The Hurdle

Many entrepreneurs don’t realize that a DBA registration isn’t just a single form; it often requires a four-week legal publication in an approved newspaper. Missing a step or filing with the wrong county office can result in your registration being voided, forcing you to start over and pay fees again.

The Pro Business Solution

Our founder, Marcelo Umanzor Blanco, began this business by specializing in these exact four-week legal publication ads. We have an insider’s understanding of the County Recorder’s requirements, ensuring your DBA is filed accurately and your publication requirements are met without a hitch.

FAQ’s

What is a DBA and do I really need one?

A DBA (Doing Business As) allows you to conduct business under a name other than your legal personal name or registered corporation name. It is essential for opening bank accounts and branding.

How long does the DBA process take in Los Angeles?

While the filing can be done quickly, California law typically requires a 4-week publication period in a local newspaper. We manage this entire timeline for you.

Can you help me with a DBA even if I’m not in Downtown LA?

Absolutely. We serve a massive area including the San Fernando Valley, Santa Clarita, and various Beach Cities.

What happens after the 4-week publication is finished?

Once the publication is complete, an affidavit is filed with the county. We ensure all paperwork is finalized so your business name is officially on record.

Is a DBA the same as a Trademark?

No. A DBA allows you to do business under a name locally, while a Trademark provides broader intellectual property protection. We can provide guidance on both to ensure your brand is protected.
