Paracorp vs CSC — Gateway Oaks’ Two Registered Agents
Understanding the two largest registered agent offices sharing the same Sacramento office complex.
Two Registered Agents, Same Office Complex
Sacramento’s Gateway Oaks Drive is home to two of the most-served registered agent offices in the region: Paracorp Incorporated (d/b/a Parasec) at 2804 Gateway Oaks Drive, Suite 100, and CSC Lawyers Incorporating Service at 2710 Gateway Oaks Drive, Suite 150N. The two buildings are approximately 100 yards apart in the same office park, making Gateway Oaks a strategic location for process servers and litigation teams who regularly visit registered agent offices.
Despite sharing a neighborhood, Paracorp and CSC are very different companies with different histories, ownership structures, and operating hours.
CSC Lawyers Incorporating Service is the trade name of Corporation Service Company, one of the two largest registered agent services in the United States (alongside CT Corporation). CSC represents 750,000+ California entities. Their Sacramento office accepts service Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM — the earliest closing time of any major Sacramento registered agent.
Paracorp Incorporated is a Sacramento-headquartered company founded in 1977 and is the only 100% employee-owned company in the registered agent industry. They represent hundreds of thousands of entities nationwide. Their Sacramento office accepts service Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM — three hours longer than CSC.
We serve both offices regularly and can deliver to both in a single Gateway Oaks visit.
