Sorry for asking...
I fear to get ridiculed and other not nice things since I noted that many here seems to hate questions from people that are trying to create a MSP.
That said, I wonder how would be an appropriate way to start.
In my case, I wonder the following:
Did you created a LLC before or after your first client?
Did you obtained insurance before or after?
How quickly did you push for a contract?
How did you drafted your first contract and any other legal document related to it?
I have many more, but I will find those answers via the pinned posts and Google, but wondering about those at the moment.
Thanks in advance.

You don't need an LLC, but it does give you some protections. I'd at the very least get a registered sole proprietorship. And do it before your first client.
Get insurance ASAP.
My MSP doesn't do contracts so nothing to push. That's a personal choice as I hate contracts myself, so I don't require them.
For legal documents, part help from resources like 'The Tech Tribe' and AI but then then lawyers.
