A Registered Agent acts on a Company's behalf in receiving legal documents such as service of process, annual reports, tax correspondence and other mailing from regulatory agencies.

A Registered Agent is a company that represents your growing business. A Registered Agent accepts service of process for your business. If for any reason your company has a suit or process filed against it, we accept the legal documents. Once we receive those documents we notify you immediately and forward all documents to you by Certified Mail.

An outside registered agent provides:

• An anonymity shield, protecting a business from exposing its clients, vendors or neighbors to any legal proceedings.
• An outside registered Agent puts a layer of privacy between the principals of a business and the public. For example, many businesses harvest “junk mail” lists from the databases of State offices. Having an actual registered agent greatly reduces the amount of “junk mail” businesses receive.
• As the Registered Agent name and address is one of public record, Generally, the registered agent legal address will be the one listed in all official public documents.
• An outside Registered Agent allows business entities to freely change their location at any time, without filing being required to file costly changes of address with the state they are registered in each time they move.
• Commercial registered agents generally have systems to keep track of filing, notification and publishing requirements of business entities which can save businesses hundreds or even thousands of dollars in late penalties were they to miss a required government filing. These are referred to as "Compliance Managers", "Tax Calendars" and/or "Compliance Calendars".
• Generally most commercial service providers have "Form Libraries" of forms and other documents required to file business entities in different jurisdictions - or to keep the business entity in compliance or "Good Standing".
• Some commercial registered agents provide real-time notice of any litigation, and forward all official documents directly to the companies they represent.
