Well-organized to convey the subject matter in a straightforward fashion.
Was very insightful - thank you.
Very useful information and made a number of points about the relationships among LLC members that I had not heard in other LLC v Corporation discussions.
This was done well enough but was very basic and should be labeled that way. Provided nothing new for seasoned practitioner.
I regularly deal with corporate formation and the drafting of corporate business documents. While much of this was old hat to me, it was still informative and reminded me of aspects I don't often address but should keep in mind in my practice.
high-level survey of basic LLC issues
Would like more information on when to recommend a corporation over an LLC
Presenter was clear, knowledgable and informative - thank you!
