLC and member meetings?
I am considering forming a limited liability company (LLC) with a few other partners. We are looking to have a clear understanding of the expectations for LLC and member meetings, including the frequency and formality of such meetings. We also want to make sure all members are held accountable for their actions and that our rights and responsibilities are clearly outlined.
Daniel D.
In Florida, LLCs are not required to have annual meetings of the members and/or managers. However, your operating agreement would lay out different circumstances when the members and/or managers must meet to make important company decisions. You can draft the operating agreement to give you and your partners greater flexibility as to when and why a meeting is required, for example, hiring a new officer, spending over a certain amount of money, admitting a new member or removing a member. If you do not have an operating agreement in place, then the default is the FRLLCA. However, holding meetings of the members and/or managers is a good way to increase your liability protection. Even if the formalities are not required by law, abiding by them can help bolster your corporate veil and it will also add value down the road to your business when you or your partners sell. To hold a meeting, you would need to notice all the members, hold the meeting, record the minutes of the meeting and then draft and execute any resolutions that were voted on at the meeting. If all members are going to vote unanimously, you could use a "Consent in lieu of meeting" to be drafted that records the vote and decision of the members, which all voting members should sign. It is important that your operating agreement is well drafted.

How to set up an LLC?
I am a budding entrepreneur looking to start my own business. I understand that forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a great way to protect my personal assets and manage my business operations. I have done some research on the process, but I am looking to get the best legal advice on how to set up my LLC properly.
Daniel D.
This is a great question to ask. The first step is to register your business with the Florida Department of State on Sunbiz; that will get you legally set up to get rolling. The second step to setting up your LLC properly is to adopt an operating agreement. This agreement tells how the business will run, how it will handle new members and the powers that existing members and/or managers will have amongst other important paragraphs to have. You can be creative as you want with an operating agreement. Before you adopt your operating agreement you should consider topics like: do i want it to be run by members or managers; do i plan on having partners in the future or now; am I going to look for investors at some point? These questions can help you draft an operating agreement that will suit your needs as a business owner and show others that you were strategic in thinking of the future. You can also use an operating agreement for business succession planning incase you are incapacitated or die.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts 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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
