Built for your trade
Every business has different risks.
Your LLC guide should too.
Pick your trade — each guide covers the liability that actually applies to you, what you need beyond the filing, and the questions people in your line of work ask us.
Photographers & Videographers →
One corrupted card, one injured guest, one canceled wedding.
Landlords & Rental Property Owners →
The tenant's lawyer names you personally. Every property you own is now in play.
Cleaning Businesses →
You work inside other people's homes and businesses. Everything that goes wrong there follows you home — unless it stops at an LLC.
Truckers & Owner-Operators →
Your authority, your truck, your name on the door — make sure the liability isn't personally yours too.
Salons, Barbers & Beauty Pros →
Chair renters, product reactions, and a landlord's lease — three reasons the beauty industry runs on LLCs.
Contractors & Handymen →
In the trades, the question isn't whether something eventually goes wrong on a job — it's whose assets are on the line when it does.
Etsy & Online Sellers →
Your shop can outgrow your kitchen table overnight. The IRS form arrives either way.
Turo & Car-Share Hosts →
You're handing strangers the keys to a two-ton liability. Structure isn't optional at scale.
Lawn Care & Landscaping →
A rock through a window is a bad afternoon. A rock through a windshield on a busy street is a lawsuit.

Serving the public food is the most regulated thing a small business can do. The LLC is the easy part — so do it first.

Your clients are companies. Invoice like one.
Pressure Washing & Exterior Cleaning →
High-pressure water, other people's property, and one etched window away from a claim.

Chemicals, children's backyards, and weekly access to other people's property.

Strangers sleeping in your asset, in the most-visited state in America.

Open water, paying passengers, and federal rules before you leave the dock.

Six-figure cars, driveway chemistry, and your name on the invoice.

Small jobs, big houses, and one ladder between you and a lawsuit.
