If your LLC has two or more Members it will be treated as a Partnership by default unless you designate otherwise.

An LLC that is classified as Disregarded Entity will be taxed in a pass-through manner, similar to a sole proprietorship. If your LLC has a single Member then it will be treated as a Disregarded Entity by default unless you designate otherwise.

  • Understanding the Mandatory Notices and Contract

    Effective January 1, 2000, California implemented a statute which, for the first time in history, allowed a non-attorney to assist people with routine legal document preparation for many common legal services. Attorneys actively opposed the legislation and played an instrumental role in molding the new law to be a "restrictive" as possible, hoping that the law would fail and consumers would not be able to obtain low-cost legal services. With the activist efforts of CALDA, the California Association of Legal Document Assistants, the law did not fail and for over 40 years A People's Choice has continued to successfully provide professional, low-cost non-attorney legal document preparation services for hundreds of thousands of consumers.

    The notices and contract we use are mandated under the California law. All legal document assistants must provide these notices and use the mandatory contract by the California Department of Consumer Affairs. At first glance, these mandated notices and contract appear "restrictive." Through the creative use of legal software and legal materials written and approved by attorneys, A People's Choice has successfully provided high-quality, professional, full-scope legal document preparation services to consumers within the confines of the law.
