HB 1082 New Hampshire House · 2024 Regular Session

relative to professional limited liability company (PLLC) assistant manager status.

This bill updates the rules for professional limited liability companies in New Hampshire by formally recognizing the role of an assistant manager. It requires that company managers and most officers be qualified professionals, while specifically allowing a single-member LLC to designate an assistant manager to step in and manage the business for up to one year if the primary manager dies, becomes incapacitated, or loses eligibility. The law permits this arrangement unless the company's operating agreement states otherwise, ensuring business continuity during leadership transitions. These changes take effect 60 days after the bill is passed.
