We serve downtown Des Moines businesses daily and are at CT Corporation and Corporation Service Company several times per week.

*Normal Turnaround Times are estimates based on historical averages of previously completed cases and well as projections based on current availability of our servers. These estimates should be used to give you an idea of our goals and what can be expected most often but are not guarantees. We do our best to complete each service as quickly as possible, however, since each case is unique and circumstances vary, exact service dates are impossible to predict.
