From our Delaware Branch Staff:
For those of us located in the Mid-Atlantic Region, this should come as no surprise since we're currently experiencing the second major snow storm in five days, but for those of you in the rest of the country we think it's important to note that Governor Jack Markell has declared a State of Emergency in all three counties in the state of Delaware. What this means for the people snowed in in Delaware is that the roads are off-limits to all non-essential personnel, and anyone found driving unnecessarily can be ticketed.

For those of you outside the state of Delaware, this means that if you need any searches, certificates, or copies from the Secretary of State, they are unattainable for the time being. This State of Emergency, which was declared as of 12:01 a.m. on February 10th, will continue until terminated by the Governor. For current information on the storm, you can keep checking with the State via twitter: @destorminfo

There are over 5,000 entries from all over the country at this year's competition and First Corporate Solutions is honored to receive two awards for their advertising and direct mail campaigns. These winning pieces were developed by First Corporate Solutions' Marketing Director Samuel Hon.

How it works is simple. Our Update and Verify™ search allows users to receive a preliminary search report with images conducted with broad-based search logic, and then a consolidated final report within 6 hours with information verified against the state UCC data. In addition to providing accurate search results previously unavailable in an uncertified search, we update the index through date to coincide with the Secretary of State.

To experience this fantastic new UCC searching feature, the Delaware Online UCC Search with Update & Verify™, visit www.ficoso.com/newuser.asp or contact First Corporate Solutions' account representatives for more information at 877.230.8933.

Due to the unique shortcomings of the Colorado UCC index, FCS has evaluated the data and established methods of overcoming the deficiencies with the following:

1. Filter out inactive filings: Save time filtering through all the inactive filings from the original Colorado SOS
2. No longer puzzle over "Unknown" filing type: We have identified and replaced the unknown UCC3 filings with the correct filing information
3. Eliminate concern over incomplete filing history: We have researched and re-attached most of the UCC3s that were filed but not attached to their corresponding UCC1

You can now perform your Colorado UCC searches online and retrieve your document images via our extensive image library, immediate access is available to these documents via direct download, fax, and email. Log on to www.ficoso.com and start searching today!
