Re: Changing an S Corp to an LLC

You need to discuss this matter with a business law attorney as your question is too general. First, why is it that you want to go from an S Corp to an LLC? Generally, a small company that qualifies under both LLC and S Corp rules will benefit by maintaining the S Corp status for tax purposes even if they are established as an LLC.

As a business owner, do yourself a favor and retain a business law attorney and tax advisor. They may pay for themselves in the long run.

You can e-mail me if you would like to further discuss this matter.
