Legal Question in Business Law in Louisiana
I�m on the administrative team for a web based community, and for a variety of reasons, we are about to incorporate the community as an LLC. We�ve decided to pay to have the filings done by someone with better knowledge of the paperwork than ourselves, and are also paying for a registered agent in the state of Louisiana with the website�s administrative team listed as contacts. In order to incorporate, we need someone with a physical address in Louisiana, not a PO Box. It is my understanding that the registered agent will hold the needed physical address. Is this correct, or does a member of the website�s team (the contacts) need to hold a physical address within the state? Our contact in Louisiana is currently operating out of a PO Box, so we wanted to make sure we understood correctly before beginning the process.

The person who will be served with any legal papers needs to have a physical address in Louisiana.
