Master Service Agreement

This Agreement is made between Empire Compliance Group LLC ("Agent") and the entity/individual purchasing the services ("Client"). By paying for our services, Client agrees to the following terms:

1. Scope of Service

• LLC Formation (Articles of Organization preparation and filing).
• EIN/Tax ID Registration (federal and state).
• Mandatory Publication Coordination (6-week local newspaper advertising for new NY LLCs).
• BOI Reporting (Beneficial Ownership Information filing with FinCEN).
• Certificate Procurement (e.g., Certificate of Good Standing).
• Registered Agent services: accepting Service of Process (SOP) and official government notices; scanning and digitally delivering such notices to the Client via the email address on file.
• Not included: Agent is NOT a mail forwarding service for general business correspondence, packages, or marketing mail.

2. Legal Disclaimer

Empire Compliance Group LLC is a business document filing service. We are NOT a law firm or a CPA. No information provided by us should be construed as legal or tax advice.

3. Client Obligations

• Current Contact Info: Client MUST maintain a valid, working email address. Agent is not responsible for missed notices due to full inboxes or spam filters.
• Updates: Client must notify Agent of any change in contact details within 5 business days.
• Authorized Mail: Client agrees NOT to use Agent’s address for anything other than official legal and state filings (no Amazon packages, bank statements, or general marketing).

4. Digital Delivery & Consent

Client explicitly consents to receiving all legal documents in digital (PDF) format. Receipt of an email notification with a digital scan constitutes "Delivery" of the document. Agent will destroy physical copies 30 days after scanning unless physical forwarding is requested at Client's expense.

5. Limitation of Liability

Agent is not liable for any lost profits, legal fees, or "Default Judgments" resulting from the Client’s failure to respond to a scanned document. In no event shall Agent’s total liability exceed the total amount paid by the Client for the service during the current 12-month term.

6. Privacy & No Physical Access

Agent's address is for filing purposes ONLY. Client has no right to use the Agent's premises for meetings, storage, or as a physical place of business. Client agrees not to visit the Agent’s physical location. Unauthorized visits result in immediate termination of service.

7. Fees and Refunds

Government filing fees are non-refundable once the application has been submitted to the respective government agency. Service fees collected by Empire Compliance Group LLC are refundable only if a cancellation request is submitted before we have begun processing your application or filing documents with the state. Once the preparation of documents or the filing process has commenced, all service fees become non-refundable.

8. Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York, Richmond County (Staten Island).

9. Service Delivery & Cancellation

Services are considered delivered once the filing has been submitted to the respective government agency or the completed documents are sent to the Client's email. For recurring services, such as Registered Agent representation, the Client may cancel the service at any time by providing written notice via email to info@empirecompliance.pro. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the current paid term, and no further charges will be applied.
