Diamond R.
July 29, 2023 My name is Diamond Simpson Roberts, ESQ, MSPH and I am convinced that I can be a value added asset to most any company. As the first in my family to graduate a four-year university, I graduated from Wayne State University Law School in 2000 but could not afford a bar prep course upon completion. After over 20 years, I sat for the July 2022 UBE, successfully passed and am currently licensed in three states! This is an example of my self-motivation, internal drive and passion. I offer over 28 years of diverse experience in healthcare, strategy, sales/marketing, legal/policy and business savvy. I have many years building, leveraging, and sustaining long term relations to drive revenue as an entrepreneur and for corporations. My analytical strengths provide me with an innate ability to think through tough situations/topics while viewing both vantage points (which is excellent for law and life). I have been appointed to serve on numerous committees due to my heightened ability to identify client issues and priorities and provide solutions based upon relevant products, services and needs. I have led teams with and without authority; specifically, I have managed teams for an Adult Foster Care Facility called Etonne Cares, during my post-graduate fellowship with the largest Catholic Healthcare System in the U.S. and during my two-year executive order appointment with the Federal Government (Presidential Management Fellowship). Most importantly, I am a collaborative team player who knows how to improvise, overcome and adapt! I offer numerous years of being a pharmaceutical trainer and being an adjunct using the online platform. I welcome the opportunity to continue in the interview so that I may further highlight the skills I can (and will) contribute to my success in the role.

Limited Liability Company
Limited Liability Company Agreement
Minnesota
Transfer Ownership to another person
Hi, I am EU national from Lithuania and we opened a company with a partner in US. Our initial agreement with that person, was, that he handles US operations and keeps part of the company. However, legally it is registered as LLC in Minnesota under his name. At this stage, turnovers are growing and we would like to transfer ownership (I think selling the company) to me and keep him as a Director in that company. This LLC is operating from 2019. We would like to know, is it possible to do it without physically traveling to US? What tax implications will be? Also will it be possible to buy this company at low cost? Company has a lot of inventory, but at the same time high debt with suppliers. At the moment, equity is about 2k and vendor debts - inventory/customer debts/cash approximately 280k. Thank you for your help!
Jaren J.
The transfer of LLC member interests are done via written agreements signed by all parties. They are internal to the company and not recorded anywhere. You don't need to be in the US to accomplish the transfer. Depending on how the transfer is done, there shouldn't be any tax implications.

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.
