Start a new business and protect your personal assets by forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC). Unlike corporations, LLCs are easy to operate. You don’t have to hold annual shareholder meetings since there are no shareholders in a LLC. You also don’t have to record and keep minutes of meetings. LLCs have the same tax advantages of a corporation. LLCs can be taxed either as a corporation or have the pass-through tax effect of a partnership.
An LLC is owned by its member(s). Members are like shareholders in a corporation. Members can manage the day-to-day activities of the LLCs or elect a manager to run the LLCs. Members can appoint another member or a non-member to manage the LLCs. As of 1/1/2000 California recognized single-member LLCs. However to receive the tax advantages of a partnership, you must designate at least two members for the LLC.
