SHOULD YOU FILE YOUR OWN LLC?
WHY USE LLC EXPRESS?

All businesses have legal risks.  Whether you’re operating a restaurant, providing consulting services, doing remodeling, or engaging in any other business, you face the risk of a lawsuit just by being in business. If you operate your business as a sole proprietor, then your personal assets are at risk if someone sues you.  An LLC, if properly established, can provide you significant protection. 

SHOULD YOU FILE YOUR OWN LLC? 
You may be thinking about filing your own LLC. It may seem simple to download a form from the Web— no harder than getting a dog license.  But if you take this approach, you may find that your LLC doesn’t protect your personal assets when you need it most.  It’s not enough to just form the LLC.  Under a legal doctrine called Piercing the Veil , a Court can impose personal liability on the owner of an LLC if the LLC has not been properly set up and legally maintained.  To maximize your protection from personal liability, the LLC needs to be properly organized and documented even if there’s only one member in the LLC.   See An LLC is not a Dog License!
