Why is a Registered
Agent Important?
What is a Registered Agent and Why Do You Need One?
 |
Virtually every state requires all corporations and
limited liability companies (LLC) to appoint a
Registered Agent. Most states require the Registered
Agent to be physically located in the state of
incorporation or qualification. If you fail to appoint a
Registered Agent, then the state will take steps to
prevent you from being able to do business in that
state. |
|
A Registered Agent is an entity that is responsible for
receiving important legal and tax documents for your
corporation or LLC, which may include: notice of
litigation (service of process), franchise tax forms and
annual report notices. |
|
Your Registered Agent address is a matter of public
record. Each state wants to make sure that its citizens
and businesses have a way to contact you in the event
they have a potential claim against you. Without a
Registered Agent to receive legal process on your
behalf, you could be defaulted for failing to answer the
claim in a timely fashion. |
|
A Registered Agent is like car insurance……. you may
never need it, but you are required to have it and
you're glad you do when a problem occurs.
|
Why should
you use our Registered Agents?

FREE Compliance WatchSM service with your
Registered Agent service. It's a customized, on-line
calendar and reminder service that notifies you when
corporate documents and actions are due. Compliance

|
|
Your Registered Agent provides your business with a
layer of anonymity. In the unfortunate event that your
business is sued, you won't be sued in front of your
customers.
|
|
As your Registered Agent, we will ensure that you
receive real-time information on litigation. Your Registered Agent will forward via Fed Ex, to whomever and to
wherever, a Notice of Service of Process the same day we
are served. This Notice will detail, among other things,
who is suing you, in what court, how and when it was
served, the nature of the case, and how much time you
have to answer.
|
|
Your Registered Agent will also receive on your behalf
official documents such as annual reports and franchise
tax notices and forward them to you in a timely manner.
In Delaware, you can even arrange to have us advance
payment of your franchise taxes to ensure that you do
not fall victim to late payment penalties.
|
|
You can rest assured that if you choose our Registered Agents, your critical
documents will be handled correctly and in a timely
matter - we are aligned with the experts with over 100 years of
experience! |

appropriately. We actually walk the filing into their office
on your behalf! Your Articles of Incorporation will be done

running within 7-10 business days, not months! We are here to
help and offer advise should you need us.
Doing it right makes all the difference!

We provide an annual
service to assist those who want the annual minutes filings
done for them. We will remind you each year when you need to
conduct your annual meeting of the Board of Directors and
complete the minutes documentation for you. We will then
e-mail the completed "Organizational Meeting" document to you,
all that you do is sign it, stamp it with your corporate seal
and insert it into your corporate ledger book.
