Needed in this economic downturn

If your run your own business, even out of the house, you'd be nuts not to do it under an LLC. Without the protections of an LLC, you can get yourself into a world of legal trouble. Add to that, LLC can save you on taxes. The problem is, putting together an LLC is not easy and using lawyers is expensive. That's what I learned. Thank God for this book. It's easy to read, covers all the topics, and weighs out the pros and cons of the choice I had to make for my LLC. After a few hours of reading, I knew what I had to do and did it. Now my business is covered by an LLC and I saved a ton of money. Plus, I don't have to worry about something stupid happening to my business and as a result, my house being taken away.
a must read

We are in the process of becoming a LLC and I bought the book hoping for some answers in one syllable or less. This is a must read book for anyone thinking of forming a LLC. It answered all my questions and brought up some questions I need to ask my lawyer. I have had it only a couple of months and have read it twice and will probably refer to it again. It gives the lay person insite into the LLC and helps you answer questions about forming maintaining and ending a LLC.You need to read this before going any further into organizing a LLC. It also gives you alternatives to a LLC too. The version with the CD rom with it provides current forms that need to be filed with each state which is a plus.
The best book I've read on LLC's!

I recently formed an LLC and wished I had read this book first, it would have saved me a lot of wasted time and money. It really is light years ahead of the other similar books I purchased both in information provided, and in the easy to read way it's presentated. What I especially like about it is everything is put into the proper context and all the dots are connected in a way that really helps the reader make sense of how a LLC should fit into their total business plan... I can't recommend this book enough.
Great!

Very comprehensive! Much more in depth than the other book I got on LLCs - doesn't just tell you how to form one, but gives real world advice on what to do after it has been formed.
