Corporate records and governance
The records that prove who owns and controls your company.
Many companies were formed quickly and never finished the paperwork. Bylaws, consents, issued shares, and a stock ledger are what prove ownership and control to a bank, a lender, or a certifying agency. NSC finds what is missing or inconsistent and fixes it for your state, your ownership, and your structure.
Repairing records that were never finished
Many companies never adopted bylaws, issued shares, or recorded who the officers are. NSC rebuilds those records, ratifies past actions, corrects share ledgers, and documents ownership correctly, so the company can open accounts, borrow, and certify without delays. The rebuild is scoped from the Discovery Assessment and quoted in writing.
Keeping governance current
Custom bylaws, board and shareholder consents, resolutions, share issuance and transfer packages, stock certificates and ledgers, and bylaws amendments, each drafted for the company's state and structure.
Parent, holding, and related companies
For multi-entity structures, NSC prepares share transfers into a parent or holding company, intercompany management and lease agreements, and the resolutions that authorize them.
Copyright registration
NSC prepares and files U.S. Copyright Office registrations for original works, such as manuals, course materials, and software, with your company as the claimant. The fee is $300 per work, and the Copyright Office fee is separate.
New entities, on request
NSC can form a new entity on request when a structure calls for one. Formation is quoted from the starting fees on the fee schedule.

Questions
Common questions
My company was formed online. Are my records complete?
Often not. Online formation usually covers the Articles and the EIN only. Banks, lenders, and certifying agencies also ask for bylaws, an organizational consent, and proof of share issuance. The Discovery Assessment shows exactly what is missing.
Is the EIN extra?
No. NSC obtains the EIN at no charge.
Are documents reviewed by an attorney?
Documents marked for attorney review on the fee schedule are reviewed by NSC's attorney before delivery, billed at the attorney's rate plus 10% as its own line.
