- Limited Liability Protection — Shields your personal assets like your home and savings from business liabilities
- Tax Flexibility — Enjoy pass-through taxation by default—avoiding double taxation—or opt for S-Corp or C-Corp tax treatment as needed
- Simplified Management — No board meetings or strict corporate formalities required
- Credibility and Professionalism — Enhance your brand’s trust by operating as an “LLC”
