Reviewing the Laws

Legal EDGE

can be your

Corporate Registered Office

There are few advantages for the Corporate Registered Office to be the Law Firm:

  • It avoids losing a lawsuit simply because the owner of the registered address did not check the mail on time and the corporation did not respond to a lawsuit on the specified time period.

  • It allows shareholders to have access to the Minute Book during all business hours.

  • It allows the Law Firm to receive all notices for Annual Corporate Returns.
