Documentation for HML

Posted

My LLC is located in NJ and HML is asking the following documentation:

Operating Agreement

Articles of Organization

Certificate of Good Standing

Do I need "Articles of Organization" if I have a Single Member LLC?

Also, do I need to hire and lawyer or attorney to prepare above 3 documents?

Thanks in advance, for your help/responds.

In New Jersey, the Articles of Organization is known as the "Certificate of Organization". In Jersey, this was created when you filed your "Public Records Filing For New Business", so you should already have the Certificate of Organization. If you need to order a copy from the NJ Treasury, you can do so here:

A Certificate of Good Standing in NJ is called a "Standing Certificate". You can order that here:

You should be able to knock all this out yourself in a day or so. Hope that helps.
