LegalZoom.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: LZ) is a digital legal solutions provider founded in 2001 and headquartered in Glendale, California. The company was established to make legal services more accessible and affordable for small businesses, families and individuals by offering self-guided document creation, attorney-reviewed services and subscriptions for ongoing legal support. From its inception, LegalZoom has focused on leveraging cloud-based technology and an intuitive online interface to streamline the preparation and filing of key legal documents, removing much of the complexity traditionally associated with legal processes.
LegalZoom’s core service offerings include business formation documents such as articles of incorporation and operating agreements, intellectual property filings including trademark and patent applications, estate planning documents such as wills and living trusts, and a variety of compliance and regulatory forms. In addition to one-off document preparation, the company offers subscription-based plans that pair subscribers with independent attorneys for ongoing advice, contract reviews and annual compliance support. Several of these plans are tailored to meet the needs of entrepreneurs, startups and growing small-to-medium enterprises, providing a scalable legal support model that adapts as clients’ needs evolve.
While LegalZoom’s primary market is the United States—serving all 50 states and the District of Columbia—the company has expanded select offerings into international markets, including the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. Its web-based platform supports real-time tracking of document status and provides access to educational resources, legal forms libraries and interactive tools designed to guide users through each step of a transaction. Complementing its digital presence, LegalZoom has built strategic partnerships with accounting firms, financial institutions and professional organizations to enhance distribution channels and deliver bundled services to business owners and individuals.
The company was co-founded by Brian Liu, Brian Lee and Edward Hartman, each bringing entrepreneurial and legal technology expertise to the venture. LegalZoom’s executive team is led by President and Chief Executive Officer John Suh, who oversees product development and strategic growth initiatives, and Chief Financial Officer Mary Rose Wood, who manages the company’s fiscal planning and financial operations. Under their leadership, LegalZoom continues to invest in artificial intelligence, user experience enhancements and attorney networks to expand its service offerings and maintain its position as a pioneer in online legal services.
