Delaware LLC Name Change

If you’re looking to the change the name of your Delaware LLC, I will prepare and file your Delaware Certificate of Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State’s office to change the name of your LLC.

This filing officially changes the name, either immediately or on an effective date, whichever option is selected by the client.

Filing a name amendment, as opposed to filing a new company, will allow you to maintain your original company. Assets don’t change, liabilities remain the same, all contracts remain in force and all accounting and tax records remain the same.

The name changes but everything else remains the same. This saves you the hassle of opening a new bank account, obtaining a new EIN and creating entirely new internal documents.

Also, the formation date of the company remains the date of original formation, which is an important consideration for many entrepreneurs.

Delaware Corporation Name Change

If you’re looking to change the name of your Delaware Corporation, I can file your Certificate of Amendment to change the name.

The Delaware Corporation name will change as of the date and time the document is filed, or at some specified date known as the “effective date,” after the file date.

I can file your Certificate of Amendment with the state of Delaware relieving you of the hassle and paperwork.

The state of Delaware typically takes 3 to 5 business days to verify the name change and return certified copies of the filing documents.

When that’s done, you can continue to succeed with the new company name that properly reflects the business you have worked so hard to build.

 

Conclusion

To guarantee the correct completion of your company name change, it is highly recommended to have a business lawyer act as your designee to properly conduct the name change.
