So it may be best to choose an actual office location (have any lawyer friends?) rather than your own address. They're also technically expected to be at the listed address during business hours to receive official correspondence if you get sued or something. edit: note on this.the registered agent's address gets published publicly. If you're registering something like an out of state Delaware LLC, there are usually lawyers that will do your whole registration for $50, and serve as your in-state registered agent for $25-$50/year. However, you can put anybody in your filing state as a registered agent.including yourself. They try to charge you $150 per year to serve as a registered agent. Then you avoid all of the other BS upcharges legalzoom/NOLO try to tack on.įor example.on top of the base service rate, LZ tries to charge you $80 for "EIN number obtainment".which is something that takes ~2 minutes to obtain for free through the IRS site. Rather than paying LegalZoom $150 to register your business.nearly every state has a free online registration portal that walks you through the exact same step by step process, and usually takes less than 15 minutes. You'll end up paying $300-$700+ dollars for something you could have done fairly easily for free + your state filing fee. I can't speak for all of them.but in my experience these are complete ripoffs for basic business formation in most cases, unless you're doing something particularly complicated. I hear lots of entrepreneurs/independent workers suggest sites like Legal Zoom or NOLO for things like LLC formation.
