LLC and private money

Hi all. I am trying to setup an LLC for purchasing investment property. I also want to use if for utilizing private money, similar to what Alan Cowgill does. Has anyone used a particular attorney or service in Columbus, Ohio? I was thinking of using Legalzoom.com just to get the LLC officially formed and then taking it to an attorney for any needed changes as I start the purchase/investing process. Any other suggestions for setting things up? What about land trusts? I am new to this and would appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Legalzoom, like most other DIY kits and Internet providers, creates cookie-cutter agreements that don’t work. Some of them actually have language that makes it easier to pierce. Go directly to the attorney to draft the documents. That is what’s important. Filing paper to register the LLC is triva and the attorney will do it for you as part of the feel.
