• A limited liability company (LLC) is a corporate structure that protects its owners from personal harassment for paying off debts or obligations of the company.

  • LLC regulation varies from state to state.
  • Any legal or natural person can be a member of an LLC, with the exception of banks and insurance companies.
  • LLCs do not pay taxes on their profits directly.
  • Their profits and losses are passed on to members who report them on their individual tax returns.
