Arizona Statutory Agent Definition
Arizona Statutory Agent
DEFINITION
A Statutory Agent is an individual or a business entity that the corporation or LLC appoints for the purpose of accepting service of process (lawsuit papers or legal documents) for the entity. The agent is called a “statutory” agent because a statute requires that the entity appoint someone for this purpose. If, for example, a lawsuit is filed against the entity, the Statutory Agent will be the one who is served (receives the papers on behalf of the entity), and then the Statutory Agent should give the papers to the entity. The law requires that corporations and LLCs maintain a statutory agent with a valid Arizona street address (not a P.O. Box or personal mail box) on the records of the Arizona Corporation Commission at all times, and the failure to do so will subject the entity to being administratively dissolved. Official notices from the Arizona Corporation Commission will be sent to the statutory agent.

Terri J Lee S.Arizona MemberI originally joined LegalShield because I wanted to get my will completed. However, I have kept my membership because of the value it provides. I feel good knowing that if I have a legal question or if I need help with a legal document, I can contact LegalShield. I would highly recommend this company, and in fact, I have referred some of my friends and family members

Anthony L.Texas MemberIt was awesome! The Provider Firm that I spoke to was great and the cost of this service is great, too. My wife, kids and I have a Provider Firm in the palm of our hands. For $24.95/mo., the investment is well worth it.
