There may be franchise tax savings. Some states have a
different calculation for the franchise fees. LLC may be
lower that a corporation.

A lawyer may be better able to answer this, but for
liability purposes, I think you're better protected.
Failing to keep your corporate minutes up to date and other
filings and paperwork issues could puncture the "corporate
