Key Takeaways
- Six common compliance failures—commingling, no Operating Agreement, no meeting minutes, undercapitalization, wrong insurance naming, alter ego—combined to pierce the LLC veil.
- The insurance claim was initially denied because the policy named the individual, not the LLC that owned the property.
- Prevention cost (under $2,000 one-time + $500/year) versus failure cost ($120,000 in judgment and legal fees) = 1:60 ratio.
- Veil piercing requires a pattern of failures—maintaining even basic formalities would have prevented the outcome.
