  3. Member disagreement (yes those occur frequently), among other valid and considerable reasons.

by Sam Mollaei, Esq. — Start your business here

LLC or Sole Proprietor

Should you choose to be an LLC or sole proprietor? This question is important to answer, especially if you are working on your own, or are beginning a small business online or offline.
