If you're an NRA-certified firearms instructor, you were taught during your certification training that every instructor should manage the special risks of training students around guns. In fact, the NRA curriculum specifically recommends each instructor register an LLC and obtain liability insurance. Unfortunately, few firearms instructors organize those protections for themselves. Even if you work as an independent contractor for someone else's LLC, you should still have your own protection in place.
Lawsuits often happen because people can sue you, not because they should sue you. If you're present when something happens during firearms instructors, you could easily find yourself personally named in the lawsuit. In those cases you going to wish you had an LLC and other protections to protect yourself and your personal assets.

We can help you organize an LLC, prepare liability waivers for your students, and advise you about risk management in your firearms training business.
