Who Is Capitol Corporate Services as a California Registered Agent?
Capitol Corporate Services, Inc. is a California Corporations Code Section 1505 registered corporate agent — one of a limited number of professional firms formally certified by the California Secretary of State to act as agent for service of process for business entities registered in California. It is the California operating entity of Capitol Services, Inc., a registered agent and corporate compliance firm founded in 1978 by John Robinson and Cheryl Roberts in Austin, Texas.
Capitol Services represents one of the oldest registered agent firms in the country. While competitors like ZenBusiness were founded in 2015 and even well-known national players have changed hands or pivoted repeatedly over the decades, Capitol Services has operated continuously for nearly five decades under consistent leadership — though it is worth noting that in April 2023, Clearview Capital completed a recapitalization of Capitol Services, Inc., bringing in private equity backing from Clearview Capital Funds IV and V, with Northstar Capital providing junior debt. The company continues to operate under CEO Kevin Roberts and COO Jody Roberts.
How It Works
Step 1 — Entity Verification
Search the California Secretary of State’s business database to confirm Capitol Corporate Services, Inc. is the designated registered agent for the entity you are serving. The filing will show one of the three CCS entity names — use the exact name shown.
Step 2 — Personal Delivery to Suite 217
A process server must personally deliver the documents to an authorized employee at 455 Capitol Mall, Suite 217, during business hours. Capitol Services’ own documentation confirms they maintain a dedicated service of process contact for each registered agent client. Staff are trained to accept.
Step 3 — Capitol Services Notifies the Client
After accepting service, Capitol Services scans and uploads the documents to the client’s Corporate Entity Manager portal and notifies the designated contacts. For process servers, the transaction is complete upon personal delivery and execution of proof of service.
