Registered Agent Services and Business Records
We can serve as the designated representative for the clients, fulfilling various roles such as acting as the primary business location and official registered office address with the relevant state authorities. Additionally, this involves granting clients the option to utilize an address for the following purposes:
- registering with the Secretary of State at their discretion,
- substituting our address for the physical business location to them,
- designating it as their legal mailing address (distinct from their commercial mailing address),
- using it as the address for their Officers, Members, and Managers.
For the purposes of provision of the services, we can leverage the services of third-party providers, such as legal professionals and agents, to accomplish the tasks we have committed to.
In our role as your registered agent, we take care of receiving various legal documents on your behalf and transferring them to the dedicated contacts you provide to us. By authorizing us, you grant us the permission to:
- receive, sign and accept of Service of Process notifications. Service of Process documents are typically scanned and uploaded to Client within 2 business days of receipt.
- receive, sign, and acknowledging Secretary of State correspondence. Typically, Secretary of State mail is scanned and promptly uploaded to the Client within 2 business days of being received.
You hereby grant us the authority to accept a maximum of 15 service of process, significant communications, and legal documents of any nature (“Legal Documents”) annually on your behalf. We reserve the right, and you expressly agree, that there may be an applicable fee charged to your account for Legal Documents exceeding the current limit of 15 per year. It is imperative to acknowledge and consent that the adjustment of this fee is at our sole discretion and judgment.
Furthermore, you provide your informed consent to our actions, which include but are not limited to, the opening, scanning, uploading, and transmitting of Legal Documents to your designated contact information, all within the scope of providing our Services to you.
Unless explicitly specified otherwise in these Terms or as part of your specific services, our registered agent services are exclusively limited to the receipt of service of process and the receipt, as well as forwarding, of Legal Documents. Consequently, we shall not be held liable to you or any third party for any loss of mail or other items falling outside the purview of Legal Documents.
Documents
Each of the Clients using our Registered Adress service is entitled to receive and have us scan up to 5 regular mails items per service year, which will be transferred to the Client free of charge. Once this allocation has been exhausted, there will be an additional fee to access or download any additional regular mail documents for the remainder of the service year. Regular mail, in this context, refers to any mail that is not originating from the Secretary of State or does not constitute a Service of Process document. Please note, we do not upload and send any unsolicited or irrelevant mail to our clients.
Any requests to forward physical documents beyond your allotted limits might incur charges. You hereby consent to settling the fees we post to you for any Regular Mails/Documents received on behalf of your company that exceed the service limit you’ve purchased. This encompasses any fees associated with requests to forward physical documents.
Although we make every effort to promptly handle your Regular Mails/Documents, you acknowledge that we cannot be held responsible for any overlooked deadlines, time constraints, or other time-sensitive Regular Documents we might receive. This applies whether these Regular Documents fall within your purchased service limit or not.
Receiving Packages
While we’re delighted to fulfil our role as your registered agent and manage the reception of service of process and legal documents on your behalf, it’s important to note that we should not be handling packages on your behalf.
Any packages received at our office will either be refused upon delivery or returned to their place of origin if immediate refusal is not feasible. If neither refusal nor return is possible, you will be notified that we have received the package. It is important to note that we do not function as warehouse, and we do not assume any duty of care regarding the storage or shipping of packages. If you prefer the package to be delivered to the address provided by you, you will be held accountable for all shipping expenses related to the package’s transportation. Additionally, you will assume the responsibility for insuring the package. Our policy entails that we will retain packages for a period of 14 days from the date of receipt and notification. Beyond this period, we will proceed to appropriately dispose of them.
Сooperation with partners
There are many logistical considerations while providing registered agent services, so occasionally we use experts like registered agents, couriers, lawyers, and other third parties to carry out our registered agent responsibilities. This item is to ensure that you comprehend and concur that these service providers may help us give registered agent services to you.
Storage of documents
The original copies of papers that are received by our offices are not kept by us permanently. We anticipate that our clients and their beneficiaries will take immediate, careful action to prevent the delivery of any important papers to our offices. We anticipate that clients and their dependents will take careful action to request that the original document or mailing be sent to the client if such papers or other mailings are delivered to our offices. All such forwarding requests will be at the client’s expense unless otherwise specified in writing. After the documents and mailings have been digitally scanned, they are all destroyed after thirty (30) days.
Digital signatures and records
Our failure to enforce a provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of our right to do so in the future because we are a digital corporation and occasionally need your electronic or hard copy signature. The remaining terms of this agreement will still be fully enforceable if one of them is deemed to be unenforceable. You agree to us adding your electronic or physical signature to any documents we file on your behalf, as we may need to do so.
Ensuring Up-to-Date and Precise Information
In light of distinct state prerequisites and legal regulations, it is necessary that we possess accurate details related to the filings carried out on your behalf. Rest assured, we neither trade nor disclose your data, and any non-mandatory particulars on public documents remain confidential. It is, however, mutually understood that you bear sole responsibility for the precision, accuracy, soundness, legality, dependability, and appropriateness of your information.
Furthermore, you acknowledge that the accuracy of the filings executed on your behalf is contingent upon the information you furnish. Consequently, you commit to promptly informing us of any modifications to your information.
