What We Do

Six articles of practice.

The discipline a corporate services firm brings to a portfolio of entities, delivered by a team that knows your organization directly, not a rotating account team.

Article I

Governance Audits

A full governing-document and structural review, benchmarked against the standards that actually apply to your entity type, delivered as one report with a prioritized remediation plan.

Article II

Governing Document Drafting

Operating agreements, partnership agreements, and bylaws drafted with the precision the filing requires, in language your members, partners, or board will actually read.

Article III

Compliance Monitoring & Filings

State annual reports, franchise filings, and registered-agent tracking across every jurisdiction you operate in, including 50-state charitable registration.

Article IV

Meeting Support & Minutes

Meeting attendance with formal minutes and resolutions turned around the same week: a governance record you can produce on demand.

Article V

Fiduciary Training & Transitions

Duty-of-care and duty-of-loyalty training for boards, managers, and partners, paired with structured succession planning for leadership transitions.

Article VI

Entity Formation & Structuring

Guidance on choosing and standing up the right structure, with formation documents built for the governance work that follows.

Exhibit A

Fee schedule.

Retained monthly, like an outside corporate secretary. Not billed by the hour, and not staffed by a rotating account team: a dedicated point of contact at every level of engagement. All tiers cover LLCs, limited partnerships, and nonprofit corporations equally.

About Us

Governance built with the rigor it deserves.

Ironclad Governance Solutions applies the discipline of a corporate services firm to entity compliance: governing documents drafted with care, filings tracked before they're due, meeting records kept in order. We work directly with LLCs, limited partnerships, and nonprofit boards that want that discipline without carrying it in-house. The result is a governance function that holds up to scrutiny, whether from a board, a funder, or an auditor, without the overhead of a full department.

  • Entity-Specific ExpertiseWe work across LLCs, limited partnerships, and nonprofit corporations, applying the standards that govern each one rather than a single template stretched to fit.
  • Direct AccessEvery engagement runs through the people doing the work. No account managers, no support queue.
  • A Record You Can Produce on DemandMinutes, filings, and governing documents kept in a state ready for a board meeting, a funder's review, or an audit, at any time.
