Entity services

Cogency Global

Cogency Global provides statutory representation and corporate compliance services for law firms, nonprofits, lenders and companies. Its core work is registered agent and registered office representation, process agent services, annual and periodic report compliance, and entity formation, qualification, amendment, merger and dissolution filings.

For real estate and lending work the firm runs commercial real estate financing services, real property search services, REIT services, UCC lien searches, preparation and filing, purchase money security interest (PMSI) and consignment services, flood determinations, litigation and bankruptcy searches, and federal intellectual property due diligence. It also handles Corporate Transparency Act compliance, good standings and certified copies, assumed name (DBA) compliance, authentication, legalisation and apostille services, independent director and manager services, and international registered agent and corporate secretary work.

Founded in 1980, Cogency Global is headquartered in New York City, with separate entities headquartered in London, Hong Kong and Singapore and registered agent addresses across US states. Client tools including UCC ProFile, Entity Central and State Records Central are provided at no additional cost rather than as add-ons, and the firm has acquired Elemental CoSec, a UK company secretarial, governance and compliance firm.

Fees are charged per entity and per filing and are not posted. Ask for a schedule covering registered agent, annual report and search work before consolidating entities.
