Special Bonus: Sample Operating Agreements for Limited Liability Companies

Both the economy and premium editions of the do-it-yourself limited liability company formation kit also include sample single member (one owner) and multiple member (multiple owner) operating agreements. Analogous to the partnership agreement of a partnership and the corporate by-laws of a corporation, an llc's operating agreement describes how a limited liability company manages itself and how the company and the company's owners work together. These sample operating agreements come as rich-text-format files so you can open them with any word processing program, and they give you a starting point for writing your own operating agreement. Some LLC owners may even be able to use a fill-in-blanks approach!

The limited liability company operating agreements were written by business lawyer Carl Baranowski. A well-know legal author, Baranowski earned his masters in business administration and law degree from Stanford, two master's degrees from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and a bachelor's degree from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Baranowski current works as a St. Petersburg Florida business lawyer.
