Annual Professional Limited Liability Organization Renewals

May 17, 2012 By

The West Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct allow attorneys who are licensed to practice law in the State to register as a Limited Liability Organization. In order to insure that the professional limited liability organization is in compliance with the laws of The State of West Virginia, the organization is required to file a renewal application with The State Bar each year. Any change in the corporate organization from the prior year must be reported. Current certificates of insurance, confirming that the organization is in compliance with the minimum limits of coverage required by the Secretary of State’s Office, must also be provided. Due to changes in how we process our PLLC Annual Renewals we are asking that every PLLC register with an email address. Please follow the steps below in order to complete your online renewal of your PLLC.

Step 1: Instruct the office manager or administrator of your PLLC go to: https://wvbar.org/members/pllcrenewal.aspx to enter in the email address that you would like to have on file with The State Bar for your PLLC registration.

Step 2: After filling out the online form you will be sent an email within 48 hours allowing you to register on www.wvdv.net . You will then be prompted to enter in your PLLC’s contact information, Proof of Insurance, PLLC Articles of Organization, and your preferred form of payment.

Deadline: Every PLLC needs to complete their Annual Renewal before July 1, 2012.

If you have questions concerning the requirements for a limited liability organization, contact Anita R. Casey at 304-558-7993 or caseya@wvbar.org. If you have questions concerning the process for online filing contact Mike Mellace at 304-558-8920 or mellacem@wvbar.org.

The West Virginia State Bar

This month's MoreThanALawyer is our Valentine's couple Bo Sweeney and Patty Jennings, Huntington attorneys who founded the annual Huntington Turkey Trot. Bo (Robert H Sweeney Jr.) is a member of Jenkins Fenstermaker, PLLC and Patty (Patricia A. Jennings) is an Appellate Judge on the Workers' Compensation Board of Review. Keep reading to learn how this month's couple raises awareness for the health and well-being of our students and our pets.

***************************************

"To whom much is given, much is expected. These are words we live by." In 2005, Bo and Patty visited family in St. Louis for Thanksgiving and participated in a Turkey Trot. The following year, they searched for a local race in the Huntington area but found none. One week before Thanksgiving they organized the first Huntington Turkey Trot with fifty participants and donated the proceeds to Little Victories Animal Rescue Shelter. Deciding the community needed an annual Turkey Trot, Bo and Patty vowed to get to work on this annual event for the benefit of the local animal shelter. Almost 10 years later, in 2015, the event boomed with over 1,000 entrants and raised $25,000.00 for Little Victories Animal Shelter. Later, they raised $30.000.00 for the shelter, and, even in the midst of the pandemic and with a virtual fundraiser, the Turkey Trot was able to raise $8,000.00 this past year. Bo and Patty, along with their son, Chip, and a slew of volunteers, make this wonderful event happen every year.

"The Turkey Trot taught us that when you happen onto something great, make the most of it. We had no idea how popular a Thanksgiving race would become, but we soon capitalized on the trend. Now thousands of participants in our community enjoy gathering on Thanksgiving morning for fellowship and health and to benefit animals in need." Bo and Patty are proud that the Turkey Trot is now a family tradition, not only within their own family, but with so many in their community. Bo and Patty's family replaces Thanksgiving preparation the evening prior with packet pick-up and handing out t-shirts and numbers. Thanksgiving morning is spent excitedly preparing for the event and preparing for what feels like a party and a reunion for those attending. Following each race, awards are given which normally consist of Butterball turkeys and pumpkin pies. Donated bags of pet food are then delivered to the shelter.

Bo and Patty also have a soft spot for the students in their community. Long before COVID and school closures, Patty and Bo recognized that many students depend on schools for the two meals each day when school is in session. Starting with a grassroots food drive effort with area law firms in stocking pantries at Huntington High School and its feeder schools, they later merged efforts with Jenkins Fenstermaker and the Cabell County Bar Association. The CCBA and its members had regularly donated $4,000 in non-perishable food and hygiene products to the Huntington High School food pantry before the students would leave for the holiday break. Patty and Bo hope to increase efforts to combat food insecurity by expanding the food drive to the Spring and Summer breaks.

We absolutely LOVE our Valentine's Day Couple! Thank you for for being MORE Than A Lawyer. Your community and your Bar are grateful! Bo and Patty reside in Huntington with their 5 dogs and 2 cats. They were nominated by @Sarah Walling who is an attorney with Jenkins Fenstermaker and is now co-director of the Turkey Trot.

******************************

What is our MoreThanALawyer campaign all about? It highlights all the ways West Virginia’s attorneys impact lives within and outside of their profession. West Virginia's lawyers are service members, volunteers, mentors, coaches, musicians and committed advocates. In all of these roles, they make a difference in their community. Each month we share a MoreThanALawyer story on West Virginia State Bar’s Facebook and Twitter pages.
