How to start your LLC 
Why start an LLC?
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an LLC to start a business?
It’s not necessary to form an LLC in order to start a business. Also, an LLC is only one of several ways to structure a business. Other possibilities include: C corporation, S corporation, nonprofit, sole proprietorship, general partnership, limited partnership, and limited liability partnership.
LLC vs. Inc.—is an LLC a corporation?
Both LLCs and corporations protect owners’ personal assets from business liabilities or debts. But they have some key differences, including:
- How they’re owned. LLCs have one or more individual members, but corporations have shareholders.
- How they’re maintained. LLCs generally have less formal record-keeping and reporting requirements.
- How they’re taxed. LLC profits usually pass through to members before taxes, while profits for some corporations are taxed at the company level first.
LLC vs. S corp—what’s the difference?
An LLC is a type of business entity while an S corporation is a corporation with a special federal tax election. Either an LLC or a C corporation that meets certain requirements can apply to be treated as an S corporation for tax purposes. An S corp is similar to an LLC in that it can help its owners avoid double taxation.
How much does it cost to form an LLC?
It depends. Our LLC plans start at $0 plus filing fees, and you can add more services as your business needs them. LLC filing fees also vary by state. However, all of these costs are often tax-deductible.
What's the difference between do-it-yourself and attorney-assisted LLC packages?
Our do-it-yourself package (Basic) doesn’t include access to an attorney—but our attorney-assisted packages (Pro, Premium) includes unlimited 30-minute consultations with independent attorneys from our network, with each consultation focused on a new legal topic or issue related to the formation and launch of your LLC.
