If you're not sure who is serving as the LLC's registered business agent, the information is available through the Secretary of State's office in the state where your business is registered. The same office may also have a copy of your LLC operating agreement, although filing such agreements is generally not required.
Every LLC that is registered in the states of California, Delaware, Maine, Missouri, and New York is legally required to have an operating agreement.
When you start an LLC, you'll need to decide early on who will manage it: members or managers? In a member-managed LLC, members (owners) are responsible for the LLC's day-to-day operations. In a manager-managed LLC, members appoint or hire a manager or managers to run the business.
Once you (and the other LLC Members, if applicable) sign the Operating Agreement, then it becomes a legal document. Can I write my own Operating Agreement? Yes, but we recommend using an Operating Agreement template. An Operating Agreement is a legal document.
