After four years of not communicating with LegalZoom they were extremely cooperative on getting my account recovered and up to date. When it came to federal law they were prompt to keep me updated on mandates and regulations. Very professional and well mannered business.
The most horrible customer support and the longest wait times I have ever experienced. I purchased an LLC package with all the bells and whistles to include expedited processing. After two months of waiting, broken promises from customer support ("It will be finished today, we are so sorry for the wait..."), many unanswered questions, no contact, hours on the phone and in chat rooms, and a refusal to refund services not rendered, I cannot recommend LegalZoom.
Wonderful experience with Melissa! She is wonderful&very professional&high level of listening skill even though it's through chatroom.
Second time placing an order with legalzoom. Attempting to do a simple out of state filing on behalf of my employer. Used legalzoom since I am no expert (even though it is just a simple one page filing I figured I am better off paying a little extra and ensuring it is done quickly and correctly). What a huge mistake. It still isn't completed and the order was placed in July (writing review on 10/21). My managers ask about it daily and I look completely incompetent when I have no explanation.
After about 1 month of waiting LegalZoom reached out for additional information. I provided the info and didn't hear back for another ~3 weeks. Keep in mind this is a simple filing. They called to say an additional fee was required. I wanted to speak with a manager to cancel the order because it took them 7 weeks to get to a point that we should've reached in 7 days.
On 6 separate occasions I have been told I will receive a manager call back within 48 hours. I have spent countless hours on hold and on the phone trying to reach a manager because out of 6 times I haven't received a call. Once or twice is okay. SIX TIME WITH NO CALL BACK! Who do I talk to? Everytime I call the service agent says "Wow I do see you have multiple requests. I am so sorry I will make sure they absolutely call this time." SIX TIME!
I have been trying to cancel the order for two months but I have to speak with a manager to do so otherwise I don't get my $250.00 back. HOW DO YOU SPEAK WITH A MANAGER WHEN A MANAGER WONT CALL YOU?
Never again. I deal with dozens of service companies for work and this is BY FAR the worst one I have ever dealt with. AT&T, DirectTV, Comcast are all a breeze compared to LegalZoom.
Congrats LegalZoom, I am so helpless I have resorted to writing my first online review.

Thanks for sharing your experience, Rene!
I ordered a simple Last Will and Testament on February 14,2019 and was supposed to have this document no later than February 18th, 2019. It is now April 15th, and I am on hold again with customer service looking for my documents! I have called numerous times with promises of action, but unfortunately, this has created more problems. April 11th my original order was cancelled as information I had entered was not duplicated on their format. A new order was placed on the 11th and I completed the information again on the 12th and submitted. Once again this is stalled as it shows payment is due on this order. I have already paid for a product I never received and was told to disregard the notice. Brings us up to date on April 15th, 2019 and again on hold with customer service trying to find my documents! I used Legal Zoom as a quick way to put together a legal Last Will and Testament after I found out I have terminal stage 4 cancer. I would have been ahead of the game going to attorney from day 1, no hassles, no headaches and have a will in place. So the customer representative just came back after 10 minutes on hold and has no reason why this is held up again and cannot override the system to show the will has been paid for. I just requested a full refund and I will go to my attorney and have this drawn up. WASTE OF TIME, MONEY, AND NUMEROUS HEADACHES! NEVER RECOMMEND TO ANYONE.
