Of the many business forms to choose from, the limited liability company (LLC) has proven to be one of the most popular forms of organization since its creation. The owners of an LLC are called “members.” The LLC limits the liability of these members to the dollar amount of their investment in the company. For example, if a person operating a sole proprietorship accidentally caused an injury, she could be held personally liable and lose everything she owns. On the other hand, a person who forms an LLC would be liable only up to the amount they put in the LLC. Decision-making structures in LLC’s take different forms; some choose to vest authority solely with the members, while others split some of the decision-making authority with management. In smaller LLC’s, one person often serves the dual roles of member and manager.
