Corporations, in Texas or any other state

You can now form a corporation through the same simple intake as a Texas LLC, in Texas, any other state or DC. You only see the questions your state asks, state fees show up before you pay, and the corporation gets the same compliance and renewal tracking as an LLC.

We form standard corporations, including C corporations and holding companies.

Lone Star LLC Attorney opens, with a real Houston office

Lone Star LLC Attorney is our Texas brand: Texas LLC formation, registered agent service and compliance, run from a staffed office at 1800 St. James Place in Houston. Add a Virtual Office and that address is yours to use too. It's a real office building, not a P.O. box.

  • Keep your home address off your website, invoices and business cards.
  • Customers, vendors and partners get a street address in Houston, Texas's largest city.
  • Business mail sent to the Houston address is received and handled for you.
  • Phone forwarding gives the business its own line that rings through to your phone.

Switch your registered agent to us, and returning customers get 4 months free

Formed your company somewhere else? Moving the registered agent to us takes a few steps. You can pick up a paid switch where you left off from your companies list, and each switch shows its own status, so you always know where it stands. Corporations can switch too.

If you've bought from us before, each company you switch gets 4 months free on its subscription, applied automatically at checkout. The credit covers the subscription only; the one-time switch fee and any state fees still apply. After the free months, the subscription renews at its regular price.

A new home for Advantage Partners

Work with an accounting or law firm? Firms in our Advantage Partner program now have their own partner platform. They sign in with single sign-on, add their team, send referral links and intake pages with the firm's logo, prepare a cart for a client or pay on the client's behalf, and track every referral on one dashboard.

ImprovedBillingJuly – September

Fewer charges on your card

Paying for more than one company on the same card? We now combine those monthly subscriptions into one payment. That's fewer lines on your statement, and one payment is more likely to go through the first time.

  • See your companies, payment methods and billing history in one place, with a receipt for each company.
  • Cards you save on your billing page show up at checkout, so there's no re-entering them.
  • Payment-failed alerts clear as soon as a retry goes through.
  • Choose a multi-year plan from Change Plan and see the full total before you pay.

ImprovedImprovementsJuly – September

Smaller improvements

A handful of smaller fixes that make forming and running your company easier.

  • Longer compliance plans: choose a 2- or 3-year term when you sign up for a compliance bundle.
  • Clearer savings: your cart shows total savings and lists each discount, and your receipt matches.
  • Smarter suggestions: Sage Says, our in-app assistant, now suggests add-ons and packages that fit, including for owners outside the US.
  • What's New bar: a bar at the top of your dashboard shows new features and offers as they launch.
