BROWN BAG LUNCH
Session will be held at the Dakota County Western Service Center. The address is 14955 Galaxie Avenue, Apple Valley, MN 55124.
Business entities can be created by postcard. But most of the time, you and your clients are going to want to put some significant advance thought into some of the formation issues, and have more robust documentation. A typical operating agreement for either a board-managed or a member-managed LLC might entail several choices and run to a dozen or score of pages, for example.
Bryan Zlimen will share his insights about the choices and the process, based on his extensive practice in this area. He will also share some recent contributions he has made to add to the MSBA's mndocs collection of documents for members to use forming businesses for their clients, explaining the reasons behind some of the drafting, the advantages of using an interview process instead of cut-and-paste copying, and where you might consider further customizing the formation documents generated by the templates. Using templates makes the process more efficient, while also guarding against potential drafting mistakes.
Presenters:
Bryan Zlimen is a founding member of Zlimen & McGuiness, PLLC.

While in law school, he earned the Minnesota Justice Foundation Volunteer Service Award; and he continues to be committed to client satisfaction. His practice includes significant work on entity formation and buy-sell agreements.
