LegalZoom's "What's Your Story?" Video Contest Puts Customers in the National Spotlight

LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - October 9, 2009) - Since LegalZoom.com launched in 2001, more than one million customers have discovered a more convenient and affordable way to take care of common legal needs like wills, living trusts, name changes, copyrights, trademarks, patents, and business incorporations (including LLC formation). If you're one of LegalZoom's customers, your personal story just may win you some cash and some valuable national media exposure.

Now through November 20, 2009, LegalZoom invites customers to submit a video sharing their personal story and how LegalZoom helped them in the process. Did you take that first step towards financial independence by starting a business and forming a Corporation? Did you finally create a Last Will and trust to protect your family? Did you change your name and become a pop star? Customers who used any LegalZoom product or service on or before August 20, 2009 can enter. Videos will be posted to a special page, and visitors can vote for their favorite entries. One grand prize winner and two runners-up will be announced on December 20, 2009 and will receive cash prizes up to $5,000 plus a chance to be featured in LegalZoom's next TV commercial.

"The Internet is a great tool for building communities, and connecting with people who are on a path similar to yours," said Brian Liu, co-founder and chairman of LegalZoom. "We hope people will have fun creating their entries and sharing their stories with others."

This isn't the first time LegalZoom has called upon customers to share their stories. Janet Long used her mother's secret toffee recipe to launch Elaine's Toffee Company and turned to LegalZoom to form her business. Long's story was featured in LegalZoom's national ad campaign, which has received 1.4 billion impressions on national TV, plus additional media coverage. Thanks to a winning business model, and the national coverage she received through LegalZoom's ad campaign, Janet is enjoying strong sales and national product distribution.

LegalZoom's "What's Your Story?" contest is a chance for entrepreneurs to win prizes and national exposure through LegalZoom -- simply by submitting online to www.legalzoom.com/contest/.
