Are operating agreements state specific?

[Kris Marmol]

Just a general question when creating an operating agreement for a new LLC does it matter if you have an attorney in the state you want to do in business complete the agreement or would any local attorney work for that job?

I would say yes. There are large concepts behind operating agreements that's common in all 50 states. But there are variations in state law that could matter a lot depending on what you intend to do. So if you intend to open an LLC in a specific state, it probably makes sense to hire an attorney that is licensed to practice in that state.
