Yes, under certain circumstances. An LLC is designed to protect your personal assets, but that protection is not absolute. You can still be personally liable if you personally guarantee a debt, commit fraud or wrongful acts, or fail to treat the business as separate from yourself (like mixing funds). Courts can “pierce the corporate veil” if the LLC isn’t properly maintained. The protection only works if you respect the structure.

This happens more than people think. Ownership and effort are not the same thing. If your operating agreement doesn’t require active participation, your partner may still be entitled to their ownership share, even if they’ve checked out. Your options may include negotiating a buyout, enforcing any duties outlined in your agreement, or, in extreme cases, asking the court to dissolve the business if it can’t function. This is why clearly defining roles and expectations upfront is critical!

I’m excited to share our latest feature in the Entertainment Edition of Empower Atlanta Magazine — where we break down “The Dark Side of the Creator Economy: When Success Attracts Lawsuits.”

In this article, we unpack what many creators, influencers, and entrepreneurs don’t see coming:
✔ Ownership battles over content, brands, and ideas
✔ Partnership disputes as platforms and profits grow
✔ The legal risks of going viral without protection in place
✔ How success can expose you to contracts, claims, and costly litigation

The reality is—while the creator economy is booming, it also comes with real legal exposure that can threaten everything you’ve built if you’re not properly protected.

If you’re building a brand, monetizing your platform, or collaborating with others… this is a must-read.

Happy Birthday to our amazing Senior Litigation Attorney Tracey Hackett!🎂🎂🎂

Your exhibits are your evidence—documents, photos, contracts, messages, etc.

Before court:

✅Label each exhibit (Exhibit 1, Exhibit 2, etc.)
✅Bring at least 3 copies: one for you, one for the judge, one for the other side

During the hearing/trial:
You do NOT just hand documents to the judge.

✅Tell the court you want to introduce the exhibit
✅Show it to the opposing party
✅Ask the judge to admit it into evidence
Example:

“Your Honor, I’d like to introduce Exhibit 1.”

The judge will then decide whether it can be admitted based on the rules of evidence.

Only after it’s admitted does the judge actually consider it.

4. Timing matters

Some courts require you to exchange exhibits in advance (check your court’s standing order)
If you wait until the hearing, you risk objections or exclusion

5. Be prepared for objections

The other side can object to your evidence or your questions. If you don’t know how to respond, your evidence may never come in.

You can represent yourself—but you’re stepping into a system built for lawyers. The biggest mistakes I see are:

❌Not understanding evidence rules
❌Improperly submitting exhibits
❌Missing deadlines

If you’re going pro se, at minimum, invest in a strategy session with an attorney to prepare. It can make the difference between winning and losing.
