The Basics
What Is a Series LLC?
A Series LLC is a master LLC that can create internal "series," each able to hold its own assets, members, and liabilities. When available in your state, it aims to isolate risk so a problem in one series does not automatically reach assets in another.
Real estate investors and multi-asset owners use Series LLCs to avoid forming a brand-new LLC for every property or project. One umbrella entity can scale the portfolio while keeping books, banking, and governance organized per series.
Key benefits include:
Legal Isolation Between Series
Each series is intended to keep its assets and liabilities distinct from other series under the master LLC, where state law supports that isolation. A problem tied to one property or project is less likely to automatically reach the rest of the portfolio.
One Structure for Multiple Assets
You can house multiple assets under one organizational umbrella instead of registering a brand-new LLC for every acquisition. That is the practical appeal for investors building a portfolio over time.
Same Protection, Lower Cost
The cost and admin load of many separate LLCs adds up through formation fees, registered agents, and annual reports. A Series LLC aims to deliver similar separation at a fraction of that overhead when used correctly.
Each Series Has Own Rules
Each series can have its own members, economics, and internal rules while still sitting under the master entity. That lets partners join a specific asset without rewriting the entire company every time.

The Wall Between You and Your Business
How a Series LLC Actually Protects You
Real estate investors and multi venture entrepreneurs who hold every asset in one LLC expose every asset to every liability. A lawsuit against one property can reach the equity in every other property. A judgment against one business line can drain the resources of the entire entity.
A Series LLC changes that. A Series LLC creates legally isolated compartments within one master entity. Each series holds its own assets and carries its own liabilities. A claim against one series generally cannot reach the assets of another. Multiple holdings. One structure. Real isolation between them.
- Each series holds its own assets and liabilities
- Claims against one series generally stay in that series
- One master structure for multiple holdings
- Isolation holds when properly formed and maintained

FAQ
Common Questions About Forming a Series LLC
Still have questions? Talk to an attorney!
A Series LLC is a limited liability company authorized by statute to establish protected series, each holding its own assets, its own members or managers, and its own liability shield. A judgment against one series generally cannot reach another series' assets. Our attorneys at AmeriLawyer, a licensed law firm, prepare the master LLC and every protected series.
Each protected series is a statutory liability compartment. The shield holds when three conditions are met: the articles disclose series authority, the operating agreement establishes the series, and each series keeps records identifying its assets separately. Break the separation and a court can collapse the walls. Our attorneys build all three conditions in at formation.
A Series LLC concentrates the liability separation of many LLCs into one state filing, one registered agent, and in most states one annual report, which lowers cost and administration as your holdings grow. Separate LLCs remain the better answer in some fact patterns. Our attorneys analyze your assets and your lenders before recommending either path.
A growing number of states have enacted Series LLC statutes, many adopting the Uniform Protected Series Act, and Florida joined them effective July 1, 2026. Several states still lack a statute, which matters when your property sits in one of them. Our attorneys confirm both formation availability and recognition wherever your assets are located.
Yes. Florida's protected series legislation took effect July 1, 2026, so Florida investors can now form a Series LLC at home rather than importing a Delaware or Texas entity. AmeriLawyer is a licensed law firm headquartered in Miami, and our attorneys prepare Florida Series LLC formations and every series designation.
Real estate investors are the core users: one series per property means a slip and fall at one building cannot reach the others. We also form them for fleet owners, franchisees, and operators with distinct lines of business. Our attorneys assess whether the structure fits your portfolio and your lenders' requirements.
You file articles of organization stating series authority, adopt an operating agreement establishing how series are created and governed, and execute a designation for each series. All three documents must align. Our attorneys prepare the complete set, because a missing recital in any one of them can compromise the shield.
You execute a new series designation under the master operating agreement, and in some states file a certificate of designation with the state. No new company is formed, and in most jurisdictions no new formation fee applies. Our attorneys prepare each designation as you acquire properties, typically within days.
