State-by-State Charging Order Matrix

The full 50-state charging order strength matrix. Each row lists statutory cite, case law trigger, and whether single-member LLCs are explicitly protected. Use this for asset-protection planning across jurisdictions.

How this tool works

Step 1

Find your candidate state

Use the search/sort in the live tool, or scroll the snapshot below.

Step 2

Read the statutory basis

Each entry cites the state code section and summarizes the COP scope (exclusive remedy vs available remedy).

Step 3

Check SMLLC posture

Wyoming and Nevada explicitly extend COP to single-member LLCs. Other strong-COP states left this ambiguous. Florida (Olmstead, 2010) explicitly denied SMLLC protection.

Strength tiers reflect a combination of statute (whether COP is declared the exclusive creditor remedy) and case law (whether courts have permitted foreclosure of LLC interests). 'Strongest' = WY, NV. 'Strong' = explicit exclusive-remedy statute. 'Moderate' = standard ULLCA-derived COP. 'Weak' = case law allows foreclosure or alternative remedies. Not legal advice — confirm with counsel.

Tier definitions

Strongest: COP declared exclusive remedy by statute AND SMLLCs explicitly covered (Wyoming, Nevada). Strong: explicit exclusive-remedy statute (Delaware, New Mexico, Alaska, Arizona, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Texas). Moderate: standard COP remedy without explicit exclusivity language. Weak: case law allows foreclosure or alternative creditor remedies (Florida post-Olmstead, New York case law, California for high-value cases).

How to interpret

Strongest = best for asset-protection planning. Strong = good for most owners. Moderate = COP available but creditor may pursue alternative remedies. Weak = expect foreclosure or reverse-veil-piercing to be permitted. SMLLC interest holders should especially seek Strongest-tier states.

Holding LLC strategy

A common asset-protection structure: operate the business in your home state, but hold the LLC membership interest through a holding LLC formed in a Strongest-tier state (Wyoming or Nevada). If a creditor attacks your ownership interest, the strongest state's COP rules govern the membership-interest remedy.
