Georgia Registered Agent
What is a Georgia registered agent?
A Georgia registered agent acts as a point of contact for your business. Your registered agent accepts service of process and other important documents on behalf of your company. Agents accept these notices in a designated location called a “registered office.”
You must list your company’s registered agent and office in your initial formation or registration filing with the state. Your Georgia registered agent can be an individual or a business. When you hire Lawyer Agents to be your registered agent, you get expert registered agent service, as well as connections to our vast network of legal specialists.
What does a Georgia registered agent do?
A Georgia registered agent has several essential duties:
Maintain availability
Georgia registered agents should be regularly available during standard work days and business hours.
Accept notices
Georgia registered agents accept service of process, legal communications, and notifications from the state.
Relay notices to business
Georgia registered agents let businesses know when they receive service of process or other important notices.
The above duties represent the minimum expectations of a Georgia registered agent. However, at Lawyer Agents, we know that our clients deserve better. That’s why we go above and beyond, providing our clients with the following:
Solicitations and advertisements can easily obscure more important notifications that require immediate action. We sort through the junk to ensure you get key notices without clutter.
Upon receipt of service of process, we scan and upload a PDF copy of the document, so we can deliver it electronically. You’re then able to view and respond to important notifications fast.
Our online system automatically monitors if and when our clients view new documents sent to their accounts. If we sent you a document you haven't opened, we'll let you know.
Finding a local business lawyer you can trust can be a challenge. If you find your business in need of legal assistance, Lawyer Agents can quickly connect you to one of the many qualified attorneys in our network.
Do I need a Georgia registered agent?
Yes, business entities operating in Georgia are legally required to maintain a registered agent and registered office in the state. Both domestic and foreign businesses require a Georgia registered agent. Having a registered agent ensures that your company can be easily contacted.
