Re: Limited Liability Corporation
One of the biggest advantages is that you get the liability protections of a corporation while maintaining the tax advantages of a partnership.

Re: Limited Liability Corporation
In a partnership, not only is the "partnership" responsible for the debts and liabilities of the business, but so is each individual partner. A limited liability partnership removes the personal responsibility. Our firm handles business formation as well as other types of business law matters.

This is more of an accounting question than a legal question.
Speak with your accoutnant first .. the rest then follows.
Good Luck.

Re: Limited Liability Corporation
A LLC is a partnership, not a corporation, but with a major distinction. Unlike a general partnership, in which not only the entity but the members themselves have personal liability for any partnership debts, the LLC offers its members liability protection from creditors, provided they have not given personal guarantees for the partnership obligations.
