Registered agents (sometimes called statutory agents, resident agents or agents for service of process - we sometimes refer to them as "ragents", for short) are required by the laws of the various states, which mandate that a resident of that state be available to receive service of process and other important documents. The theory is that a corporation or limited liability company has no separate physical existence, and if there is no physical existence there has to be some person or entity subject to the state's jurisdiction upon whom process can be served.

Since at least some of the documents which may be served upon your "ragent" are extremely important (for example, service of process in a lawsuit), it is vital that the person you appoint is dependable and responsible. , founded by a veteran corporate lawyer and now a network of practicing lawyers and their firms in the various states, provides you with this dependable and responsible representation.
