LegalZoom Reviews Summary

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.

Perhaps they over promised
October 17, 2015

What, only 1 consultation on a subject, as I had previously consulted various times on a matter seemed like a mid stream policy change, my policy requires of a vendor more of a under promise and over delivery, as this wasn't the case membership was terminated.

Excellent Service
October 17, 2015

I utilize LegalZoom for uncontested divorce paper and the process was great. The paper came with step-by-step instructions that assisted me in completing my divorce without issue.

Legal brief
October 17, 2015

Thanks to LegalZoom for having such a huge support system in place. The legal team you referred me to is fabulous, and we are in the process of doing stuff that by myself I would not have known how.
Thank you again!

Living will
October 17, 2015

The experience was ok but I actually did not need this paperwork what I needed was a POLST form from my doctor the Living Will is totally useless I was told by the doctor; no one will follow it, So maybe some one should check this out so clients do not get out dated paperwork unknowingly. It is good I did not have another stroke before I found out about the POLST form

I also want hereby to cancel my membership of 6 months! For nothing

I am so pleased with my decision to utilize LegalZoom for our revised living trust. The documentation provided is top quality and structured to conform to the laws of our new state of residence. The first living trust we created with local legal counsel cost over $2,000. The LegalZoom product was every bit as professional as the first at a fraction of the cost.

Bad Attorney Advice
October 17, 2015

I applied for a trademark. I paid the extra to talk with a "REAL" trademark Attorney. Just about everything he told me was incorrect and any Attorney should know that filing the way I did would have never be accepted. After being rejected I hired an outside Attorney that, while expensive, change everything he could on my filing and got it to pass. He was laughing about filling a descriptive product name and expecting it to pass. This is the last time I am using LegalZoom.

LegalZoom Recommendation
October 16, 2015

LegalZoom- My skepticism was quickly replaced with a remarkable degree of trust. My recent UX with staff and numerous services was exceptional (to my pleasant surprise, at my request cancelling a previously ordered service with full refund and no fee) Not sure of the ins and outs- but I suggested to my personal attorney that for certain services he use LegalZoom and bill me and other clients accordingly.

Legal Zoom - The Go-To Legal Website
October 16, 2015

I have nothing but the utmost respect for this company and the people working for them. I created an LLC, living and last wills and pet protection agreement all through Legal Zoom. It was a painless process, reasonable price, 100% correct, great legal documents were compiled and having the ability to call and speak with an agent about any problems or questions is invaluable. Highly recommended to everybody for any legal concerns.

Cookie Cutter
October 16, 2015

I did a Last Will and Testament on LegalZoom. There were two areas where I needed to deviate from what LegalZoom's results generated. I talked to staff at LegalZoom and was told that deviation was not possible. Three Stars is generous for this cookie cutter service.
