BUSINESS NAME AND FORMATION
From a name idea to a company formation plan.

CLEAR FORMATION PRICING
Our service fee is $0.
You pay only the required state filing charges. There is no added preparation fee. The state sets the amount based on location, entity and filing method.
Georgia example: an online LLC filing currently costs $110 through the Secretary of State. That total includes a $100 filing fee and a $10 state service charge. Optional expedited processing costs extra.
