Operating Agreement
Hey BiggerPockets!
I'm about to set up the operating agreement within an LLC and was wondering if any investors in Utah have done this on their own? Would you recommend I ask a lawyer do this for me? If so, what law firms specialize in real estate and would do a good job? How much should I expect to pay a lawyer for doing this? Thanks in advance!

A standard operating agreement is automatically drafted for you with basic provisions when you open a legal entity with online services such as LegalZoom. If the structure of the LLC is unique or if you need additional language included, you might want to hire an attorney and open it through him/her instead.
