A startup proposes using 'Atlantic Commercial Interiors' in contracts. Its legal entity name and applicable exemptions have not been checked. Which administrative step addresses this issue?
Correct Answer
B) Review the legal/trade name and complete any required name filing.
Check the proposed name against the legal entity name and complete required fictitious-name compliance. For a contractor business-organization application, section 489.119(2)(d) expressly requires evidence of compliance when a fictitious name is used, notwithstanding section 865.09(7). Do not assume a general DBPR exemption resolves this contractor-specific requirement.
