Engagement workflow
A clear, predictable process whether you need a single LLC or a multi-layer privacy structure. Choose your tier, pay a flat fee, and we handle the rest.
You do not need to live in Wyoming, and your property does not need to be located there. Wyoming is the formation state only — you and your property stay exactly where they are. Wyoming LLCs are available to anyone in the United States, for properties in any state.

Payment & engagement
Fixed-fee payment via Stripe. No billable-hour surprises. You know the total cost before we begin any work.
Immediate

Identity verification
Standard KYC screening for all clients. We verify identity, check sanctions lists, and confirm the engagement meets our compliance requirements. This step ensures every structure we build is legitimate and defensible.
1-2 days

Formation initiated
Articles of Organization filed with Wyoming Secretary of State, EIN application submitted, operating agreement drafted, and registered agent appointed. Standard turnaround is 5-7 business days; rush formation available in 24-48 hours.

Your client dashboard goes live with entity management, document storage, compliance calendar, and (for Privacy and Full Service tiers) privacy monitoring.
Same day

Ongoing compliance
Annual report reminders, registered agent renewals, data broker monitoring, and periodic privacy re-sweeps. Your structure stays current without your active involvement.

Structural choice
The difference extends beyond privacy. The right structure provides liability isolation between properties, simplifies estate planning, and limits your personal exposure in public records.

Recommended structures
Single LLC
A single Wyoming LLC for straightforward liability protection. Disregarded for federal tax purposes (Schedule E). Best for investors who know what they need and want clean, affordable execution without attorney involvement.
Two-layer structure
Wyoming holding LLC at the top, separate property-state LLC per asset. This is the defensible standard: each entity has a clear business purpose, privacy is effective, and compliance is manageable. Recommended for most privacy-conscious investors.
Why not more layers?
We recommend two layers for most clients. Three layers are justifiable in narrow circumstances. Four or more layers invite IRS scrutiny, increase veil-piercing risk, and can signal obstruction rather than legitimate business planning. We will not upsell you into unnecessary complexity.
