Setting up Louisiana LLCs
Business Law Attorney in Louisiana
A limited liability company (LLC) combines aspects of a traditional business partnership with a corporation, providing the company with both operational flexibility and a limit on the owners' liability.
In order to qualify as an LLC, the business can't feature more than two of a corporation's four core features:
- Limited liability to the extent of its assets
- Continuity of life
- Centralized management
- Free transferability of ownership interests

When setting up an LLC in Louisiana, you need to conduct a search to ensure that the name you are proposing hasn't already been taken. The name of your business must include "limited liability company," "LLC," or "LC." If the name is available, you then need to simultaneously file the "Articles of Organization" (states the purpose of the business and the duration of the LLC), the "Initial Report" (contains the contact information and lists everyone who signed the Articles of Organization), and the "Transmittal Information For All Business Filings." You can mail the documents along with the required fee, or you can submit them in person.
Filing an LLC can be the exciting start to your new business. However mistakes made during the filing can jeopardize your chances of a successful submission. I am available to provide the legal counsel you will need in multiple business matters, including helping you properly file your LLC.

How do I know if I have a personal injury claim?
A personal injury accident is the result of the negligent, reckless or careless action of another. An accident that occurs from the use of a dangerous or defective product is an example of a personal injury accident. Another example is a drunk driver who causes a car collision with injuries or fatalities. In the case of negligence, the victim may be eligible for monetary compensation that can include lost income, medical expenses, and pain and suffering. Beau Layfield and The Layfield Law Firm, LLC can represent a client in court and negotiate with insurance companies to pursue the maximum possible compensation.

Isn't divorce expensive?
A contested divorce can get expensive due to the necessity to attend trial, and document the case to present in court. Those who can work out their agreements prior to court and settle them with negotiations can not only save a lot of money, they avoid the serious stress of a court trial and exposing your personal business in court. In either case, I will help you bring the issue to a resolution with the least amount of stress, whether in a contested or uncontested divorce. I make every effort to make my services affordable so that you can have high quality legal counsel to support your case.

Do I have to go to court in order to obtain a divorce?
Filing divorce papers with a court is the only way you will obtain a legal separation from your spouse. This applies to any other form of legal separation, including a marriage annulment. Aside from the divorce decree itself, a court is able to assist in settling other matters related to divorce, which include child custody and the distribution of marital assets.

Do I need a lawyer in a personal injury claim?
Insurance company studies show that those who have legal representation in their case recover an average of 3.5 times more than those who try to get the issue resolved on their own. Insurance companies do not like to pay out large settlements, and frequently move fast with an offer, within days of a car accident or other serious injury accident. If you accept this early offer, it can be a terrible mistake; you may later require more medical treatment, or not recover in the expected amount of time, or could experience complications. I will carefully evaluate your injury case and ensure that we are pursuing every type of damage that could be claimed in your case. It is very important that you have legal counsel that will protect your right to fair compensation, and I will fight for fair treatment for you and your family. A personal injury lawyer is imperative if you suffered serious injuries. I am a Louisiana attorney that is interested in helping your resolve these issues.
