What is the name of your state? West Virginia
Ok, here is my question. I want to start an LLC (I think), and I want to be sure that in the future I do not lose any portion of this LLC in divorce. I am currently a "single" man, but the possibility of marriage is a good one within the next 2 years.
What is my BEST option for safe-garding myself against a future spouse trying to take assets of the LLC 10 years down the road. If the LLC is made PRIOR to marriage, is it not considered to be hers?
If I name myself and my mother as the only 2 board members now and then get married, what interest does my new wife have in the LLC? If we were to ever split up, would she be entitled to half of my half? Half of the whole? Does it make a difference if I name my mother as the manager?
I read these forums often and I am just trying to avoid a mistake it seems many have made before me. I am hoping there is a way to do such a thing legally since I am going about it BEFORE I am even Engaged. Thanks in Advance.
