my business is a soleproprietorship and a year ago we received a letter with the intent to take us to court, it really didn't have any real validity to it and after initial contact we never heard back from them until now. Over a year later they once again contacted us. Our bussiness is not big so I feel they will have to come after me personally and my family to get any money, so I was thinking what if I make my co. an LLC that means that they can't sue me just the company right? So will it be valid if I start the LLC now before we go to court but the event in question happen two years ago.
