Limited liability company

Explanation:

A limited liability company is a distinct and legal entity. This means that the owners are not personally liable for the company's debts or liabilities. By forming a limited liability company, Sally and Alicia will protect their personal assets in the event that the company is sued. Only the company's assets will be used to settle company debts and liabilities.
