Follow Us Top Limited Liability Companies California Limited Liability Companies Our attorneys have formed and represented many thousands of LLCs for business and real estate ventures. When we form an LLC for you, we do not just hand you a form package of documents and expect you to complete them appropriately. Pre-formation: Pre-formation: We will start by making sure an LLC is the best form of entity for you, taking into account the terms of the operating agreement and the effect on California franchise taxes. Jurisdiction: Jurisdiction: We will consider whether you may be better off filing in another state, such as Delaware, and registering that foreign LLC in California, or whether your California LLC should register in other states. Operating Agreement: Operating Agreement: The LLC operating agreement will be tailored to your specific needs, ranging from a simple single-member agreement to a complex multiple-member operating agreement with buy-sell provisions and varying levels of management authority. Whether you want a manager-managed limited liability company, or a member-managed limited liability company, we can assist you in choosing the most appropriate management structure and membership terms. Future Planning: Future Planning: From the beginning, we will plan with the end in mind, including dissolution, sales, and transfers. Lender Requirements: Lender Requirements: We will also work with you to satisfy any lender requirements for special-purpose entities and opinion letters. Ongoing Legal Needs: Ongoing Legal Needs: Throughout the operation of your business, we will be available to assist with business, employment, technology, real estate, tax planning, trademarks, litigation, and other matters to protect your business and maintain the liability shield. Exit: Exit: When the LLC has served its purpose, we will help you dissolve it, sell it, or convert it into a different type of entity, both in and out of California.
