Setting up an LLC

[Anthony Bratina]

I am starting out and want to set up an LLC to make sure I am protected. I met someone at a meet up who helps set up LLCs so you remain anonymous but he is not a lawyer. He says he will set up the LLC for you and lists his company as the registered agent and as the person setting up the new LLC. He also suggested that I talk to an attorney in Denver about getting all of our other paperwork completed. I have a few questions:

1- Is this a legitimate way to set up a business? I don’t know enough about LLCs in Colorado and I don’t want this man owning my business because he set it up under his business. 

2- Are there other ways to set up an LLC so you remain anonymous so people can't find me and sue me? I have heard of people setting up a holding company in a state like Wyoming where they keep business information private.

I feel like this is really specific and I apologize if it is too much so. I do appreciate any help someone could give me.
