California Limited Liability Company Forms and Practice Manual
Prominent California attorneys have drawn from their extensive experience and collaborated to bring you strategies and forms for virtually every situation you may encounter in this newly revised three-volume Manual featuring a bonus CD with more than 230 electronic forms.
This extensive, updated manual, with more than 2,100 pages of valuable content, will help you stay current and efficient by providing appropriate statutes and regulations - complemented by thorough discussion and analyses of any changing federal and California state laws. Included are electronic customizable forms, and explanations and planning strategies for the LLC business structure. There is also an entire chapter devoted to the Nevada LLC Act written by Rew R. Goodenow, Esq.
Significant matters addressed in this Supplement:
- Regarding the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, a discussion and a useful chart, with a particular focus on the 20% deduction for certain pass-through entities and choice of entity issues, have been added as new Paragraph 1.17.
- The review of California law relating to “finders” in Paragraph 1.7.2.4 has been updated to cover recent California law as well as a pending Bill in Congress that could have a significant effect on this difficult area of law.
- The Curci case allowing “reverse piercing” for California LLCs is reviewed in Paragraph 1.13.4.2 as well as further discussion in Paragraph 12.2 pointing out the apparently erroneous application of California law where it appears Delaware law should have been followed.
- A new form of Operating Agreement that provides for Classes of Membership Interests with differing economic and management rights is included as Appendix D9.
