Legal Question in Business Law in Michigan

LLC and Liability involving another LLC

I own an LLC and am currently working for another LLC as an independent sales agent. Do I have to anounce my LLC to all potential customers or can I assume that the LLC I am working for as an independent agent assumes liabiility? How should the business cards be worded while working for the other LLC? Should it be my company name _______ LLC representing ____ LLC?

Re: LLC and Liability involving another LLC

If you are acting as an LLC (Limited Liability Company) you should ALWAYS disclose that you are an LLC if you want the business to be treated as an LLC. Otherwise, you run the risk of having the liability shield stripped away that an LLC provides. Always pay bills with a company check, sign contracts as "member" or "officer" of the company, etc. For more info, please contact my office at (248)851-3171.
