How do I remove a member from my LLC?
Asked about 530 times a month on Google, across more than thirty phrasings: remove a member, remove a partner, remove myself. It comes up when co-owners fall out, when one wants to leave, or when someone is no longer part of the business.
There are two questions inside it. One is how to get an owner out when they do not want to go. The other is how an owner gets out when they do want to, and what they stay responsible for afterwards.
Both are answered first by the operating agreement, which is why owners who never wrote one tend to have the hardest time.
