Wisconsin Limited Liability Company Pre-Organization Kit

Avoid the common pitfalls of starting up a limited liability company by using our Pre-Organization Kit.

By using the included worksheets and checklists, you will have before you all of the basic data you will need to complete your organization paperwork. But perhaps even more important, by using this kit you will also uncover any potential differences of opinion among the organizers.

Frank discussions regarding the questions of voting rights, distribution of profits, amounts of contributions, and other management decisions often will enable potential associates to resolve many of the difficult problems of company management in advance, thereby avoiding much larger and more costly problems in the future.

The use of a written worksheet will also provide all persons involved with a clear and permanent record of the issues discussed and the decisions made, which may be important as your company grows.

Included in this packet are the following:

· Instructions for completing Pre-Organization Worksheet
· Pre-Organization Worksheet
· Pre-Organization Checklist
· Document Filing Checklist
