LLC signature on contract

[Shea Spinelli]

Good news! We have a contract about to go into force. I've never signed as the LLC, it's new to me. I forgot to ask my lawyer if I sign my personal name or the business name on the Commercial Contract - Improved Property. It may be a dumb question, but I remember hearing that you don't want your personal name anywhere. How should I sign? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

No no. NEVER sign in your personal name. You should have an operating agreement that sets forth who the manager or managing member(s) are in every LLC. If you don't, always sign like this:

123, LLC, a [State] limited liability company
