If you are just starting, you can do all that on your own. No need to pay someone to do it for you. Just go down to your local government offices, and they will gladly help you. I had to register my company name by filling out a Fictitious Business Name paperwork and then having it listed in a newspaper. As for the ID number, I just got an EIN, and that was simply some paperwork I had to file through the IRS (I got the application online). I don't see why the FIN would be any different...

You can check with your States Attorney General to find out if you can use the name you like. The FIN is easy - I got mine from this site below which is the official Govt site. To register you name with the state it will probably cost around $10. The FIN is free.
Good luck.
Also, what type of business are you in. If you don't mind - check out my website www.qbs4u.com - see if we can be of any assistance to you in your business - not in getting this information set up. All of the information I have provided to you is free - except for state fees for registering your name - which you can do. Also when you look at my website, check out the links on the additional services page - great info there too.
Have a great day.

Easiest way to get everything done at the same time is to hire use a corporate planner. They will get all the necessary paperwork filled out, filed, and done correctly to start a new business.
