Why You Need an Operating Agreement

While California doesn't mandate an Operating Agreement, it's highly recommended. It clarifies ownership, member responsibilities, profit/loss distribution, and decision-making processes. Without it, your Coaching LLC will be governed by California's default LLC rules, which may not suit your specific needs. An operating agreement also provides crucial liability protection, especially important for coaches providing advice. Let AI and Lovie ensure your agreement is comprehensive and tailored to your coaching practice.
