MyFloridaLLC vs LegalZoom

LegalZoom is the most recognized name in online legal services, and for good reason: it does far more than form LLCs. Trademarks, wills, contracts, and attorney access are where it genuinely shines. If your needs are broadly legal, it's a serious option.

LegalZoom's Basic plan is $0 plus state fees and covers the formation filing only. Pro runs about $249 plus fees and adds an EIN, an operating agreement, and a compliance calendar. A Premium tier (around $299+) adds a short attorney consultation — something most formation services don't offer. One thing to know: registered agent service is $249/year and isn't included in any plan — the highest among the major services — and the checkout is well known for pushing add-ons.

LegalZoom is a national paperwork-and-legal-services company. It files your LLC and sells you legal products; it doesn't build the business that LLC is supposed to run. You won't get a website, a business phone, a Google Business Profile, or any help with Florida's local requirements — the city and county business tax receipts and certificates of use you actually need to operate legally here. That part is on you.

MyFloridaLLC is Florida-only, and it's built around the opposite idea: the filing is step one of opening a business, not the finish line.

Owners who need ongoing legal work — trademarks, contracts, attorney consultations — beyond just forming and running a business.

Florida owners who want to open operating — filed, found online, and reachable — without assembling five vendors and decoding county licensing on their own.
