LLCs are one of the most popular investments I see self-directed IRA account holders participating in. An LLC is a legal company that limits liability for its members, while providing some tax advantages. Typically, LLCs are used as a vehicle for participants, or investors who have a specific set of investment objectives.

Some clients create their own LLC for the sole purpose of investing their IRA funds, while some pool their monies with others in an LLC to make investments. Further, there are others who are looking to invest in a private company that has been previously set up as an LLC.

After all, he paid me to help him out, and I assumed he would help me do just that.My client came to me complaining that he was sure his 4 year old son was being sexually abused. The little boy was wetting his pants, and trying to hump his little brother. He said that a big boy had had him "suck his winkie", and so his father and grandmother assumed something was happening in his life.The mother says that a six year old boy had had fellatio with him at the baby-sitter's house about a year ago. She also said that she "had explained" what happened last week to the father. When I called her as a witness so she could tell me, the judge advised her she had a right to remain silent. She took the fifth, and refused to testify. The judge granted my client temporary emergency custody of his child.While we were in the courthouse, the mother casually mentioned that she had an appointment with the welfare department to discuss what had happened. I told my client to get the child to the appointment. It was obvious that an investigation needed to take place.The...more
