If the creditor gets a judgment against him, the creditor could assume control of an S-corp, and literally do anything they want with their share of it. (the creditor is now your new partner... and quite possibly the controlling partner). An LLC has protections against that happening.

Plus an LLC has much less formal paperwork than a C-corp or even an S-corp.
LOL, thanks for the breakdown, I already know what they are and what they do. At the end of the day, everyone's situation is completely different. I do not have LLCs, I have C's. That's what my lawyer recommended for my situation. Had I listened to everyone on GFY, I would have LLCs. I'll take my lawyer's advice, he is the expert.
