What Is an LLC?
An Ohio Limited Liability Company or "LLC" is a type of business structure that blends various beneficial aspects of partnerships, sole proprietorships, and corporations into a comprehensive and flexible type of business framework that is used and preferred by many people who own and operate small businesses.
How Can Forming an Ohio Limited Liability Company Help Your Business?
-
Easy to Manage
The ideas that formed the LLC structure aimed to provide businesses the freedom to contract, which means that owners only need to agree on how the company will operate, and the courts can uphold this agreement. Operating an LLC will not require the owners to record resolutions, amendments, meeting minutes, or annual board meetings, as is required by law with corporations. Most states will strip the asset and liability protection regularly provided to corporations if they do not fulfill these requirements. Nevada, however, will not remove these corporate protections if these procedures are not performed and will only pierce the corporate veil in the case of fraud. Again, particular factors regarding your business will help determine which is the best structure for you.
-
Tax Advantages
While an LLC legally separates itself from its owners (as corporations do), it can choose to be regulated similarly to a partnership for tax purposes. In this scenario, the LLC will not pay any tax itself; instead, the income would be filtered through to the owners in the same way it is with partnerships. The tax regulations regarding partnerships are more flexible than corporations, which allows for more maneuverability in tax planning. Businesses can search for creative ways to maximize the tax breaks they may qualify for. Each business's situation will be different and will dictate whether an LLC or a corporation is more advantageous when it comes to taxes.
-
Ability to Raise Capital
When a business is structured as an LLC, it is easy and straightforward to add new owners (called members) to the company, and there are no limitations as to how many members can be added. The additional members/investors can include individuals, corporations, pension plans, and trusts, which are not required to reside within the same state. In addition, an LLC or corporation can be formed by its creators in a state they may not personally reside in themselves. For example, a company could be created as an LLC or corporation in the business-friendly state of Nevada without its founders ever having been there.
-
Liability and Asset Protection
Lawsuits are a common occurrence in our modern society, and this is why it is more important than ever to build a legal barrier between yourself and your creditors. LLCs are entirely separate entities from the business owners themselves and therefore separate and protect them. There is no personal liability regarding any LLC debts, even if that debt is related to a contract or tort. The operating agreement has the ability to, for the most part, include any rules and procedures that the agreeing parties would like, and, when put into place, it can exist indefinitely, free of any maintenance. This initial drafting of the operating agreement is of the foremost importance because it needs to follow any state and IRS regulations so the LLC will be taxed as a partnership instead of a corporation.
-
Co-Owner Liability
In all U.S. states, LLC owners (members) are not typically held personally liable for another co-owner's or employee's wrongdoings. Corporations also protect this type of personal liability, while partnerships and sole proprietorships do not.
Suppose an LLC is held responsible for negligence or wrongful actions of an employee or another owner. In that case, it can have financial assets or property taken from it due to an unfavorable judgment against it. The innocent LLC members will not be held personally liable; however, the owner or employee who perpetrated the act can be held personally responsible for their actions.
