The Most Common Legal Entity – LLC

The most common legal entity is the limited liability corporation (LLC) or LTD (limited). Having an LLC company allows you to limit your personal liability or responsibility for company debts or lawsuits. The liability is limited to the amount you have invested or guaranteed to the company. An LLC is a separate entity from its owners or shareholders and a bank account can be opened in the LLC’s name; the company can own property; pay taxes in the name of the company not the name of the owners; assume liability; enter into contracts and be sued as an individual entity. The LLC allows for the legal protection of a corporation but with the tax benefits of a partnership, which is an ideal situation especially for new and small businesses.
