5.0 out of 5 stars The best book I've read on LLC's!, April 21, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great!, March 1, 2008
By Book Lover "Judy" (Studio City, CA) - See all my reviews
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars a must read, August 4, 2008
By DDTJ "DDTJ" (ILLINOIS) - See all my reviews
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.
