In every state in the US, the state legislature has adopted an entire set of laws governing the limited liability company in their state. These laws are generally incorporated into one Act and so they are quite easy to find.
In a great majority of states, the name of the Act is the [State] Limited Liability Company Act so for example, the Virginia Limited Liability Company Act or the Georgia Limited Liability Company Act. But, in a few states, the LLC laws have a different name. For example, in California the LLC act is called the Beverly Killea Limited Liability Company Act.
The best way to find these on the Internet is to look first search for your states statutes. Type “Illinois statutes” into Google. You should find a database with all the laws for your state. From there, look for a search button where you can search “limited liability company.” This should take you to the section with the LLC laws.
Most LLC laws are contained either next to or within a state’s corporation code so if you have trouble searching, look at the table of contents of index and find Corporations, Limited Liability Company or Business Entities.
