Whether you are starting a small LLC business or are in need of legal counsel for your existing one, Collins Brown Barkett, Chartered has the experience you need.

When you’re starting out, our lawyers can help you determine the most suitable structure for your LLC, either member-managed or manager-managed, depending on the size and nature of your endeavor. We can also help you with the operating contract, which formalizes conditions such as member voting rights, capital contributions, buy-out provisions, and decision making. Such a contract may stipulate a management model where certain members are responsible for specific area of business. Even as a single-member LLC, an operations contract is vital, as it protects personal assets and provides a clear separation between the LLC and personal finances, particularly in a litigation scenario. Yes, we cover court representation, too!

Our attorneys, who are well-versed in the specific local and state governing rules for LLCs, will also assist you with duty of loyalty, duty of care, fiduciary duties, as well as any and all taxation issues and requirements you have at any stage in your business.
