A Minnesota limited liability company operating agreement is often recommended when forming an LLC. Minnesota business owners are free to choose to institute either a verbal or a written agreement; however, a signed and notarized agreement exhibits the power needed to verify a signature member’s willingness to adhere to its rules and provisions. This agreement should be utilized by both multi-member LLCs in Minnesota and single-member LLCs with the suggestion that the Minnesota members make sure that a professional, such as an attorney or an accountant, is consulted before its execution.
Is it Required in Minnesota?
No. No Minnesota laws require an operating agreement’s execution for a limited liability company to be organized or to continue functioning.
