A Oklahoma LLC or Oklahoma Limited Liability Company combines the advantages of a corporation and a partnership.

All personal assets of the members are protected from creditors for debt and from judgments against a Oklahoma LLC. Provided a member did not use their personal assets to secure loans or personally guarantee the debt for a Oklahoma LLC. Unlike a Sub-Chapter S Corporation whose shareholders are limited to 75, there is no limit to how many members a Oklahoma LLC can have. For the flexibility and taxation benefits, LLC’s have become very desirable to business owners.

A Oklahoma LLC is owned and organized by its members. Members to a Oklahoma LLC are the equivalent as partners are to a partnership or shareholders in a corporation.

Managers are agents of the company and have the authority to bind the company to third parties. The flexibility in management is one of the reasons LLC’s are so appealing.
