When is an Oklahoma limited liability company dissolved?

Have you ever wondered how an Oklahoma limited liability company dies?

Do you think your company might have already experienced one of those circumstances that would mean death for it?

To dissolve or have a dissolution is simply the legal term for the end of the limited liability company.

The dissolution of an Oklahoma limited liability company happens naturally under Oklahoma law when any of these things happens:

1. A natural death. The LLC reaches the age when its Articles of Organization says that it ends (e.g, the Articles provide for a 50-year life and the LLC reaches 50);

2. A prearranged death. An event happens that the LLC operating agreement says means that the company should dissolve;

3. Everyone agrees it should die. All LLC members agree in writing the company should be dissolved.

4. Death from the Court. An Oklahoma court enters an order that says the company is dissolved.

After an LLC is Dissovled, it is then “wound up”. Winding up an LLC is simply another legal term that means taking the actions necessary to close down the company.
