This place is a fraud! Charged ibu's for two months which was $80 and never helped us with anything and never even responded to our questions
Wouldn't use this company for anything. Horrible service quality will not stand by there mistakes or work with you in anyway. Suggest staying away from them totally.

We forgot to cancel our free trial period and didn't realize we were being charged $39.95 per month until 4 months had passed! I called expecting to get a lot of flack, but the representative (Jude) was very kind understanding, and gave us a full refund (minus the $5 promotion which was what was what we signed up for). They have good legal documents if you need them, and better yet, back up their offer. Can't beat that! Thank you Rocket Lawyer!
Hey Judy,
Thanks for your feedback! We greatly appreciate it and if you ever need anything else that we can assist you with, just let us know at [email protected]. Thanks again.
My advice: do NOT use RocketLawyer for anything. The site claims that everything is free, and even helps you create your doc', but then won't release your doc. Until you give them all your credit card info. And as you will see on other "scam warning" sites, RocketLawyer often bills people for a form or something that was supposed to be free. Very aggravating. Steer clear of this site and this company.
Russell, We apologize for any sort of confusion. Here at Rocket Lawyer, we do provide free options for our first time customers. One of those options is a Free Trial that requires payment information because after the trial it will become a paid membership unless otherwise cancelled. We also provide the first document for free as a finished non-editable copy. If you need assistance with either of these offers please contact Customer Support at 877-881-0947 Mon-Fri 6am-6pm PST or email at [email protected].
They automatically billed me even though I never signed up for anything beyond free trial. Canceling an account with them was very hard and has yet to go through. I could not be more unsatisfied. They bill you $40 each month even on a free account and to cancel you have to delete all documents and then send their support an email. Even on my account page it says free membership yet they bill. I want a refund.
Davis, I'm sorry to hear that you have had troubles cancelling your account. It sounds like there might be a separate account that was set up with a different email address. We would be happy to assist you and rectify the matter. Please contact us at 877-881-0947 so we can locate your account. 6am-6pm PST Mon-Fri. You can also email at [email protected]
If you sign up for this service's FREE trial, be sure to check back with them because they begin charging your card immediately, and continue monthly with out ever shooting you an email invoice.
BAD BUSINESS!
Greg, We apologize as it appears there was confusion regarding our Free Trial membership. If you still have concerns regarding the account, we would be happy to address them with you. Please contact Rocket Lawyer support at 877-881-0947 Mon-Fri 6am-6pm PST or email at [email protected].
These people are unbelievable idiots. I gave them two entities to register and they screwed both of them up. They wouldn't return my calls and caused my business purchase to be delayed. Don't use them!
Zachary, we apologize that you have had a poor experience with the incorporation services at Rocket Lawyer. I want to reassure you that you can expect an Incorporation Representative to contact you today. If you have additional questions or concerns, feel free to contact me personally, 877-881-0947 ext. 5025 or [email protected].
Biggest scam going online this days
You'll never hear from them after they got their money from you
Usually I'm pretty good at not falling for scams like that but they totally got me. STAY AWAY!
Harel, we are sorry to hear that this has been your experience with Rocket Lawyer. I would be happy to personally look into the matter for you, so we can reach a resolution. Feel free to contact me by emailing [email protected] or you can contact customer support at 877-881-0947.
I wish I'd come looking for these reviews before using RocketLawyer. I purchased their services for $85 up front and a $49 a month monthly fee. During registration, I answered questions as to what kind of services I needed, ILC, Non-Profit 501 (c) 3 classification. They immediately completed the incorporation, but sent vague emails about me needing to follow up with them about the non-profit status. Four phone calls and three emails later I finnaly got to ask someone what the next steps were for completing the 501 (c) 3. Their answer... Give us $480 more. I called to cancel my services and they explained that they were now listed as my agent for the non-profit and that I would have to file to have them removed. They could do it for me for another $100. Wowsers, what a scam. This company's practices appear illegal, but I cant afford to pay them to file the claim!
We are sorry that there has been any sort of confusion or inconvenience regarding the matter. I will be attempting to contact you to help resolve the matter; however, don't hesitate to contact me directly for additional assistance. 877-881-0947 ext. 5025 -- [email protected].
Do NOT use this service! Gave my CC info then realized their forms did not apply to my situation. Could not cancel and the $39.95 charge went through. Now, months later I get additional charges.
These guys are internet thieves.
Horrible! BEWARE OF USING THIS SITE! They billed $39.99 a month for 17 months before I could get them to stop. THIS IS ONE OF THE ALL TIME SCAMS IN THIS COUNTRY.
Tony, we are sorry to hear that this has been your experience up to this point with Rocket Lawyer. Our memberships can be cancelled at anytime through the website, or by contacting us to address the cancellation. While it sounds like this was an issue, please contact us at (877)-881-0947, so we can further assist you and discuss a solution. You can call my personal extension as well at ext. 5025.
Save your hard earned $$ this company is a total scam. They will constantly try to upsell you, use scare tactics ("S corp compliance!"), take your money and never reply to any questions you have through the contact us email. Worst of all, even legal questions asked through the portal and are not responded to--unbelievable. PLEASE PLEASE do yourself a favor and save your $$.
Leo, we would like to help you in regards to your feedback and experience with Rocket Lawyer.

Please feel free to contact me directly at [email protected] or call at 877-881-0947 ext. 5025, to discuss your feedback.
Used them for incorporation with additional fees. As a result, now having a 250$ penalties from Franchise State board for not filing some additional paperwork. No clear instructions, no clear help -" we apologize". Did the rental contract through them- complete fiasco.
Their "lawyers" consultation is about how you need to become their client and pay 300$ for the consult. Stay away from these people. They need a real job.
We are very sorry to hear that there has been a poor experience with our services. We would like to assist you further, to contact our incorporation department call (888)-628-6759. They will be able to clarify any additional details regarding your particular incorporation filing.
Rocket Lawyer "free" document is a trap for rip off! If you want a "free" document, first they ask you to fill it with all your info. Second step, they will ask you to agree with their "Terms of Use" and then... the rip off... It is not just a "Terms of Use" like everybody knows and agrees. There is a obligation to you become their member with monthly charge included!. If you don't cancel your NOT ASKED membership in 7 days, they will charge you forever. Even if you send emails asking to cancel it, they will NEVER answer. Stay away from Rocket Lawyer!
Dear Flavio,
We apologize for any sort of misunderstanding. We do offer free options to all of our first time customers. The Free Trial membership gives free access to legal documents for the duration of the Trial Period, which is 7 days. When the Trial offer is accepted, there are Terms which indicate clearly that it will become a paid monthly membership of $39.95, unless otherwise cancelled.
We are happy to address these types of concerns and come to resolutions with our customers when there are misunderstandings or confusions; however, because the charge has been disputed through your financial institution, we are unable to refund the charge to your card. Please note that your account was downgraded (cancelled) as of 10/26/2015, so no further billing will take place.
If you would like to discuss the matter with me personally, please contact me directly through my email [email protected], or by phone (877)-881-0947 ext. 5025 (which can be dialed once you reach the menu.)
Signed up for the 7 day trial, then looked over documents and downloaded one, but it turned out to be not what I wanted, so I cancelled online. But then 3 months later I found I was getting charged $39.95 a month anyways, even after cancelling. Reported them to my credit card company and put a block on them. STAY AWAY!
I used the site to make one very simple legal document five months ago, and was then charged $39.95/mo because Rocket Lawyer claims that I signed up for a free trail that was transformed into a monthly plan because I did not discontinue the free trail within seven days. I remember carefully selecting the option that did not provide for this, but, of course, I have no proof of this. This should not be legal, and I expect that it is not, but I simply don't have time to pursue this. Rocket Lawyer has developed a corrupt, but effective, If anyone begins a class-action lawsuit, please let me know.
Firstly i never recieved any paperwork that i asked for on the one time trial documents. Them rocket lawyer signed me up without my permission. They won't lete cancel under my login account otherwise. But i contactedy bank. So hopefully they can straight things out. Please beware rocket lawyer is not what they claim to be.
I never signed up but they started to steel 40.00 every month
I contacted this site to complete a very simple affidavit for the State of Arkansas. The site represents that it has templates for all states. Apparently not, for me, anyway. There was no place for attestation of uninterested parties, which Arkansas requires two. Also there were no additional Notary attestations for the three affiant signatures required within the document. I sent them an email regarding the issues and just, today, received a boiler plate email that was as useless as the service offered. Thank goodness I was only ripped of $10.00.
I subscribed to Rocket Lawyer and find it very helpful. I have some experience with legal forms, and find Rocket Lawyer to be simple and easy to use. I use it for leases, contracts, deeds, agreements, etc. It can also do more complex things like wills and trusts. They walk you through making a document and store it for you so you can edit it for future use. Great for small businesses, or anyone who doesn't want to pay a lawyer $250 to do a simple document. I suspect he has his secretary use a program similar to this to do it for him..
Answer: Sorry, but I would try any other service before Rocket Lawyer. All they will do is take your money and then tell you to go find a lawyer. Waste of time and $$.
Answer: Hi Norma. We're happy to assist with any questions you have. Give us a call at 877-881-0947 M-F 6am-6pm PST. -Matt

Answer: Hi Brit, Thanks for your question. We are a legitimate business; our 7-day free trial does require credit/debit card information, but so long as it's downgraded (cancelled) within the 7 days, there is no billing whatsoever. If it isn't downgraded within that timeframe, then it will convert into the Premium Monthly Plan. You can downgrade your membership online, by phone, chat, or email. Please let us know if you have further questions or concerns.
Answer: Hello Randall, Please email us at [email protected] explaining your billing situation and be sure to include the email address that you've signed up with. The Free Trial is free for 7 days, if it's not cancelled within that time frame then it does convert into the Premium Monthly Plan, which is explained at the time of sign up. We hope to hear from you soon.
Answer: Hello Patrick, We're glad to look into this to make sure your membership was downgraded (cancelled). Please send an email to [email protected] including the email address that you've used to sign up with so we can take a look at your account.
Answer: Hi there Maria, Thanks for your question, but unfortunately this is not something that we can answer for you and we greatly apologize for that! You would need to get this answered by an attorney. If you're in a membership with us, you can ask a legal question in the "Ask a Lawyer" tab that we have when you're logged in to your account. If you need assistance locating it or if you'd like help with signing up for a membership, please call us at 877-881-0947 (M-F, 6am-6pm PT).
Answer: Hello Norma, We appreciate your question! Unfortunately I myself am not an attorney, so I am unable to answer your question as to how difficult it will be to file for a divorce on your own. At Rocket Lawyer, we do provide a Divorce Settlement Agreement and a Divorce Worksheet, which can help with this process, but it will not be the only documentation you will need. You may need to obtain documents from your local county clerk's office, I'd recommend giving them a call or visiting them in person. If you're in a membership with Rocket Lawyer, you're more than welcome to get a consultation set up with an attorney to discuss your situation at no extra cost. If you aren't in a membership and would like to find out more about what we have to offer, please feel free to give us a call at 877-881-0947 (M-F, 6am-6pm PT).
