Thank you for posting. Say you decide not to get a registered agent when you first form your LLC, are you able to change your mind and add in the future? Same question in regards to business address. In general, are you able to edit your LLC? I appreciate the info, thanks again!
Thanks Jim for all your amazing content. One question, for a Real-Estate business if I want an anonymous llc protection in various states for each rental, with then a parent LLC in Wyoming seems like a good option. The fees are super low and are tax write off so its a wash and your totally protected, right? What problems did your client experience regarding his Wyonming business? Thank you again for your time.
Unless your registered agent offers virtual address, like Northwest, then they will definitely drop you for using their address on your articles of association.
If we should not use the registered agent address as the business address, is there a way to get some anonymity (privacy/shielding from scammers), as well as someone being present during normal business hours to receive packages? Thank you for your time and information.
Hello Jim, I am happy I found your channel, however, I hope I am not too late, you see I went ahead and used my state, Colorado, website and formed my LLC. I did not start a sole ownership I just went ahead and established an LLC because I thought that was the best first step in starting my online biz which would be for importing and exporting, mainly from Peru, I have my sister in Peru and she has her company there and due to the free treaty marker between these two countries we want to take advantage of this. Sir, if it is too late for me, I have not done nothing else yet.
I registered my LLC in Texas and Georgia, however, I am opening a store in Texas but found an operating store (in another state) with my exact LLC name (yikes). This means I now have to figure out a different store name which is disappointing. I figure it's not worth fighting for a store name already being used since an LLC does not have to match the name of your business, right? All this stuff is so new to me and overwhelming, any recommendations?
I just registered my LLC last night, and I don’t think I did enough research. I appointed myself as registered agent. Is there any way I can change that? Maybe get one of these online agents ?
Wonderful video Jim! @15:25ish in your video, you mention about how to reference the contract, what if it is supposed to be a multi-LLC? How is it it supposed to read? Are both names listed?
I live in Sydney, Australia and own a Pty Ltd Company in Australia since 2004, doing Consulting. I wish to work from Delaware, USA for family reasons. I would like to create a Single Member LLC in Delaware so that I can work from the there. The E3 Visa requires that my company has a presence in the USA for me to be working there. While I am there, I will develop my business in Delaware. Can you help me ? Provide some advice or comments please ?
Very helpful Jim. Do I have to register a dba since my LLC is registered in Texas. Also could I operate a website name under a different name from my LLC since the domain name is already taken . Thanks much
Can I appoint myself as a Responsible Managing Employee on my operating agreement or do I need to amend my articles of organization to make it official? Im going after a C-33 Painting and Decorating License here in Hawaii and they require a RME. Im a sole owner, single member LLC. Thanks to anyone who answers this. Much appreciated.
Hi Jim thank you for the video. I got my personal lawyer to set up an LLC for me since I wanted to open a small cafe/ home catering company. He did and I’m asking him what comes next and they are no help since this area is not their specialty. I’m a single member LLC I just got it 3 weeks ago I’m doing the operation agreement now. What license or permit do I need to apply for in NY
you can do a quick search of your city/county/state to see what licenses you may need. As a home catering company, you need to be very careful. I'm not sure you are even legally allowed to do that if you don't have access to a commercial kitchen. I would find another lawyer in NY.
For online business, im based in one state, but shipping facilities that I used are based in another. Is there anything I need to do? Register anything with each state? Form an LLC for each state where product ships from?
And coming in 2024--failure to file your initial or updated Corporate Transparency Act Beneficial Owner disclosures.
Thanks for mentioning this. How do you keep up with this stuff so I can stay up to date on that too?
Thank you. Thank you 🙏🏽
I’m so glad I ran into your channel .
I’ve been binge watching for two days trying to make sure I set up everything correctly
You got this!
Crazy how you started talking about São Miguel, that's where I'm from!
Thanks for all the advice man, hope you enjoyed your time on the island!
Yep! I'm sold - purchasing your LLC package!
Thanks!
1x(9/23/24)……excellent….You are easy to understand. I like you don’t talk to fast & your videos are short & bite-sized. Thank you
I appreciate that!

Good basic info. Crazy you recommend forming LLC in your own state. Remedies differ greatly for CA vs. WY vs DE
Most lawyers make that same recommendation I would imagine. Unless you are a startup and seeking funding from investors.
I want to set up my LLC soon for my videography/photography business. So, this was helpful! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
The cat is excused. I love it. Obrigadinho.
Wow. Great listen Jim! Well spoken and excellent information. Likely speaking to you soon haha!
Sounds good!
Unless your registered agent offers virtual address, like Northwest, then they will definitely drop you for using their address on your articles of association.
This was such a great video. I wish I saw this before I opened my LLC three years ago.
Thanks for all the great advice as always Jim.
You bet
If we should not use the registered agent address as the business address, is there a way to get some anonymity (privacy/shielding from scammers), as well as someone being present during normal business hours to receive packages? Thank you for your time and information.
Hi Jim thanks for the educational information. My question is, can you opt to be taxed as a s- corp, at time of filing LLC?

Do I need to register under my home address if its a home-based business?
I’m looking to start a business in Florida in the winter months and then moving it to Michigan where I reside.
Will I need separate LLCs?
What do you suggest about how to operate a business in portugal. More online business, if we live in U.S. the best structure etc.
Do you mean operate a US based business virtually from abroad, or operate a Portuguese based business?
Hey, I have a question. What if I have a registered LLC and want to do staffing since it is on general services? Am I required a license?
That is a state specific issue.

Has anyone bought his step by step course ?
Lots of people have! We now have a monthly membership that includes the course.
Hey Sir, Can i use a P.O. Box for my LLC?
Thank you.
How can we use your service
Hawthornlaw.net
I used my home address is there any way I can change it?
you would have to file an amendment with the state.
In my state, no. It can be "changed", but the original filing with the home address will always exist as part of the official record.
When and why did he move to Portugal 🤔
We moved in July 2022. Likely moving back to NC by end of 2023.
Wow
Approximately How much does it cost to set up an LLC with a lawyer?
Just paid $1k in CO - should have used another lawyer, but would have been the same cost.
