Amazing customer service
July 12, 2023

I will keep coming back to get any help that I need if that is provided by legalzoom.
Awesome customer service. Initially I was hesitant & was also stressed about creating & applying for an incorporation. But their amazing customer service helped me to create it unexpectedly easily.
I will recommend their services to everyone who needs it.

DON'T!
March 28, 2020

They took my money, put my order on "HOLD", and never let me know why... Its been two months and still I have no LLC... They don't respond to my email inquiries and kept my money... I'm out $350 for nothing... I guess a pack of lawyers will know how to cheat you out of $350... It's an amount not worth going to court for and they rely on that...

Hi Steve. We've had an opportunity to review your order and we've been trying to get in touch with you about the delay. We need to confirm your business name. It seems you've completed an LLC questionnaire but listed your business name with a Inc ending (meaning corporation filing). Please send an email with your name confirmation directly to a manager via help@legalzoom.com.

Great Services and Great Results!
February 17, 2016

Had a great experience, very user friendly simple and straight to the point. I wold refer anyone to legal zoom to setup there business especially if they have an idea of what they want to do but no Idea how to do it. I wanted to start an entertainment business and I was unsure about paper work taxes etc. And Legalzoom made it simple and understandable for a great price.

I wish I would have taken the time to read these reviews prior to placing my order. I initiated my order on May 24, Paid a significant upcharge for their "Expedited" and all inclusive service. The order was to be completed in 5-7 days. Today is June 6th, the website claims the order will be completed by June 18. Currently on hold for my second " Request for More Information" call. Been on hold for over 54 min despite the estimated 21-23 min hold time. Had to pay an additional charge, last time I had a "Request for More Information Call" Cant wait to hear this excuse why the order cannot be completed in their advertised "Expedited" time frame. My order number is ******* for the poor individual who has the responsibility to respond to these complaints. Still on Hold after 1:06. Called their sales department and got right through.

Professional Excellence
August 17, 2023

I spoke with Noel today. I was seeking help on a 100% Veteran owned LLC set up and filing. She was more that helpful, providing information to help support our new business endeavors. There was a point where she had to do a little research to find the answer, where I absolutely appreciated it as it is not always something people are willing to do or even admit they need to find supporting information to help. She demonstrated exceptional professionalism and personalization to our conversation that was useful. I hope to work with Noel again in the future as I am sure we will have a few more questions.

Don't get duped by Legal Zoom. After completing the initial input for a Last Will I was directed to a page to select either the basic package or a comprehensive package. The comprehensive package included a checked block for unlimited revisions. It also included a DISTINCT separate checked block for a $14.99 a month plan (first 30 days free, cancel anytime) giving you access to a legal rep. I called and spoke to one of their representatives to inquire if the benefit of unlimited revisions was separate from the $14.99 a month plan as is clearly the implication on their website. After much obviating I learned to my dismay that these items are inextricably linked. I find this approach deceitful and purposely misleading. I will not use their service because of it and I will be sure to mention to misleading approach Legal Zoom uses to all my friends and acquaintances at each opportunity in the future in the hope that I can prevent them from being duped.

Handling the most difficult clients
July 21, 2023

When I first dealt with the representative Cynthia Stanley, I thought this whole thing was a hoax, and a credit card scam, to my total embarrassment. She was able to calm me down, convince me of records and product details that I have dealt with legal Zoom services in the past, she was extremely patient and very efficient and knew how to address all my concerns and doubts, patiently and meticulously instructing and guiding me to pass records, mobile apps for authenticity, and verification, Never seen anything like that. Hate to admit that I was a difficult client, but her customer service went above and beyond excellent.

If you are just starting out your business, Legal Zoom is the place to go as they have someone that can assist you every step of the way. They have people with expertise in all aspects of getting an LLC up and running while you learn the ropes on your own. Investing in LZ to get the ball running for your business is worth it 24/7.

Thank you Aimee!
April 30, 2020

Aimee went above and beyond and I appreciate it! I'm sure older people are hard to deal with in today's age of technology. I needed a will especially with the higher risk now with COVID-19. So doing it online was extremely stressful to me instead of a person to person where he/she fills in the forms for me, etc. Thank you to her helping me to get around a costly mistake I made... especially without being able to work right now, I can't afford mistakes.

Received two notices to save money on renewal. Called and they said I had to go with the old amount - $299 instead of $119.25. They told me they would see what they could do and get back to me. Have emailed several times and no one gets back.

Great first experience
December 16, 2015

I needed some preliminary advice prior to purchasing an S-Corp registration package. Heather, your specialist, was simply excellent and succinct. It was a very good first experience and I look forward to becoming a customer. By the way, my advisor at the SBA highly recommends your service - that's a great show of faith in your quality. Thank you to Heather.

Same issue every 6 months
September 23, 2017

Every 6 months that I go to renew my 6 month real estate lease renewal package the website does not allow me. Then after spending an hour on the phone with a supervisor they tell me it can't be done. Then I tell them to look at my history and tell me how it has been done every 6 months then for the past 3 years. They go... oohh, maybe you are right. An hour or so later they figure it out. They waste more time in labor than what they collect from me. So frustrating as my time is worth more than I am paying for this stupid service.

Amazingly painless! Incredible value!
July 17, 2023

The Legal Zoom representative (Gavin) walked me through each step of the process of filing for my LLC. The service is so fantastic, complete, EASY, and sooo reasonably priced! I wish I knew how painless it would be. I would (and should) have done this months ago and avoid egregious taxes as a sole proprietor. This is an incredibly valuable service for those of us with small but hopeful businesses. Thank you, Legal Zoom!

My expectations were exceeded today. If you need help call and ask for Tatayana. She is amazing very knowledgeable and helpful. Trust me she will exceed your expectations as well. After talking to her you will feel obligated to leave a review. I'm not the type of guy to leave reviews.

Customer Service Experience
September 24, 2019

Through an unforeseen circumstance, I had to apply for an EIN immediately, after I had already purchased the add on service through Legal Zoom. Their on-line chat was able to quickly and easily issue a refund, with virtually no questions asked. I'm really pleased with the customer service!

Hi Herb, thanks so much for sharing your experience with us and we're so happy you were pleased. Please let us know if we can help with anything else.

Overview

LegalZoom's reputation is marked by a mix of commendable customer service experiences and significant operational challenges. Many customers praise the professionalism and helpfulness of individual representatives, highlighting their ability to simplify complex processes and provide thorough support. However, a substantial number of reviews reveal frustrations with service delays, unresponsive support, and issues related to incomplete or incorrect service fulfillment, leading to feelings of dissatisfaction and mistrust. This dichotomy suggests that while LegalZoom has the potential to deliver valuable assistance, systemic issues in service delivery and communication hinder overall customer satisfaction.
