Can LLC members be liable for LLC debt?

  • No, members (owners) are not liable for Nevada LLC debts.
  • LLC is separate from its owners.

  • If members contributed assets to LLC, creditors can seize those assets.
  • Nevada lures businesses by outdoing Delaware in shielding corporations and LLCs from liabilities.
