LLC vs. LLP
updated: May 5, 2010
The advantages of a limited liability company (LLC) and a limited liability partnership (LLP) are similar, but it is important to note that these two types of business organizations are actually different. There are a number of factors that the owners of an organization should consider before they decide to form an LLC or an LLP.
- An LLC or an LLP can typically be formed by anyone. However, in some states, an LLP may be formed only by professionals such as accountants or lawyers.
- An LLC member is usually protected from any liability over the amount he invested. An LLP partner, however, may be protected from only certain types of liability in some states.
- An LLC can have only a single owner, but an LLP must have at least two owners.
- An LLC has the option of filing as a corporation, a partnership or a sole proprietorship. An LLP must file as a partnership and may be required to pay a franchise tax.
