LLC vs sole prop

I am a veterinarian (so some risk of being sued). I have picked up shifts at various clinics for a year, but will soon go to full time gig work. I will be working at clinics that I already have been doing 1099 work for, and would have to redo all of my contracts if I formed an LLC. I also do not currently have separate business and personal accounts. Should I 

 

1. Form an LLC, open a business bank account, and redo all my contracts and direct deposits OR

 

2. Remain a sole proprietor. If so, is there any point opening a separate business bank account?

LLC vs sole prop

You should form a corporation and redo all of your contracts.  You need to sit down with an attorney and a tax professional to plan all of this out for yourself.  There are some serious tax savings to be had by incorporating and getting out of the sole proprietorship.
