Excellent help and support for my small business
February 14, 2018

Melissa Harris did a great job of taking care of the paperwork for my C corporation filing requirements and she also answered all my questions that I had about the filing requirements. I also had the opportunity to purchase 2 more years of service using Legalzoom. I will recommend Legalzoom to all my contacts and customers for their small businesses.

Sucks
March 28, 2016

For over a year I have been waiting for my divorce. I was just notified that it's to complicated for them cuz we have children together but haven't gone to court for custody! This has been a HUGE waste of time! Over a year and now I'm right back where I started from! Way to go legal zoom!

Although I used Legal Zoom to create my first business, this second time around is a nightmare. It has been over a year and its they labeled my character of business "Any Legal Purpose" I am in real estate have been in real estate through the whole process. To fix their mistake I have to call the IRS (and its that easy right?)

6 stars out of 5
August 30, 2023

If I could I would leave an extra star! I so appreciated being able to have my questions answered with a representative who did not add any pressure to the conversation whatsoever. As a result, I did use the service to establish my LLC and I recommend to anyone who needs the kind of products and services LegalZoom offers to work with them as well. I'm looking forward to using more of their products as I scale my business.

Legal Zoom Sticks with You
July 11, 2023

I originally signed up with another company, but the customer service /chat was not knowledgeable. When I went to Legal Zoom, the customer service associates were knowledgeable and stayed in the conversation with me while I signed up and started the legal process. Also, Legal Zoom gives me access to an actual attorney, which you need when filing legal paperwork.

Can't wait to sign up!
November 5, 2023

I have established my EIN as of last year. I am turning my business in to an LLC, Jeremy was informative and answered all of my questions. I appreciate the price as I will get protection for my business and clients. I really liked that they have a 6 month and 12 month option. I need to draft up contracts for my clients portfolios and I feel confident that I will see all my business legal needs met.

Melanie is awesome
December 22, 2019

I needed assistance with the status of an existing order via live chat. Melanie helped me locate the order and also provided additional information regarding that order without being asked. She went above and beyond to make sure I received the information and assistance that I needed. Thanks Melanie!

Incompetent!
March 10, 2017

I ordered a simple LLC in September 2016. I was currently a sole proprietor. They misfiled my paperwork under a different LLC name (not sure how that could happen). It took 4 months for them to correct the error! I received an email stating everything had been submitted to my state and the IRS. Here it is March 2017, my state has received the notice and everything looks great. The IRS has never been notified. I just got off the phone with LegalZoom and they claim they never mailed it to the IRS, just my state! If they are this incompetent with an LLC I would hate to use them for anything even remotely complex!

Amazing experience
September 1, 2023

I was helped by Jason today and honestly am glad I got him he was amazing help answered all the questions he could and the questions he couldn't answer he knew exactly where to guide me to find the answers he also was just very warm and comforting all of his help and information was invaluable I would strongly recommend him to any of my friends looking to start a business. (P.s it also helps that he connects on a personal level kind of guy you can sit back and relax with just sipping beer)

No zoom
December 19, 2017

Submitted to Legal Zoom on 14 November. 19 December Legal Zoom tells me they delivered it to the state on 8 December. WTF? I mean like really. More truth, I called the state and found out the llc paperwork was not even dropped off till 13 December. Someone has lied, not good business.

CUSTOMER SERVICE EXCELLENCE
September 8, 2016

LegalZoom Representative, Courtney Buhr went above and beyond the call of duty for this 100% disabled veteran going through a particular challenging period in my life.

I greatly appreciate this as I am being confronted with a variety of personal and professional challenges simultaneously.

Miss Buhr is a great asset to LegalZoom.

Kris helped me understand all aspects of the process. He was kind and patient in answering my questions. I had avoided the process of filing because I was not clear about the process. But Kris helped me through everything. I wish all agents had the same type of personality like Kris!

Horrible
March 1, 2024

Never us them. It is a rip off. They issued me 3 duplicated DBA's and then would not refund or fix it. Charged me for all 3. They would not issue a credit to fix and would not fix the DBA's I had to pay for the ones they screwed up again. Never again.

LegalZoom attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
Date of experience: February 20, 2024

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.
