About SingleFile:
Companies need to comply with state and local regulations wherever they operate. It’s important, detail-oriented work that must be done. Getting it wrong means penalties, delayed transactions, and even the inability to conduct business in a state. To-do lists, spreadsheets, and email don’t easily get the job done with the accuracy required. The two large service providers that dominate this space overcharge and underperform. SingleFile replaces this administrative burden and gets the job done quickly, easily, and precisely so that companies and their law firms can focus on their business.
