Overview
How Forming
Your LLC Works
Fifty-one jurisdictions, each with its own form and fee. We handle the paperwork, and state filing & processing always appears as its own line before you pay.
How it Works
Answer a few short screens
Pick your state and name, then your registered agent, operating agreement and filing speed. Nothing is charged until you approve the total. After paying, add the LLC's address and owners on your order page, about five minutes.
We check, prepare and file
We confirm your name is available, prepare your articles of organization, and submit them to the state within 3 business days. Expedited adds same-day submission: when your LLC details are in by 2 PM Eastern on a business day, we submit that day (later, the next business day).
You get your approved LLC
The state-approved documents land in your inbox, with optional extras like an operating agreement available from your order page.

What We Don't Do
We're a filing service, not a law or accounting firm. Our registered agent service is always optional and never bundled into a price you didn't choose. We don't give legal or tax advice, and we won't sell you a filing you don't owe: if your state doesn't require a report, we tell you that instead.
Every filing we handle can also be made directly with your state for just the state's own fee. That's not fine print; we say it on every page.
Frequently Asked
How do I form an LLC with you?+
Pick your state and your LLC's name, then answer a few short screens: your contact details, the registered agent, the operating agreement and how fast we file. Check the total and pay. Then, on your order page, enter the LLC's address and owners and sign as organizer, about five minutes. We check the name, prepare your articles of organization, file them with the state, and email you the approved documents.
How long does it take?+
Our clock starts once your LLC details are in. Standard orders are submitted to the state within 3 business days. Same-day ($198): when your details are in by 2 PM Eastern on a business day, we submit that day (later, the next business day). After that, the state's own processing time applies, from same-day to a few weeks depending on the state.
Do I need a registered agent?+
Yes, every state except New York requires one (New York uses its Secretary of State instead): a person or company with a street address in the state, available during business hours. You can be your own for free, or keep our registered agent service ($199/yr) ticked in the application so our partner's address, not yours, is on the public record. Nothing is charged for it at checkout; the first year is charged to your card when we appoint your agent, just before we file. It renews yearly and we remind you 30 days before. Once the agent is set up you can turn renewal off from your order page; before that, reply to your order confirmation email.
Who is listed as my registered agent?+
If you choose our registered agent service, our partner, Northwest Registered Agent, at its office in your state. We forward the legal and state mail it receives for your LLC to you the same business day.
What if my name is taken or the state rejects the filing?+
We check name availability before filing and you can give us a backup name. If the state rejects it because of the information you gave us, we make one correction and refile at no service fee; any extra fee the state charges is yours. If it's rejected because of our error, we fix it and refile at no cost to you, and if we still can't get it filed, we refund our service fee.
