“As I was conducting research on setting up a US company, USA Corporate Services was the only site that provided me with such a detailed response. I was able to get answers and explanations for my questions. They helped me decide what type of company I should form. My company was formed very quickly as they promised. I would definitely recommend USA Corporate Services to those who want to form US companies, especially to nonresidents because they really help you.”  – Darren Waite, Frontier Distribution USA Inc., Australia

 

“USA Corporate Services has a friendly staff that really pays attention to their customers. At first I thought their prices were a bit high, but I would rather know my company is formed properly then having any problems. They really helped me avoid a costly mistake by letting me know that I shouldn’t form an LLC, but a corporation. They referred me to a tax accountant who really helped me and also told me an LLC for a Canadian is a bad idea. That really ensured the level of knowledge the USA Corporate Services staff has. They really pay attention and answer all my questions in a timely manner, even after I incorporated my company.” – Richard Sharabura Cellex-C America Corp, Canada
