As I viewed this page, I thought it was amusing that the left column of the page included an "Ads by Google" which read "LegalZoom.com - Create Reliable Documents. Fast, Affordable & 100% Guaranteed." I hope the legal profession handles this suit better than the prior attempts to address companies that produced form books. I wish the legal profession could better educate the public on true value of a lawyer's work. I went to the legalzoom website and receive "specials" by email for prices that aren't much less than what I would charge for the same documents. The public, however, believes the marketing of LegalZoom and think they are getting the same quality as they would with a lawyer. The result: do-it-yourselfers will get things wrong and a litigation attorney will make far more than a planner would have charged.
