Setting up a LLC in Florida. Lawyer or online website??
A real estate lawyer asked $600 to setup a LLC and file at the secretary of state not including $137 fee from the state, and then he would help me to get a tax id for my new entity.
With a little research online I find websites like legal zoom that can do that less than half the cost.
Its a very simple LLC that me and my partner will have, nothing special, 50-50 ownership and pretty much very straightforward deal.
Whats your opinion for choosing the "cheap" way?

The establishment of the LLC and the TIN is easy. The Operating Agreement is especially crucial with partnerships. I wouldn't necessarily throw $600 at a random lawyer that also helps with the TIN (whoopy!) but I would spend that amount for a quality Op Agreement that address the Ds @Pavlos Kasselouris.
