Key Quotes

“When a new client comes in and says, “Hey, I want an LLC.” Great. Until we have all of your information and it's ready to file. Once you've got it, we'll be able to nail all of your other Corporate Transparency Act requirements so you don't have to think about it. And until those beneficial owners change or some of their information changes, there's nothing else to file.” – John R. Strohmeyer
