Our story

In 2001, we established ourselves as a tech company dedicated to making legal help accessible to all. With that mission in mind, we launched 10 online services, focusing on estate planning, business formation, and intellectual property protection.

Soon, word began to spread: there's a new, easier, and less expensive way to get legal help.

In 2010, after a decade of growing our services, we innovated again, and created an independent network of attorneys so our customers could get personalized legal advice—without having to leave home.

We knew there were still other ways we could help small businesses. So in 2020, we launched LZ Tax, a LegalZoom company. We now offer expert tax advice and accounting solutions that include full-service prep and filing.

With offices in Los Angeles, Austin, and the Bay Area, our united workforce of talented, diverse, and inclusive Zoomers is our recipe for success, and the reason we're able to empower millions to make their dreams official.

The values that guide us

People first

We're all about people—both inside and outside the company—and we’re committed to their continued wellness and success.

Unstoppable

We think big and work tirelessly to deliver the best experience for customers—and the best environment for employees.

Purpose-driven

We're united by our mission to democratize law, and we strive to improve people's lives in everything we do.

Simplicity

This is a complex industry, and we've made it easier for customers and employees to get work done while facing fewer roadblocks.

Making it official for everyone

We believe legal help should be accessible to anyone—regardless of who they are, who they love, the color of their skin, or their economic status.

We strive to support the broader small business community and general public through our social impact efforts. To do so, we're building lasting partnerships with nonprofits to help lift up underserved and underrepresented communities, often excluded by the traditional legal system. Beyond partnerships, we take part in corporate giving, and empower our employees with community service days off and corporate matching programs.
