Without this specific formality, your LLC can closely resemble a sole proprietorship or partnership, jeopardizing your personal liability.
An LLC operating agreement should contain provisions to cover: Basic information about the LLC. ... A profit and loss allocation plan. ... The LLC's purpose. The management structure. ... Ownership percentages of each member. ... Voting rights and procedures. ... Meeting frequency. Procedures for bringing in new members.
