Frequently Asked Questions

Most commonly when your LLC appoints one or more managers to act in place of members for major decisions—especially if members aren’t involved in day-to-day operations.
Is a manager resolution legally required?
Not by statute in most states. However, third parties—such as banks or investors—often request documentation proving manager authority before completing financial transactions.
