In some states if you are a doctor, lawyer or other licensed professional you cannot sell licensed services through LLC or corporation. Instead it needs to be done through PLLC or PC

Choosing between a PLLC and an LLC is not just about the name — it’s about how your business is legally structured and what type of work you do. 📌

A PLLC (Professional Limited Liability Company) is usually created for licensed professionals such as:
• doctors
• lawyers
• accountants
• therapists
• architects
• certain consultants

In many states, a professional license is required to form a PLLC.

An LLC (Limited Liability Company) is more flexible and can be used for many different types of businesses including:
• e-commerce
• marketing agencies
• consulting companies
• real estate
• online businesses
• startups
• service businesses

Some key differences include:
✔️ ownership requirements
✔️ licensing rules
✔️ liability protection
✔️ permitted business activities
✔️ compliance requirements
✔️ management flexibility

The right structure depends on your industry, goals, state requirements, and future plans.

At Ligress INC, we help businesses better understand business structures, branding, professional setup, and positioning so they can build a stronger business foundation.
