online or call us at 1-800-669-9805. We can arrange for you to
use our registered office in Connecticut when your current agent agreement
ends or we can start the service immediately. If you wish, we'll give
you the opportunity "to talk with a human being" about setting
up an LLC, a corporation or a partnership --- especially a foreign
corporation outside your home state.

has grown into a national network of practicing lawyers from Maine
to Hawaii and Alaska to Florida, including DC. We provide dependable
registered agent, statutory agent, resident agent service by all these
synonymous names ---- plus other corporate and legal services, e.g.
trademarks and service marks. If our agent, say in Maine or California,
is not specialized in maritime law, our agent can find someone for
you who is. The same goes for specialized needs in environmental law
or human resources. You name it.
Here
in a nutshell are a few facts you should know about a registered agent
in Connecticut:
"registered
agent," "statutory agent" and "resident agent"
are three names for the same thing: an agent authorized by a company
to receive documents and notices. (Since the three terms all refer
to a Resident
of the state acting as an AGENT,
we have coined the term "ragent" to include them
all). In the State of Connecticut "registered agent" is
associated with corporations and "statutory agent" with
LLCs. In both cases they are considered "agents for service of
process."
Your Connecticut
registered agent may be (1) a domestic company formed under Connecticut
corporate law (2) a foreign corporation authorized to transact business
in Connecticut or (3) an adult individual who resides in Connecticut.
Connecticut does permit a limited liability company or partnership,
whether formed in Connecticut or qualified to do business in Connecticut,
to act as a registered agent in Connecticut.
It is important
to note that a Connecticut registered agent must have a Connecticut
street address rather than a post office box and that the registered
agent must sign a consent to be a registered agent and file it
with the Connecticut Secretary of State.

in a new state yourself) and are interested in our registered agent
