I had an excellent experience working…

I had an excellent experience working with Amanda Brooke at Northwest Registered Agent while setting up a new LLC. Amanda made the entire process incredibly easy, transparent, and efficient from start to finish. She took the time to clearly explain each step, answered all of my questions promptly, and made sure everything was handled correctly without any confusion or delays.

What I appreciated most was how helpful and responsive she was throughout the process. Forming a new LLC can feel complicated, especially when you want to make sure it’s done right, but Amanda guided me through everything in a way that made it straightforward and stress-free. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to go the extra mile made a big difference.

I highly recommend Northwest Registered Agent, and especially Amanda Brooke, to anyone looking to form an LLC or set up a business entity. The service was smooth, reliable, and exactly what you want when you’re handling something this important.

Just a SCAM

What Northwest did well: They helped me get my LLC stood up.

Where they failed: They did not dissolve my business when I requested, resulting in 3 years of "out of status" with the state. During this time, I did not get any communications from Northwest about being out of status, and they did not close my account when I requested.

When I asked them about making up for their errors, they said I had to hire a CPA to bring my business back into good standing with the State. Which was false.

I filed the missing reports with the State myself at a cost of $927 -- which I would not have owed had Northwest done their job. Plus the $103 I had to pay for Reinstatement so that I can dissolve the entity.

When I pulled out the email where I asked them to dissolve the business and that I had already filed the reports, and said I would not be paying 3 separate invoices that were outstanding, they wrote back and said, "that's fine," and they closed my account with them as well as all of the invoices.

Not once did they ever own up to be culpable or for failing. Nor did they offer to refund the $1030 that I incurred due to their negligence.

Horrible customer service rude

Several issues with this company regarding their phone service. It is only $9 but the issue is they will erroneously cut off the service and cause major problems for your business, where you cannot reach customers and no one can call you. This happened to me on 2 occasions and when you call about the customer service is horrible. They could care less they act like you are the problem. The first time it happened was resolved in a day the 2nd time it was off all weakened because they cut it off on a Friday evening. This is ridiculous this low-cost service cut off with no warning. Also, the email said it is cut off for nonpayment which I paid the account it was an error. Even if this was true I did not receive any notice of this they just randomly cut off the phone. Completely unprofessional over $9 this is absurd unheard they do not value their customers.

Have not adhered to timelines and follow-up has been inconsistent

I bought a package from NWRA to support me with the state filing and establishment of company (a consulting firm). They completed the initial filing paperwork within the expedited timeline that I paid for, but since then their service has stalled and I've been repeatedly given timelines that they haven't adhered to. For example, the package includes development of a website landing page within 10 days (after sharing feedback to their questions). I submitted it on February 12, and as of March 9th I still have yet to be provided with the landing page. I requested a domain name swap (purchased the name elsewhere) and was told this would take 48 hours, yet still waiting almost a month later. They said 6 days ago they would provide an update by end of day, and still no update. At this point, I can't recommend this company and I'm extremely disappointed with their service. I suggest going with a more trustworthy company that is transparent in their services and respects customer service.

Bad to the point of sounding crooked

Bad to the point of sounding crooked. Don't use this service if you need top-notch customer service. Their website looks great, but the way they do business appears that they are using offshore call centers with non-American help. I just found out after receiving a reminder email to pay the annual fee regarding my LLC annual report that the LLC had been cancelled the year before due to non-payment, which I'm quite certain I didn't let slip. So when I paid this year's fee, they then told me that the LLC was cancelled last year, and that I would still have to pay LAST YEAR'S FEE, plus a reinstatement fee of $220. I'm quite certain that only non-American help would screw this up so badly. So not only am I NOT going to pay any further fees, but I'm also going to file a complaint with the State of Wyoming to tip them off that they need to investigate the company. Do not use.

If something went wrong with your LLC, we’d really like the chance to get it straightened out. We’re consistently recognized as one of the best registered agent providers in the country, with over 5 million customers served. Please reach out to us at 509-768-2249 or support@northwestregisteredagent.com. We’ll figure out what happened and make it right.

Poor Cybersecurity practices

So I told them that the email originally assigned to the account had been breached. They won't let me have access to my account but are charging me money including for an annual report and for a whole year when I can not access your services.

They don't offer identification through passport ID they don't work with the FBI or anything like that. Do not use this service they take your money and then they don't offer any services and I have proof of this I received an email saying we're not going to help you.

They don't have an authenticator no backup codes or anything.

The security for Northwest registered agents is poor.

They are violating Fair consumer business practices.

Hey Christina, sorry about the hassle. Privacy is a big deal for us, which is why our Privacy by Default® policy is built into everything we do to keep accounts secure. We have an account recovery process for these instances. It looks like our team left you a voicemail already, so if you give us a call back our Corporate Guides will help get the account recovery sorted out.

It's easy to get a person on the phone

It's easy to get a person on the phone, and they talk to you in a straightforward way. Feels like an old school business with traditional values. They have a commitment not to sell data to third parties.

EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE

I had an excellent experience working with Quinne’tta at Northwest Registered Agent while opening my business. From start to finish, she was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly supportive. She took the time to explain each step clearly, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and made what could have been an overwhelming process feel smooth and stress-free.

Quinne’tta’s laughter and professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care truly stood out. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled correctly and on time, giving me confidence and peace of mind as I launched my business.

I highly recommend Northwest Registered Agent, and especially Quinne’tta, to anyone looking to start a business and wanting exceptional customer service.

Stay away from this company immediately.

I previously established a company and used northwestregisteredagent as an agent.

Initially, things were fine, but then they provided no advice, no guidance on EIN registration, and no emails regarding annual reports.

Of course, I was new to this and didn't know what to do. I then filed for company dissolution.

After that, I registered with another agent like Rocketbusiness – they provided excellent advice.

Stay away from this company immediately. They were truly extortionists.

Hey Mark, we’re surprised to hear this because we’re way more than just a registered agent. Did you try reaching out? Our LLC package includes same day filing and processing, plus key documents like an operating agreement, membership certificates, and initial resolutions. We’re an independent company and handle everything in-house, so your data stays secure. Thousands of people trust us every day with formations, annual reports, EINs, websites, domains, email, phone service and more. We’re different because we offer you a fully formed business that’s ready to hit the ground running. It’s not rocket science.. we’re just better! ;)

It's worse than a scam.

Before placing the order, I emailed them numerous times stating that I wanted to use a Mail Forwarding Service, including a unique address, to use as the address for my LLC.

During the checkout process, the LLC formation and the purchase of the Mail Forwarding Service address were done simultaneously – meaning I couldn't have known the Mail Forwarding Service address when filling out the LLC formation information.

And immediately after payment, I emailed them again asking them to use the Mail Forwarding Service address as the LLC address, but they still insisted it was my fault.

It's like a game of "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"

Now I'm asking them to correct it – they won't and are demanding $152 – even worse.

I asked them to correct it and I paid the state fees – they said: "Do it yourself!"

What's going on? I paid $20/month for a Mail Forwarding Service and now I can't use that address for my LLC, but I'm still paying $20/month.

I wish I could have read reviews of their service here before paying. Luckily, in our Amazon Seller forum in Vietnam, there are over 100 people looking for an LLC service provider, and I'm the admin. I recommended northwestregisteredagent on January 23rd because I felt it was quite good, but I immediately asked all my friends to STOP IMMEDIATELY and switch to another provider.

And in the future, we will pin this review on our Vietnamese eCommerce forums so that future sellers can avoid this terrible service.
