You have to prepare a Bill of Sale and other transfer documents depending on the nature of the assets from the GP to the Corp. This would be the capital contribution of each partner as each partner would become a shareholder in proportionate to his or her partnership percentage. You would also... View More

This fishy "Contracts, Business Formation and Business Law " story sounds like it was taken right out of a business law course at Santa Fe Community College; otherwise why would you--a mere observer--be interested in knowing how "John" and "Chuck" should show "Rob" the door?

It depends upon what product or service the business sells. And, by the way, registering a LLC is not licensing; there is no such thing as a "LLC license".

Congratulations on having a good idea. You may be able to make and sell this as an aftermarket enhancement for installed systems.
