Attorney in Virginia to LLC for Self Directed IRA

Ronald Thompson

Posted

I know there are Self Directed IRA Custodians that can help set up a LLC for checkbook control, but I would rather deal with a local attorney, if possible.

I live in Yorktown, VA.

 So the Peninsula or Norfolk/Virginia Beach is preferred.  Richmond is also an option.

Thanks,

Ron Thompson

@Ronald Thompson,

I met with attorneys from VA Beach to Williamsburg, including one in Yorktown and none impressed me in terms of what I wanted to accomplish. I ultimately went with a national firm. That's not to say you won't find one but I would focus more on the expertise than the location. A "Checkbook LLC" is not something that is really location specific and you definitely want to set it up and run it correctly because the consequences for not doing so could be severe.
