LLC and corporation owners should sign business documents as "[Entity Name], authorized representative" instead of their personal name. Signing personally can pierce the liability shield and expose you to personal liability for contract debts. This one detail protects the whole reason you formed the entity.

If you have an LLC or corporation or you plan on registering one, keep in mind that you should never sign business-related documents using your personal name. Instead, you should sign the documents using the LLC or corporation's name. So you would write the name of the corporation or LLC, comma, authorized representative, or comma, member of such-and-such LLC or corporation. Not signing the document in this manner means that you could expose yourself to being personally liable for the debts or obligations of that contract. Ultimately, one of the main points of having an LLC or corporation is to provide you with personal liability protections, so make sure that you're signing documents properly so that you can receive those protections.
