Assignment of Member Interest in a Limited Liability Company (LLC) is the process of transferring or assigning an ownership interest in an LLC to another person or entity. It is a way for the original member to transfer their rights and obligations of ownership to a new member or party. An Assignment of Member Interest in an LLC is typically used when members of an LLC are looking to sell or transfer their ownership interest to a third party or when a new member is joining the LLC. There are two main types of Assignment of Member Interest in an LLC: voluntary and involuntary. Voluntary Assignment of Member Interest in an LLC occurs when a member agrees to transfer their interest to another party or entity. This type of transfer requires the consent of all other members of the LLC and is typically done for financial gain. Involuntary Assignment of Member Interest in an LLC occurs when one member is forced to transfer their interest to another party. This type of transfer is often done due to legal or financial reasons. For example, a court may order an involuntary transfer of a member’s interest to settle a dispute between members or to satisfy a debt. Both voluntary and involuntary Assignment of Member Interest in an LLC require the completion of paperwork and a formal document that outlines the terms of the transfer. This document is called an Assignment of Member Interest Agreement and must be executed by all parties involved in the transfer.
