A Legal Entity stands as its own legal personality—completely separate from its founders. This means its rights and obligations are independent, shielding individuals from personal liability. With liability limited strictly to the entity’s assets, your personal wealth remains untouched—even if the business faces financial challenges.
However, certain legal exceptions apply. Understanding these boundaries ensures smart, risk-free business structuring. Secure your future—operate with the protection of a legal entity.
