A Legal Requirement for Most Entities
Most states require business entities–including LLCs and Corporations–to appoint a Registered Agent (sometimes called a Statutory Agent) located within the state of formation. This agent must be available at a physical address during business hours to receive official government correspondence and legal notices.
While some business owners choose to act as their own agent, using a professional service like Arc & Ledger keeps your home address off public filings, frees you from staying at one address during business hours, and puts document handling with a service whose job is to forward it.
Privacy Protection
The Registered Agent's address is a matter of public record. By using our service, you keep your personal or home address off public databases and out of the hands of marketers and solicitors.

A secure Client Portal invitation is sent only after Arc & Ledger accepts the engagement or you purchase an available fixed-scope service. A call, waitlist entry, or contact form alone does not create portal access.
