Your LLC's newspaper publication, handled.
New York makes every new LLC publish its formation in two newspapers within 120 days — or lose its right to do business. We run all six weeks in both designated Albany County papers and hand you a ready-to-file packet. One flat price.
No hidden fees. No guesswork. 100% money-back guarantee.
How it works
Three steps over about seven weeks. You only do the first and the last.

We publish & track
We place your legal notice in both county-designated newspapers and track the full six-week run for you.
You file the packet
We collect the affidavits, assemble your Certificate of Publication, and email it with simple instructions. Sign, add the $50 state fee, mail it — about ten minutes.
Why us?
Most services bury fees, upsell mid-process, and route you through cluttered order forms. We quote one number and stand by it.

Questions
The details worth knowing before you start.
Why does my LLC have to publish in newspapers?
It's a New York requirement (LLC Law §206): new LLCs must publicly announce their formation in two newspapers so the public can see the business exists. Miss the 120-day window and the state can suspend your LLC's authority to do business.
Which newspapers — and can I pick them?
No — the county clerk designates them. For Albany County that's one daily and one weekly paper. We use the correct designated papers automatically, so the notice is valid.
How long does the whole thing take?
The notice runs once a week for six weeks. With affidavit collection on top, you'll have your finished packet in about seven weeks. Filing it with the state from there takes you roughly ten minutes.
Do you file it with the state for me?
We assemble the complete Certificate of Publication packet — both affidavits included — and send it to you ready to file. You sign it, enclose the $50 state fee, and mail it to the Department of State. We include the exact address and step-by-step instructions.
Do you only serve Albany County?
For now, yes. Your office address must be in Albany County — we verify it before you pay, so you never get charged for something we can't do.
