About Us

Our Story

LegalZoom was founded by attorneys who have worked at some of the most prestigious law firms in the country. We have used our expertise to simplify the law and make it accessible for everyone.

When we started practicing law, our friends and family members immediately asked for help with common legal matters like drafting a will, incorporating a business or filing a small claims action. We found that while many people have legal needs, most of them don't want to spend the time, or the money (over $266 per hour), to see an attorney.

That's why we created LegalZoom -- to help you quickly and affordably create estate planning documents, start a business, register a trademark and more -- from the convenience of your home or office.

To make LegalZoom the best legal document service on the web, we assembled a team of legal experts, including retired judges and law school professors. All of our forms were developed by experienced attorneys, so you can be sure that our documents are dependable.

Most importantly, we are always thinking about you, our customer. Our satisfaction guarantee is second to none, and our helpful customer service representatives are available by phone.

Thank you for visiting LegalZoom. We look forward to helping you with your legal needs.
