How Do I Admit a New Member to a LLC in Louisiana?
In Louisiana a sole member LLC wishes to admit a new member--will a resolution to that effect suffice or do you need additional forms or contracts such as a member purchase agreement etc, to accomplish the intent?
Do you have to have an operating agreement when forming an LLC?
A friend and I filed the papers with the state to form a LLC , but there was no written operating agreement between the two of us and he refuses to proceed with it. I asked him over and over and he either ignores me or says that he will, but continues to evade the issue. Do I need to force the issue and if so, how? We have gotten our LLC back from the state and have been operating for nearly three months now and I am told that an operating agreement is necessary with an addendum to cover the procedures of how we work together. I have looked at your operating agreement but there are no examples of how to work out the day to day operations of the business. Does the operating agreement have to be registered with the state? Please advise.
Amendment of Form to Transfer Interest of a LLC Member
I just purchased an 'Agreement to Redeem Interest of a Single Member in an LLC' from US Legal Forms. In Section 1, we are not conveying to '___' any personal property (clause (ii)). Therefore, may I remove that portion to simply read, 'In complete redemption of his interest, the Company shall (i) make a cash payment to ___ of $xx.xx ?
How can I stop an employee from leaving our company and starting a competitive business?
We have a member/manger of our Arizona LLC leaving suddenly in order to provide the exact same services using one of our new contractors to do the work, because he can cut out the shared profits. We are an independent energy consultancy and marketing company for sustainable energy installers, perhaps a unique business model for our market that was hard to establish and educate the public originally. He will be in direct competition with us, and his using our business model will definately be taking from our potential client pool by using the same web marketing techniques, language, and a person that we were hiring to do work for us, but then suddenly disappeared to begin work for our withdrawing member without our knowing. We do not have a real operating agreement addressing terms for withdrawl, but of course assumed a fiduciary duty. Do we have any recourse or default restrictions under the law. We don't want to spend our life on this issue and wish him the best, but it is a competitive industry we are in with limited clientele he will be taking in order to make a few more bucks at our expense. I would prefer that he use new contractors, which there are many, and not resources or marketing language forged under the umbrella of our business. I am looking for general guidelines and specific knowledge of case law regarding the duties of a withdrawing a LLC member/minority owner without a detailed operating agreement in place.
