California LLCs:

An California Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a legal entity in the state of California that bears similarities to both corporations and partnerships.  An California LLC is not a corporation; it is formed under specific state statutes that provide for the creation and regulation of this special type of business structure that has come to be commonly used and respected in business.  When you form an LLC in California, it can be used to combine the limited liability features of a corporation with the flexibility and tax benefits of a partnership within the state of California.

Some of the benefits of forming an LLC are as follows:

  • Limits your personal liability for business debt
  • Provides the ability to transfer ownership of the company at some point
  • Enables the business continue beyond your lifetime
  • Requires fewer Corporate formalities such as annual meetings and record keeping
