You can expect our Utah registered agent to provide
quality service at a reasonable price: $99 per year. On the Internet
you will find that registered agent fees run the board from really
cheap to over $200 per year. We have been providing these services
for many, many years. We know what is essential in a pretty straightforward
service. Your agent is an important part of your liability shield,
so registered agency is important, but it does not require frills
--- especially if you, the company, keeps an eye on your annual reporting.
If you are paying more or receiving less, you
can now comply with Utah laws
requiring an agent and a registered office without overpaying or sacrificing
quality and dependability.

provides dependable registered, statutory and resident agent service
everywhere, plus other corporate and legal services. We provide trademarks
and can assist you if you need an extra-provincial corporation established

the handling of such gatekeepers.
In
summary here are some facts you should know about a registered agent
in Utah:
"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).
Your Utah "ragent"
may be (1) a domestic company formed under Utah corporate law (2)
a foreign corporation authorized to transact business in Utah or (3)
an adult individual who resides in Utah. We have established a domestic
corporation in Utah --- LawyerAgents, LLC. Adult individuals often
do not have the experience and sense of urgency when it comes to service
of process. Lawyers do.
It is important
to note that a Utah registered agent must have a Utah street address
rather than a post office box and that the registered agent must
sign a consent to be registered agent and file it with the Utah
Secretary of State.
APPOINTING
A NEW UTAH REGISTERED AGENT
We welcome newly
formed companies, as well as companies previously formed who presently
have an overpriced resident agent, or a registered agent whose quality
and dependability may be open to question.
If you are forming
a new company yourself (or qualifying your company to do business
in a new state yourself) and are interested in our registered agent
services, just check the first box when you order
online. (If you want legal assistance in the formation or qualification
process, you may want to contact 4inc.com,
which is also affiliated with the Inc.Link®
network of corporate professionals.)
If you are an existing
company which desires to change its registered agent in Utah, you
may do so at any time by completing a change of Utah registered agent
form and submitting it to the Utah Secretary of State.
When you order
online, we take care of filling out this form. We send it to you
for signature. After you return it (signed) to us we file it for you
and we will also pay the required change fee to the Utah Secretary
of State.
Alternatively you
may prefer to sign the form first and send it to us so that we may
complete it and file it with the Utah Secretary of State, along with
the filing fee. The change of Utah registered agent form for a corporation
can be found at http://corporations.utah.gov/pdf/corpricf.pdf;
and for an LLC at http://corporations.utah.gov/pdf/llcricf.pdf
Just sign it and send it to us and we will take care of the rest.
If your present
agent is prepaid for a period of time, you can instruct us not to
make the change until that period of time has expired.
