Corporate Maintenance Plan

The "In-House Counsel" for Small Business Owners™

People running small or mid-sized corporations have overwhelming responsibilities. They often simply do not have time for such tasks as maintaining proper corporate minutes and corporate records. But doing so is vital for protecting personal liability and the business' tax status with the Internal Revenue Service.

As part of our comprehensive business law services, the attorneys of Bellas & Wachowski are able to help solve the problem of maintaining your business' standing to transact business in the State of Illinois as a corporation. With our "Corporate Maintenance Program" we will:

  • Act as your Company's official Registered Agent in the State of Illinois for service of process to insure you receive all formal notices from the Secretary of State and legal process
  • Remind you in advance of your Company's Annual Meetings of the Shareholders and Directors
  • Maintain your corporate minute book and seal
  • Complete the summary and minutes of the Annual Meetings of the Shareholders and Directors
  • Prepare and file the Annual Report and Corporate Franchise Tax with the Illinois Secretary of State

In addition, our lawyers provide unlimited telephone contact with you during the entire year to answer your questions regarding the daily business issues which confront you in your business enterprise. We believe strongly in providing close, attentive service to each client, lending our many years of experience to every aspect of their business.
