Secretary of State LLC entity formation

Do you all create your own LLC's or have an attorney handle it? I just left the Secretary State office and it's so much easier creating it at the office then paying an attorney to do what can be done in 15 minutes.

If all you do is spend $300 with the SoS and get a certificate of formation, you are using the default company agreement in the Tx Business Organization's Code.  For a solo or married couple, that might work.  Even if you use a cheapo website to get your company agreement.  

If you have anyone else but a spouse in your company, I call that job security.  Good luck.
