What is an LLC?
A Limited Liability Company (LLC) is the most popular business structure in the US and for good reason. It gives you personal liability protection, tax flexibility, and a professional business identity without the complexity of a corporation.
Whether you're a freelancer, real estate investor, e-commerce seller, or building a startup an LLC is almost always the right first move.
Your personal assets home, savings, car are protected from business debts and lawsuits. The LLC is a separate legal entity.
LLC profits flow directly to your personal tax return no double taxation like a corporation. You can also elect S-Corp treatment for additional savings.
With your LLC and EIN, you can open a business bank account, accept payments, and build business credit separating personal and business finances.
No board meetings, no complex governance. File Articles of Organization, get an EIN, and you're in business Brendat handles all of it.
Every package includes real filing support and access to our in-house CPA team, not a referral link.

LLC Basics
A Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a legal business structure that separates you the owner from your business. This separation is the foundation of “limited liability”: if your business is sued or owes debts, your personal assets (home, savings, car) are protected.
Unlike corporations, LLCs don't require annual meetings, board resolutions, or complex governance. You simply form the LLC with your state, get an EIN, and you're in business. Profits flow directly to your personal tax return no double taxation.
LLCs are the most popular business structure in the US for small business owners, freelancers, real estate investors, and online entrepreneurs because they offer the best balance of protection, simplicity, and tax flexibility.
A sole proprietorship gives you zero liability protection you and the business are legally the same. One lawsuit can wipe out your personal savings. An LLC creates a legal wall between you and your business. For any serious business, an LLC is the necessary first step.
Corporations require board meetings, bylaws, officers, and annual minutes significant overhead. LLCs have none of those requirements. Both offer liability protection, but LLCs are simpler to run and avoid double taxation. Most small businesses are better served by an LLC than a corporation.
A single-member LLC has one owner and is taxed like a sole proprietorship (pass-through). A multi-member LLC has two or more owners and is taxed like a partnership. Both get the same liability protection the key difference is how taxes and management are structured.
Tax Guide
LLCs offer more tax flexibility than any other business structure. Here's what you need to know.
By default, the IRS treats your LLC as a "disregarded entity" (single-member) or partnership (multi-member). LLC profits flow directly to your personal tax return you pay income tax on your share, the LLC itself pays nothing. This avoids the double taxation that C-corporations face.
Once your LLC earns $80,000–$100,000+/year, electing S-Corp tax status can significantly reduce self-employment taxes. You pay yourself a reasonable salary (subject to payroll tax) and take additional profits as distributions (not subject to SE tax). File IRS Form 2553 within 75 days of formation.
Most states also tax LLC income rates range from 0% (Wyoming, Nevada, Texas, Florida, Alaska) to 13.3% (California). Some states charge flat rates (Kentucky 4%, Arkansas 4.4%) while others use graduated brackets. Your state's rate applies on top of federal income tax.
Brendat is not a law firm and does not provide tax advice. For S-Corp elections, tax planning, and state-specific tax strategy, consult a qualified CPA or tax professional. Brendat handles your LLC formation and compliance your tax advisor handles the rest.
State Selection Guide
The right answer for most entrepreneurs is simpler than you think.
If you live and operate your business in one state, form your LLC there. It's simpler, cheaper, and avoids paying fees in two states. You'll need to register as a “foreign LLC” in any state where you do business anyway so there's rarely a benefit to forming elsewhere.
Wyoming has no income tax, strong asset protection laws, and doesn't require members to be listed publicly. $100 to form, $60/year to maintain. Best for online businesses, holding companies, and non-US residents who don't operate in a specific state.
Delaware's court system and corporate law are favored by investors and venture capital firms. $90 to form but $300/year franchise tax. Best for startups planning to raise institutional funding not for typical small businesses.
Important:Forming in a cheaper state doesn't save you money if you operate in a different state you'll pay that state's foreign LLC fees too. Always factor in the total cost for your actual situation.
