Benefits of an LLC

The chief benefits of an LLC are that it combine the liability protection of a corporation with the pass-through taxation of a sole proprietorship or partnership.

We form more LLCs than any other business structure. LLCs are a popular choice for small businesses.

Forming an LLC protects your personal assets such as your home, car, and savings from debts and obligations of the business. This is the most important feature of your LLC.


Save on Taxes

Pay taxes for the LLC at the same time and at the same rate as you pay your personal income taxes.
