Member's are rarely paid a salary from the LLC. For your upcoming case, you will need to bring the lawsuit in the name of the owner of the property -- the LLC -- so if you cannot satsfy the court that you are a full time employee of the LLC, then you will need to retain a lawyer to represent the LLC.

I am taking an ex-tenant to court in 2 months for the judgement of money. At the time of her lease I did not have the property in an LLC. This is smalls claims court.
