US LLC Set-up for Non-residents
Budget: $50 – $0 USD
My wife and I are US non residents, and hold US stocks in my wife’s name with a US online broker. We understand we are subject to estate tax of 40% on assets >$60k, in the event of my wife’s death. We believe we should use an LLC in this case, and would like professional advice.
Key Queries:
- Should the LLC be a sole proprietor in my wife’s name only?
- Or should it be multi-member and include me?
- How should we hand probate?
- Assist with drafting the LLC operating agreement.
Ideal Skills:
- Extensive knowledge in US company law
- Experience with forming LLCs in the US
- Understanding of estate planning for non-residents
- Superior communication skills
The perfect candidate will have a background in law or business and a demonstrated history advising non-residents on LLC formation and estate planning. Previous experience with international clients is a major plus.
