• After you order, we obtain all necessary info about your LLC directly from the NYS corporations database. That's why we don't need to bother you for documents like our "competitors" do.
   

• First, we appoint ourselves as your registered agent in Rockland (or change the existing RA) which gives your LLC a Rockland location that we can use for publishing (because it's much cheaper there!). We do NOT change your business address, nor do we receive your mail. IT DOES NOT AFFECT YOUR MAIL IN ANY WAY. All of your business mail continues to go to your regular business address. It also DOES NOT AFFECT where you can conduct business.
   

• Then we prepare & place your legal notices in Rockland County (2 approved newspapers for 6 weeks, one daily & one weekly).
   

• After completion of the 6-week run, we obtain affidavits from the newspapers.
   

• We then prepare and file the Certificate of Publication & affidavits with the state and pay the required state filing fee.
   

• After the state processes the Certificate of Publication and sends us the Filing Receipt, we email that to you. The Filing Receipt is the only official proof of completion of the publishing process issued by the state.
   

• We continue our great registered agent service for one (1) full year from the date of your order for FREE. After that, you have choices which are explained on the order form. If you choose not to continue with RA service, you will not be charged for the second year. If your current registered agent service is through Legalzoom, we have good news for you! After you order publishing thru us, and we become your registered agent, you can contact Legalzoom to cancel their outrageously priced service and get a refund!
  
   

Things you should know

 

• We do NOT need any documents from you in order to publish. We obtain all necessary info directly from New York State.
   

• The process takes *about* 3-4 months start to finish due to state delays on "regular processing" submissions. If you choose expedited processing, the time frame is reduced to about 9-10 weeks start to finish.
   

• You do NOT need to wait for the process to be completed in order to do business. You can conduct business right away.
   

• We offer payment plans that will break up your total amount due into 4 easy payments, one payment every week. Just select "payment plan" at checkout.
   

The answer to the #1 most-asked question:

 

It is *never* too late to start the LLC publishing process. Regardless of when you started your LLC, and regardless of the deadline, you still need to publish. Your LLC will be protected as long as you get started. Just place your order and get your LLC in good standing as soon as possible. ​
 

The answer to the #2 most-asked question:​

 

What is a registered agent and why do I need one?

 

• First of all, we need to initially establish ourselves as your RA in order to tie a Rockland County address to your LLC (and save you a lot of money for LLC publishing!).
   

• A registered agent is important to have anyway. An RA is a person or entity appointed to accept service of process on your business’ behalf. If you're not around during business hours to personally accept service of a lawsuit, the case against you might be able to move forward without you even knowing you were sued (i.e. "default"). The registered agent has a physical address within the state and is available during business hours so someone suing you can easily find you. It is the RA's job to accept delivery and forward it to you in a timely manner.
   

• Note that registered agent services typically cost somewhere between $100 and $300 per year (Legalzoom charges a crazy $249 per year). We charge just $99, only after the first full year for free, and ONLY IF YOU CHOOSE TO KEEP THE SERVICE (it's optional). For some business owners, it’s well worth the fee to not have to worry about losing a lawsuit without even knowing they were sued.
   

• If your current registered agent service is through Legalzoom, we have good news for you! After you order publishing thru us, and we become your registered agent, you can contact Legalzoom to cancel their outrageously priced service and get a refund!
