• Ministries, churches, and faith-based organizations
• Nonprofits and community organizations
• Entrepreneurs and solo founders
• Families planning for legacy and estate organization
• Individuals who need administrative clarity without the corporate price tag

Yes, we are based in Miami, FL — but we operate virtually and serve clients across all 50 states. Our compliance and maintenance services cover every state's requirements, and all of our tools, tutorials, and LAAP Suite™ are accessible from anywhere.

No. We are an administrative and IT services firm, not a law firm or accounting practice. We help you understand processes, stay organized, and meet deadlines — but we do not replace licensed attorneys, CPAs, or financial advisors.

There are several ways to start depending on where you are:

• Just exploring: Browse our free tutorials and DIY templates — no account required
• Need a system: Explore the LAAP Suite™
• Need compliance help: Visit our Annual Maintenance page
• Need hands-on support: Book a free consultation

LAAP Suite™ is our Business Operating System — a guided, all-in-one platform that handles business formation, compliance filings, documentation, records management, and annual maintenance. LAAP stands for: Legacy, Administration, Automation, and Protection.

LAAP Suite™ covers:

• Business formation guidance (LLC, nonprofit, ministry setup)
• EIN application support
• Operating agreement framework
• Compliance tracking and annual filings
• Document organization and records management
• Annual Maintenance (Standard tier included)
• Access to AI-powered business tools and agents
• Ongoing support and updates

Most business tools handle one thing. LAAP Suite™ connects all of these into one guided system with a human support layer behind it. You're not just buying software — you're getting a structured system with someone who knows your business.

Yes — starting with LAAP from day one is ideal. It helps you form your business correctly, build the right foundation, and avoid the compliance gaps that catch most new businesses off guard in years two and three.

Yes. LAAP Suite™ is web-based and works on desktop, tablet, and mobile. Chrome or Edge are recommended for the best experience.

Annual Maintenance is our ongoing compliance support service. We track your state and federal filing deadlines, send you reminders before they're due, provide filing guidance, and keep your business documents organized — so you never miss a deadline or fall out of good standing.

All 50 states. Every state has different annual report requirements, due dates, and fees. We track the specific requirements for your state and notify you in advance.

Missing a deadline can result in late fees, penalties, and in some states your LLC can be administratively dissolved — meaning it loses its good standing and legal protections. Annual Maintenance is specifically designed to prevent this.

Yes — the Standard tier of Annual Maintenance is included in LAAP Suite™ subscriptions. It is also available as a standalone service. See our Annual Maintenance page for pricing details.

Yes. Ministries and nonprofits have unique filing requirements — annual filings, 501(c)(3) maintenance, state charitable registrations. Our Annual Maintenance service covers these requirements and keeps your organization in good standing.

We offer three categories of free resources:

• Free Tutorials — Step-by-step PDF guides covering IT basics, cybersecurity, LLC setup, and more
• DIY Templates — Downloadable templates for meeting agendas, operating agreements, church forms, and more
• Free Tools — Online tools including currency converter, QR code generator, and email length checker

No account required. All free tutorials, templates, and tools are accessible immediately with no sign-up, no email required, and no strings attached.

Yes. Our tutorials are practical, step-by-step guides written for real people — not tech experts. Topics include password management, phishing awareness, cloud file organization, LLC setup, meeting minutes, professional email writing, and more. Each one is downloadable as a PDF.

Yes. We provide guided LLC formation support — walking you through choosing a business name, filing articles of organization, obtaining your EIN, setting up an operating agreement, and opening a business bank account. This is a core part of the LAAP Suite™.

All 50 states. While we are based in Miami, Florida, we assist clients with LLC formation in every state.

An LLC is a for-profit business structure that provides personal liability protection and flexible tax treatment. A nonprofit is a tax-exempt organization formed to serve a public or charitable purpose — it cannot distribute profits to members. Ministries and churches typically operate as nonprofits. We assist with both structures.

Yes. We provide step-by-step EIN application guidance. An EIN is required for opening a business bank account, hiring employees, filing taxes, and many other business activities. Our free tutorials include an EIN walkthrough, and LAAP Suite™ includes hands-on EIN support.

Yes — and this is a specialty of ours. We understand the unique administrative and compliance needs of faith-based organizations. From church incorporation and 501(c)(3) guidance to visitor forms, volunteer sign-up templates, and member records — we have resources built specifically for ministries.

Our free church templates include:

• Visitor Information Form
• Prayer Request Form
• Volunteer Signup Form
• Member Information Form

All are available free at lafariesmortimerllc.com/templates.

Yes. Our Annual Maintenance service covers faith-based organizations including annual state filings, 501(c)(3) compliance reminders, and document organization. We keep your ministry in good standing so your leadership can focus on mission rather than paperwork.

Annual Maintenance is available in three tiers:

• Essential — $197/year: Deadline tracking, email reminders, compliance calendar, IRS & state links
• Standard — $397/year: Everything in Essential + filing assistance, quarterly check-ins, SMS reminders, document review

Yes — completely free with no hidden costs, no account required, and no upsell required to access them.

• If your business is already formed and you just need to stay compliant — Annual Maintenance is your answer
