LLCbyState Editorial Team
Last updated:
LLCbyState is researched and written by an in-house editorial team focused on US business-entity law, filing procedures, and tax treatment. We track changes to state filing fees, annual-report requirements, BOI reporting status, and IRS guidance affecting LLCs and corporations.
How we work
- Primary sources first. Every fact about a state’s requirements is cited to that state’s Secretary of State page or to a state statute. Federal tax claims are cited to IRS.gov.
- Annual review. Every published page is re-checked at least once a year against current SoS fee schedules. The "last updated" date on each page reflects the most recent verification.
- No formation-service incentives. Our editors are not compensated based on which formation services are recommended. The site does not currently run any affiliate program; if it ever does, the program will be disclosed and links will be marked.
- Reviewer slot. Reviewer credentials are gated until we hire a state-licensed paralegal or attorney to review state-specific content. Until then, every state-content page carries a clear "legal information, not legal advice" disclaimer.
Roles
- Editor (Editorial Lead) — sets coverage priorities, reviews fee changes, and signs off on publication.
- Researchers — verify SoS pages, cross-check state statutes, and maintain the change log.
- Writers — produce state-specific guides under the editorial style guide.
- Reviewer (open) — credentialed paralegal or attorney; recruitment in progress.
