This may vary by state, but in Washington my broker tells me that a one-person LLC can work, if it elects to be taxed as a corporation so it can issue that person a W-2. Which accountants hate because of the potential extra taxes, but as she says, "my job is to get you health insurance, not reduce your taxes".

That's for a C Corp, check out S Corps.

I disagree, I think it's there job to help you reduce your taxes, if they're able to do so legally. I'd look for accountants who think so too.
