Why You need a Registered Agent for your North Carolina & Virginia Business

November 26, 2021 | business

Are you an entrepreneur, starting a business, or an existing business owner? Either way, it is imperative that you have a Registered Agent for your business.

Under North Carolina & Virginia law, every business in the state needs a Registered Agent – this includes LLC’s, corporations, nonprofits, partnerships, and limited liability partnerships. A Registered Agent is an individual, corporation or entity that your business designates to receive official documents. These documents can include state agency notices, regulatory information, tax notices, and lawsuits. The Registered Agent has the duty to inform and deliver to the business all important documents that are delivered.

As indicated by the list above, it is not required that a Registered Agent be an attorney. However, the McCormick Law & Consulting Registered Agent Package provides value that far outweighs a non-lawyer Registered Agent service.

Our Registered Agent package includes:

Accepting service of process and legal notices
Preparing your Annual Meeting Minutes
Filing your annual renewal with the State
One no charge telephone consultation with an attorney

As your Registered Agent, we become part of your business team. In addition to ensuring your business meets all required filings for operation, you receive the expertise of our legal team. Our telephone consultation is provided to the business owner to discuss any topic pertinent to the business. This reflects our team’s dedication to providing turnkey solutions for your business. We have helped hundreds of businesses as their Registered Agent and would love to do the same for you.

Being a first time business owner, you want to make sure you're making all the right decisions. Choosing McCormick Law & Consulting, along with Emma and Taylor, made the process so easy! Emma understood right away what my primary concerns were, and was able to execute everything in a very timely manner! She was extremely easy to talk to and she took the time to explain everything to me, settling my nerves with taking this next big step. Taylor made the process of making it all official completely stress free.

McCormick Law & Consulting was integral in the creation of our non-profit. We promised our 12 y/o son that we would keep fighting cancer for kids like him but we couldn’t have kept that promise without John McCormick and his team. We were hooked at our first meeting when John simply asked “ Tell me about you son.” McCormick Law and Consulting took care of all the legal work while allowing us to focus on our mission. John and his team continue to be a great resource and supporter of D-Feet Cancer The Dalton Fox Foundation. We couldn’t have asked for better legal representation. Thank you McCormick Law & Consulting.

I definitely could have created my new business, Davis Wealth Management LLC, but boy that would have been a mistake. Because business formation is not an area in which I practice, I had no idea where my blind spots were, and let me tell you there were plenty. The knowledge I received from the firm is invaluable.

John McCormick and his firm are very reasonably priced and quickly and efficiently assisted me in creating my new business. It was completely turn key; they did everything for me. I can't recommend their services enough. Also, huge shoutout to Taylor who kept me informed every step of the way!

I highly recommendMcCormick Law & Consulting! My Father and I live in two separate states and the properties he needed legal services for are in Virginia. I reach out to Taylor on two separate occasions and she was very responsive and professional. The first time we used their services it went so smoothly that by the time I needed their services again I knew I could just send over the necessary documents, pay my invoice and rest assured it would all get taken care of. They eliminated the stress that comes with handling some else's affairs and I so appreciate that.

From the the very 1st conversation with their office it was clear they would be responsive to all my questions and any support with my business. They are relatable and make their customers feel comfortable with any questions and or concerns that might arise while using their services. I am happy to have found them to support me with my small business needs!

I can't say enough great things about the professional team at McCormick Law & Consulting! We really had no idea of who to trust and who we could count on for quick and professional service in the Hampton Roads area for getting our new business up and running smoothly and the Team at McCormick Law & Consulting really knocked it out of the park with us!

I had the good fortune of working with McCormick Law on a business sales contract. I sent them the initial draft provided by the buyer along with a few notes about my specific concerns. They carefully went through the document and provided meaningful additions and corrections that better protected my interests. Thanks to Bobby and John for their personalized attention.

Arthur B.

Mr. McCormick and his entire team were amazing! They assisted me in a legal matter concerning a business dispute. Mr. McCormick is highly experienced, ethical, dedicated, and was prepared to fight my legal matter in court if necessary. I thank the entire team for believing in me and would highly recommend them to anyone!!

Jeanette L.

We used McCormick Law to start up another LLC and it was a great experience. I have used other lawyers and attorneys in the past and I experienced delayed responses and it was what I have come to expect.From the first interactions with Robert and his team, I was surprised to how responsive they were. I even mentioned to my new business partner that this was not normal and I was very happy.Needless to say I will be using McCormick Law for all of my business needs in the future.

Colton S.

I utilized this firm for help on a real estate matter. I felt comfortable with the advice I received and am happy to continue doing business with them and referring others to the practice. Everyone I engaged with was welcoming and made the process very easy.

John and his team were great to work with. They provided advice for starting my business and set everything up in an efficient and timely manner. I will definitely recommend them to others!
