A registered agent\’s liabilities primarily involve receiving and forwarding legal documents to the LLC. Negligence in performing these duties, such as failing to forward court summons, could result in legal consequences and liability for damages. Additionally, breach of contract may arise if agreed responsibilities are unmet. Professional liability insurance often protects against such risks.
