I am thinking of setting up a Limited Liability company, and am looking for a state that does not have high annual fees. I was told New Mexico was such a state. Is this true, or are there other states that would be better. My home state of NC charges $200/year. How is the best way to research a lawyer for the state chosen??Thank you.

It doesn't really work that way.
Your company needs to set up where it will have business transactions.
That means that if you're a large company, you are registered in many (or all) states.
Yes, many people incorporate in DE but to do so, the company must have contacts (business transactions)
in DE.
I believe I answered your question...?
It would seem if I had an attorney in that state, that would be a contact. Did you find what state had low fees or free registration?
It doesn't work that way. It isn't a 'contact' as in the way we usually use that term.
It is a connection - if you do business in a state you MUST be registered in that state.
Again, if you perform business tasks in a state, your company has to be registered in that state.
ok thank you
