Registered agent guide

Registered agent mail and legal notices

Where scanned registered agent mail shows up, what the "possible legal notice" email means, and why it should be opened the same day. This page is general information. We are not your attorney.

Updated For members with registered agent service

Who your registered agent is

Your registered agent is Registered Agents Inc., our partner. Vermilion Vitez is not your registered agent.

We sell registered agent service through Registered Agents Inc. Mail for your business at the agent address goes to Registered Agents Inc. Scans of it appear in your member account.

For what a registered agent does, and how it differs state to state, see Registered agent requirements by state and the cost comparison.

Read your mail in My Mail

Scanned mail appears in My Mail, with possible legal notices sorted to the top.

  1. Sign in and open My Mail.
  2. Open an item to read the scan.
  3. Download the PDF if you want to keep a copy or send it to your lawyer.

We email you each time new mail arrives, with the subject "You have new mail." These emails cannot be muted.

What to do next

Open it the day it arrives. Our notice email says to open it today and contact a lawyer.

We are not your attorney. This is not legal advice, and we cannot calculate your deadline.

The registered agent notice triage page covers what common registered agent letters mean.

Common questions

Is Vermilion Vitez my registered agent?

No. Your registered agent is Registered Agents Inc., our partner. We provide the service through them and show the scanned mail in your account.

Can I turn off the new mail emails?

No. The "You have new mail" and possible legal notice emails have no mute. The compliance mute setting does not cover them.

Is a tagged item always a lawsuit?

No. The tag comes from the document title only. Open everything, and ask a lawyer about anything that looks like a court paper.
