What Is a Registered Agent?
A registered agent is a person or company appointed by a business to accept state and legal notices on their behalf. Every LLC and corporation in Florida is required to have one. Registered agent addresses are public information, so many businesses hire a registered agent service for privacy protection.
Your registered agent must:
- Maintain regular business hours to accept service of process in person.
- Have a physical address in Florida, which goes on the public record.
- Accept state and legal notices sent to your business and forward them to you.
Why Hire a Registered Agent?
Hiring a registered agent service is a more private, professional, and reliable option than appointing yourself or an acquaintance. And at $49 a year (that’s less than $5 per month), our value can’t be beat!
We keep all your notices and legal documents in one secure online account and send you notifications when action is required. That way you can focus on running your business.
If you list yourself as your business’s registered agent, you’ll likely have to use your home address, exposing you to junk mail, solicitors, spammers, and data scrapers. Hire us, and we can use our address instead of yours.
Online businesses without a physical address often struggle with state requirements. Instead of using a home address, hire us — you can use our address right by the state capitol for faster filings and same-day legal mail scans.
A Florida registered agent must be available at a physical office during business hours. If you can’t be, it can cause issues. We’re in the office 8–5 every week day to handle this for you.
