In Pennsylvania, if you are a single-member of a business, there is no legal requirement to file a Pennsylvania Single-Member LLC Operating Agreement in order to function as a business. However, it is strongly advised that this document is still drafted and even notarized by a public notary. The agreement not only details the standard operating procedures and the rules within the business, it helps to establish ownership and separates the business owner from the business.
In other words, if the document is not created then the private assets belonging to the owner will not be distinguished from those relating to the business. In the event that the owner needs to repay debt, their private funds (in whichever form they may be) risk being liquidized. This is a combination that no business owner wants to achieve, so completing this agreement is extremely important, starting with a Pennsylvania Single-Member LLC Operating Agreement Template. The template, which already contains all vital information, needs to be edited to include concrete information about the business in question.
