Why Every Business Without a Physical Address Needs a Registered Agent
If even ONE of the reasons below is your situation, having a professional firm like The Business Owner’s Emporium act as your Registered Agent (RA) is the best choice for your business.
You Don’t Maintain Normal Business Hours
Your Registered Agent must be available during normal business hours to accept legal documents where a signer or live person is required for receipt. Legal documents are delivered to your RA (and not your business address). If we are not your RA, we cannot sign for your legal documents requiring signatures or delivered by the law.
You Want Private Receipt of Lawsuits & Other Legal Docs
When a company is served with a Service of Process, it is often delivered by law enforcement. Most business owners do not want police officers showing up in front of customers, employees, or neighbors (if a home-based businesses). Using a professional registered agent ensures you receive any Service of Process both promptly and privately.
You Have a Home-Based Business
The address of a company’s RA is separate from your business address and is a matter of public record on the Secretary of State’s website. That means anyone, including creditors and marketers, can access your home address if you at any time had it registered with the SOS.
You Want to Spend Your Time
Building Your Business
Compliance requirements can be time & labor-intensive, often requiring the completion of lengthy and confusing forms using information from various sources. Most entrepreneurs prefer an outside source deal with the minutiae of compliance so they can focus on building and running their business.
You Travel or Are Out of the Office Frequently
If your business requires you to be out of your office frequently, for instance if you’re a real estate agent or an electrician who is making service calls all day, using a registered agent service provider ensures that important documents will still reach you and your business.
Your Incorporation State vs. Your Business Location
