At International Counsel PLLC, we help entrepreneurs, investors, and businesses—both domestic and international—establish and grow their companies in Florida. With years of experience in corporate law, we provide strategic guidance throughout every stage of LLC formation, from choosing the optimal ownership and management structure to drafting customized Operating Agreements and ensuring compliance with Florida law. Our team combines deep legal expertise with practical business insight to create LLCs that are not only legally sound but also designed for long-term success.
Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) are among the most effective and flexible business structures available under Florida law. They combine the liability protection of a corporation with the simplicity and tax efficiency of a partnership. Whether establishing a new venture or expanding into the Florida market, forming an LLC provides an essential foundation for long-term success.
One of the greatest advantages of an LLC is its adaptability. Florida law allows LLCs to be owned by a single member or by multiple members, who may be individuals, corporations, or other entities. Ownership interests can be structured in any proportion the members choose, providing substantial flexibility in allocating profits, losses, and management authority.
Management can be either member-managed or manager-managed, depending on how the owners wish to operate. Voting rights may follow ownership percentages or be customized to reflect investment, contribution, or other agreed-upon factors. This flexibility enables clients to design an entity that reflects their specific governance and business objectives.
LLCs also offer significant versatility in taxation. By default, a single-member LLC is treated as a disregarded entity and a multi-member LLC as a partnership for federal tax purposes—allowing pass-through taxation that avoids the double taxation applied to corporations. However, an LLC may elect to be taxed as an S corporation or C corporation if that better aligns with its financial strategy. This elective structure allows business owners to optimize both operational and tax efficiency.
An Operating Agreement is the governing document of an LLC. It defines the rights and responsibilities of the members, outlines how the company will be managed, and establishes procedures for decision-making, voting, distributions, and ownership changes.
Even though Florida law does not require LLCs to have a written Operating Agreement, it is essential for protecting the company’s limited liability status and preventing future disputes among members. A well-drafted Operating Agreement ensures that the company operates according to the members’ intentions rather than default statutory provisions, providing clarity and stability as the business grows.
