Registered Agent Services

What is a Registered Agent?

  • A registered agent is a trusted third-party that is registered in the same state that a business was established in. Their primary responsibility is to receive notices on behalf of the LLC or corporation. Registered agents process official government notifications, business renewals, court summons, and any communication from the Secretary of the State. Generally, the agent does not participate in the operation of the business.

 

What does a Registered Agent do?

  • The registered agent accepts documents on behalf of your business ensuring that any notifications regarding lawsuits or tax issues associated with your business are effectively processed. Additionally, as businesses expand and move to bigger office spaces and expand into new states, new paperwork does not constantly need to be filed to notify the state a change of address. The location of the registered agent doesn’t change, so a business may expand and move freely and without worry.

 

Why do I need a Registered Agent?

  • As business owners expand their organization, there may not always be a physical location located within the state your business is registered. State Law generally requires there is an individual or agency that can be a contact person for the business that is available at all times. Hiring a registered agent mitigates the stress of always being available to be contacted or accept legal and tax documents.

 

Can You Be Your Own Registered Agent?

  • Legally, it is possibility to act as your own Registered Agent, however most business owners and state regulators would advise that someone other than the business owner fulfills this responsibility. Many entrepreneurs start their own business because of the draw of an independent lifestyle. Coming and going from work and going on extended vacations are all possibilities for business owners as a trusted registered agent is hired to at all times be available to accept critical documents.

 

Is hiring a Registered Agent expensive?
