Hello all,
I'm about to go into business with a friend of mine who has a solid understanding of the operations side of a niche business. There are a few red flags but this would be a total nonstarter without him given my lack of first hand knowledge. I'm trying to think of a way that we can be compliant on the paperwork side without taking on too much risk should either of us become a pain in the a$$ in the future.
I'm thinking about filing two separate LLCs, one for him one for me. Just something to get us started. I know a multi-member LLC would be ideal, but again, red flags. Nothing crazy like theft or anything. Mostly administrative concerns.
So I guess my question is, could two separate LLCs work? I know we'll have to just trust each other regarding splitting assets should we eventually part ways, but I'm not too concerned with that. He's trustworthy, just not the most reliable guy when it comes to paperwork. I'd rather we handle all of that on our own.
Thanks in advance!
