Real Lawyer: Should You Use Rocket Lawyer and Legal Zoom

- My name is Shelia Huggins, and I'm a North Carolina licensed attorney and vlogging lawyer. People sometimes ask me whether they should use online legal products like Rocket Lawyer, Legal Zoom, Law Depot, and others. Well, in this video I share my thoughts regarding online legal products.
Also, if you are interested in saving and investing, you may want to take a look at Robinhood.

Good video. Online document processing websites are helpful to file forms quickly. However, it's what you don't know that could end up harming you in the long run.
You are totally right about that. We should be investing in understanding how tax laws impact our finances, even if we don't do our own taxes.
Very good advice
.
I will add in my experience that online services, in general, lack flexibility.
Whenever your case is or could be different than the great majority; try to keep it at the personal level.
Even doing things yourself might save you time and money and even your ability to stay in business when you have to deal with unique scenarios.
Never assume that everyone knows better than you because they run a business. Neither that you know better because you know something.
This was useful to know and kind of what I do. I want an attorney to look over a legal form required starting in 2024 and a local attorney's office didn't return my call, so I'm figuring this is something safe for Legal Zoom to do. Not always, but this time. Thank you for your advice!
Thanks for your honest opinion. I really appreciate it. Thanks again.
You're welcome.

Well said, appreciate you're unbiased advice
You're welcome!!
I’m going through a tenant/landlord dispute but my apartments are tax credit which means they can’t just evict or terminate without good cause. I signed that form when I signed my lease…the legal shield lawyer did not even know this, she even told me “lease termination and eviction are two different things” 😂😂😂.
I’m calling Tommorow to get my money back
I'm sorry to hear that. Thankfully, you knew what you were talking about. It also helps if attorneys only answer questions about topics that they know. I've been in a few situations where I was definitely outside of my lane and had to backtrack real fast.
Thank you Sheila
Wow this was very informative....keep up the great work 💯

Legal Shield beats both of them hands down. Speaking from personal experience with their products. They were there for me 2 am on Christmas day in 2014.
Same here legalshield is fantastic
I CAN think of attorneys that I have paid multiple thousands for and walked away thinking "What did I pay for?". On the other hand, helping a friend navigate the published laws and doing our own research online helped "win" a divorce action. We smoked the multi millionaire spouse's two aggressive and threatening law firms, and got them to tap the mat. We only spent time and certified delivery fees. The satisfaction of seeing them get fired in frustration twice only to have to bend to our defense to avoid the inevitable decision we confidently knew would fall in our favour should we go before a judge was so satisfying, including using opposition attorney's own website against them to force production in discovery. So sometimes, NO you are not a fool being your own lawyer. It's not always the black box many people think it is. There is almost no case or dispute under the sun that has not been submitted to a court that you can't utilize to examine and scaffold you're own defense or complaint. Just keep the emotion out of your decisions, keep rational and dispassionate and learn to read accurately. Of course depending on your particulars and situation your mileage may vary.
Can you talk about where to go to start a living trust ?
Great points to consider. Thank you👍🏽
Thanks sis

Thank You!!
You're welcome!
This was helpful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank You, helped a lot.
Good point on the quality of the lawyer. You are sharp.
Thank you!!! Here's hoping you never need a lawyer, and if you do, that it's a good one!!!
@@SheliaAHuggins thanks. You never know right ? To many variables in life where you very well may need one. Also a fan of your work out videos.
Thank you!
I hope this was helpful!!
Hey. Am I still able to use legalzoom and rocketlawyer if I already have an EIN and articles of incorporation? Thanks.
Yes. You can still use them for other things like contracts.
@@SheliaAHuggins Okay. Thanks!
So if we have no kids, property, car loans or anything like that is it ok to file online if were both in agreement? I been looking for a long time and im so fed up because I want my life back!
Same I have nothing with my ex wife and she was going to use me for her status and she cheated so isn’t that enough for divorce and asap
What do you think about legal zoom for forming a LLC for a car rental business? Out of California
It sorta depends on your overall goals. If you plan on expanding, bringing in investors or partners, etc. If it's just going to be you, you're probably ok with an LLC. This is just general info, and as a disclaimer I have to say that you should check with an attorney in California, and that this response doesn't constitute an attorney-client relationship. Ethics requirements limit what I can say in my response. But definitely consider reaching out to an attorney in California.
Thank you...
You're welcome!
Hello Sheila just stopping by to show your channel some love great video beautiful
Thanks so much!!!! Just trying to get it all in...you know how it is!!
Sheila please help me, I filed an LLC through legal zoom without the attorney option but only ended up paying fees. My LLC is 10 days old and I just paid to dissolve it because I got a lot of paperwork for labor laws and I never even used my LLC or had any employees. I don’t want to mess up with the law please assist me or any advice, will I go to jail.
When companies find out that you registered your LLC, they try to sell you a bunch of stuff that you may not need. What state are you in?
Thank you for this video. It was helpful, but it might've been even more helpful had you actually downloaded Rocket Lawyer looked at a specific will and commented on it directly. And perhaps done another video on Legalzoom like that as well. Perhaps in a new video in the future? Thanks again.
This is exactly what I was thinking
Thanks!!! Great tip. I've started a separate channel to focus more on legal tips so that I can go into more detail. I haven't gotten very far with the channel. But I hope over the summer to really kick it off.
Thanks Cleon!!! I hope to do better with the legal tips on a separate channel.
Would it be possible to use legalshield or legalzoom for a cease and desist letter?
I haven't check to see if they have them. I'm sure they probably do. You would just need to tweak it to meet your circumstances.
I signed a business partnership contract that was made by rocket lawyer. How legit is it if I take it to court?
It really doesn't necessarily matter where you get the contract from. You just have to make sure that it's what you need and filled out appropriately. You can also watch more of my legal videos here: studio.th-cam.com/channels/kYWuCT7OlXFXlgegwurPbw.html

great video!
Thanks!
You have nice eyes Ms. Shelia!
Thank you so much
Amazing video! I just released a similar one on my platform, because people just don't have the info
And I took at look at it. You are doing good things on your channel!!
@@SheliaAHuggins Thank you soooo much...
I want a lawyer for all things small business online. Any links
You should search for lawyers in your state, since that's how they're licensed. Usually there's a bar association that can provide a referral for you.
Blessings. :)
Thanks from Shaun Gorham
Shaun, thanks for checking out the video. I'm thinking about doing more lawyer videos on this channel.
said a lot without saying nothing. video retitle definitely needed. thumbs up only because voice and for being a queen
So you Ain't going to give her props, because you thinking of sex with her,
But you Dog her Brilliance and her articulation.
I'm sure her I.Q. is Sharper than your Flat F Key note.
Stop being a hater Because you Can't Date Her.
She spoke a whole lot of something, and Educated a lot of folks.
You black she black & I'm black.
You sound like a white boy hater
Thanks for the tip. A better title might be the disadvantages and advantages of using online tools like Rocket Lawyer and Legal Zoom, since that more appropriately describes what I actually discussed. And thanks for the thumbs up...very much appreciated.
In a post pandemic world, what is true in 2020 will not be true in 2021 and beyond.
With the arrival of FICO 10, COVID-19 lawsuits, and other stressful events... Be prepared to see blood in the streets, including your own.
Please stay safe and healthy, everyone. We are now living in a new and strange world, inundated with an ever increasing threat of many uncertainties and pitfalls. 😞😞😞😞😞
Great Video. How do you find a lawyer when the particular case involves multiple issues? For example: Covid mandate. Employer is under 100 But using their personal beliefs to deny testing as an option for its employees. Also, religious EEOC exemption is a consideration and unemployment benefits is consideration. Also, OSHA violation consideration by giving potentially misleading information to its employees.
It sounds like since these are all related to employment, an employment lawyer would be the best bet.

Best Advice! Thank You :-)
Glad it was helpful!
Are you a lawyer?
Yes. I am.
Everything said was common sense, wish this was more informative
Thanks for your comment. Going forward, most of my in-depth legal topics are going to be on a separate channel. That way, I can go into more detail. I appreciate the comment.
Maybe it was “common sense” to you
I can tell she fine
Thank you 🙏🏾
