Legal Question in Business Law in New York
I am looking to start a LLC to bottle my own hot sauce in New York state. How would I accomplish this?
I have access to all necessary materials for production and bottling including a commercial kitchen. I am seeking the information to legally start my company, proper permits and licensing (if any).

In addition to forming a corporate entity, that would limit your liability, you would need to make sure that the kitchen is licensed and, depending on the location of the kitchen, that it complies with the NYS dept of health and/or NYC dept of health regulations.
You should consider using an attorney who would be able to advise and help you navigate the bureaucracy. Otherwise, if you are in NYC you could try calling 311 and asking for assistance.
Feel free to call my office at your earliest convenience with help in this matter.
Forming an LLC can be a little tricky, as there are certain differences from filing as a corporation that can impact the company. You really may want to consider having an attorney assist you with the filing and preparation of the necessary documents. Would you be the sole member or principal of the LLC? Would you need a partnership agreement or Articles of Incorporation prepared for you?
My firm is very experienced with these filings and you are welcome to contact me for a free consultation.
