You could have an attorney coordinate on behalf of you, but still the info to be kept by them would still be your personal information
Leaks can happen at any point in the chain. In addition to leak at the service provider itself, for example email servers and the corporate registers themselves can be compromised/breached. But that doesn't make the question any less valid.
Some service providers them are familiar with PGP for encrypting emails, Signal for secure messaging, and most use some sort of encrypted data storage system, but that only protects (to some extent) against malicious actors. It's the rogue employees and corrupt/incompetent officials that are the biggest risk and most common source for leaks.
To an extent, it depends on the nature of the services they provide︀ to you.
If it's advisory only, then you can avoid having your own name disclosed︁ by going through an intermediary such as a lawyer.
But if the service provider is︂ setting up a structure for you, then for the purposes of UBO disclosure, the ultimate︃ service provider still have to know the client's identity. Declaring your attorney as UBO is︄ not only false and illegal, but also dangerous in that your attorney can then take︅ all your assets and you have no recourse.

Interesting. I'd be grateful if you can share couple big names who either use encrypted emails or Signal.
- Send Files via 3rd party time limited secure file sender.
- Communications via email kept straight to the point.
- Choose a agent in a country where they are a smaller player (unheard off).
