Registered Agent Service with Attorney-client Privilege and Legal Advice
A Registered Agent—also known as a statutory agent or agent for service of process—is a third-party entity or person appointed to receive important state and court correspondences like Annual State Filings, Biennial State Filings, Tax Notices, Court Notices; among other official documentation. The Registered Agent will collect the official mail or notifications, then process and communicate them accordingly to the business owner.

Role of a Registered Agent
The state government requires you to provide someone as a point of contact for your business at all times to accept documents on your behalf. A registered agent is particularly important if you don’t have a physical location in that state since P.O boxes don’t fulfill this requirement. You can’t afford to miss critical information on tax payments or lawsuits concerning your business, either. It is the registered agent’s job to forward court, state, and other official documents to the business entity and notify them immediately.
The Benefits of a Registered Agent:
- Dodge Fines and Penalties; ensuring you receive official letters in a timely manner.
- Freedom to be away or unavailable during normal business hours.
- Privacy and anonymity; public records show the registered agent’s address instead of yours.
- Peace of mind; not having to be responsible for receiving official mail, staying at business location, or receiving lawsuit or tax documents in front of others.
- You can change locations without having to file a change of address with the state government.
On the other hand, if you don’t have a registered agent (which is required by most states), it might cause you to drop out of “good standing” with the state, which may result in the loss of your business license, among other fines and penalties.
Requirements of a Registered Agent Service
The registered agent of your choice must have a physical street address (no P.O. boxes) and availability at that address during normal business hours. Ideally, you want a registered agent solution that is reputable and responsible for getting documents into your hands promptly to avoid state and court sanctions, default lawsuits, and judgments, among other fines and penalties.
Attorney Registered Agent Services

You know that Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. offers complete business formation services, years of experience that can’t be matched by many and of course the best price out there! But maybe the most important reason is, the Attorney-Client Privilege in effect:
This means that if you receive a subpoena to produce information about your corporation, LLC, Partnership or Trust because of alimony, child support, bankruptcy, debt collection, foreclosure, IRS, tax collection, government enforcement action, criminal matter or anything else, Spiegel & Utrera, P.A. is duty-bound NOT TO DISCLOSE any information contained in any client communications whether oral or written. This is a powerful legal precedent to have to work for you and you can only obtain it from a lawyer. A non-lawyer Registered Agent or Registered Office service does not offer this valuable confidentiality protection.
