Re: LLC Liability Protection on previous works

infringment suit are protected by a copywrite ant a llc --- this is just a legal form of ownership and it would only own the work from the date transfering into it. all previous tax treatments would be based upon the former ownership and who owned the copywrite at that time -- corps, llc, soleproprietorships, partnership, etc are forms of ownership and are established for tax treatments and rights, duites and liabilities regarding ownerships == hope this thlp you understand better --- each has it +s and -s

Re: LLC Liability Protection on previous works

Forming a corporation or an LLC will never protect from actions for which you are personally responsible. It will not shield you from liability for actions occuring prior to the formation either.

If one of your emmployees causes a car accident, the LLC and the employee might be jointly repsonsible and you would not. If YOU caused the accident, the LLC would not protect you becuase you were independently liable.

Re: LLC Liability Protection on previous works

NO. The author is the responsible entity. A corporation would only protect your assets against liablility for the acts of others/employees after the time of formation. Tax treatment is the issue you should base your decision upon.
