An LLC (limited Liability Company) is a business structure that provides legal protection to all of its owners. The number of the LLC members' liability is limited to their investments in the company. And if there is any loss to the company, like legal disputes, financial loss, or any business debts, then the personal assets of the company shareholders are protected. The LLC acts as a separate entity and does not take responsibility for its functions.
