agent; or, assuming that you have the appropriate form to establish

registered agent (resident agent). If you need help with any of
these tasks, call us at 1-800-669-9805.
The purpose
of the law requiring all Virginia entities to have a registered
agent and a registered office in Virginia is that there must be
an actual person residing in Virginia to receive important papers
so that the Virginia courts will have jurisdiction over the entity.
Some states stress this law by calling the person a statutory agent.
Some other states stress the residency requirement by calling the
person a resident agent. In either case
the agents are registered.
Whatever the name, you will need quality service

And, as long
as you have to comply with this law, you might as well have the
best agency relationship you can, considering both cost and quality
of service. Lawyers know business, business law and common issues
in litigation involving businesses and a lawyer or lawyer-managed
agent brings that expertise to the table. This doesn't mean free
legal service, but it does mean that you are starting at the right
spot if you need help.
With the registered
agents and registered office provided by
,
you meet the requirements of the law, but you also provide your
company, whether mature or developing, the resources of expertise
and experience. For example, in Virginia you may have maritime matters
of concern. If our agent in Virginia cannot help you on such a matter,
he can make a good referral for this and other matters as well.
Our Virginia
resident agent and registered office also provides:
A separate address for your corporation or limited liability company.
You may never be sued, but should any legal action befall your enterprise,
you will want (1) privacy and confidentiality that a designated
employee or lay citizen, however discreet, cannot provide and (2)
no late night knock at the door by a process server.
Promoters and sales people often use an agent's address for initial
contact. With our service, you can avoid exposing yourself, an employee
or friend to undesired solicitation. We forward only what you must
receive.
Timeliness in receiving important documents is crucial. We know
this and our procedures and high-speed scanning service are designed
to eliminate the financial costs of delay, hesitation, procrastination
or uncertainty on the part of persons unfamiliar with litigation
and reporting requirements.
If your limited liability company or corporation fails to maintain
a registered agent and a registered office in Virginia, or to comply
with other state laws, your good standing as a business entity can
be jeopardized. If you want us to, we can help you stay on the right
side of the law, which might otherwise be difficult even if you
give the matter your best attention and commitment. You get busy
like everyone else.
Considering
that you must have a registered agent in Virginia, the final point
bears repeating. Our service affords quality and dependability and
remains a bargain at $99 per year.
