Description
NYS Limited Liability Company Articles of Organization Filing Service
Overview
A limited liability company (“LLC”) is an unincorporated business organization of one or more persons who generally have limited liability for the contractual obligations and other liabilities of the business. The Limited Liability Company Law governs the formation and operation of an LLC. An LLC may organize for any lawful business purpose or purposes. The LLC is a hybrid business entity form that combines corporation-style limited liability with partnership-style flexibility. The flexible management structure allows owners to shape the LLC to meet the needs of the business. The owners of an LLC are “members” rather than shareholders or partners. A member may be an individual, a corporation, a partnership, another limited liability company or any other legal entity.

Additional Info
- Limited liability companies, formed in New York, must within 120 days after the effectiveness of the initial articles of organization, publish a notice in two newspapers of the county in which the office of the limited liability company is located once a week for six consecutive weeks. The county clerk, of the county in which the office of the limited liability company is located, designates the newspapers for publication. One newspaper must be printed daily and the other printed weekly. Proof of publication (Certificate of Publication with the Affidavits of Publication of the newspapers) must be submitted to the NYS Department of State for filing. The Department of State filing fee is $50. Failure to comply with the publication requirement will result in the suspension of the LLC’s authority to carry on, conduct or transact business in New York.
