They won’t stop charging your card after incorporating even if you aren’t using their service and explicitly told them not to charge you anymore Will shield behind bureaucracy. Offered $100 bonus I didn’t get. Got an address for my LLC that’s blacklisted everywhere I try to input it.

Hi, I can't speak to your specific situation as this system doesn't give me any information as to who you are, but any charges that happen after the initial incorporation would be due to subscription to our Registered Agent Service or State Compliance Service. Both these services are opt-in which means that you opted in and confirmed the subscriptions on the checkout page. We can cancel the State Compliance Service at any time, but the Registered Agent Service requires a change amendment with the state. We can't just cancel those charges while we are still listed as your Registered Agent with the state because we are still liable for forwarding you state notices and service of process. If you file a change amendment for a different Registered Agent or dissolve the business, we'll cancel your service straight away. ***** But while i'm here I also want to touch on this Trustpilot review process. At the time of writing this response, our current 362 reviews stand as: 5-star - 310 4-star - 32 3-star - 3 2-star - 1 1-star - 16 Averaged out, this puts us at a 4.71 star rating. Within 12 hours of you writing this 1-star review I received an email from Alec Plymale ([email protected]) from Trustpilot: "wanted to bring attention to the current state of your Trustpilot page, here is a quick look:" {{insert image of 3.6 average rating}} I'm not saying this review is fake, but the whole thing is suspect.

I formed a company with Better Legal on 1122 and have received all of my documents and information but because I didn’t understand the process I kept missing items. I had to call a few times and email a few times to get the situation straightened out and still couldn’t do it on my own until Abdul and Chad finally had to help me resolve all of my issues. I was so ecstatic at the help that I received from both of them. Abdul and Chad were very professional knowledgeable, funny and patient and they made the process so easy. I would recommend BetterLegal to anyone who was starting out informing a new business. Their process is so simple and their customer service agents are so knowledgeable. Thank you again to chat and Abdul. I really appreciate you both!!!

Formed my llc here, that was ok. Went back to do a get a DBA filed, I got that paid for, It was taking a while so I wrote an email to check in they said it "had been filed one month ago". All fine. Another two weeks went by so I asked why it was taking so long, no reply, another two messages sent over another two weeks, no reply again. Finally called myself to secretary of state office. Come to find out they had actually never filed. Update: The link that was sent was a google drive link with a scan in of a check, nothing with my company name, no proof that the paperwork was filed for my company specifically. The company was notified to cancel subscription for services as i took them off as a registered agent and sent proof they no longer are registered as such. Emails to cancel to them: on Nov 20th, 24th, Dec 19th, and Now January 9th to cancel services and the company refuses. If you need a DBA filed do it yourself online, it took minutes and was processed in a couple of days. Heres how this went in Email form: BetterLegal: "We appreciate your confirmation. Your card has now been charged." Sep 24, 2025, 7:47 AM Me: Are there any updates on the DBA? (as i got no update after the charge) Oct 15, 2025, 11:07 AM Me: Checking in on this email I sent last wednesday. Has this been filed? Do I have the correct email for customer service questions? Oct 20, 2025, 8:30 AM BetterLegal: Thanks for reaching out. We apologize for the delayed response. Yes, we filed the application already about a month ago. We're currently awaiting the the state's approval. See the attached for your reference. (attachment of their system that says "uploaded a month ago") Oct 20, 2025, 9:44 AM Me: Okay thank you! Mon, Oct 20, 2025, 9:59 AM Me: Hello. Is there any way to check in on the status with the state? I am confused as to why this has taken so much longer than typically expected. Is there something wrong with the filing? Nov 3, 2025, 8:44 PM Me: Following up on this Nov 6, 2025, 4:37 PM Me:Hello, I have not received an email back in regards to my question on the 3rd. If i cannot get an email back i would like to process a refund. Nov 11, 2025, 11:06 AM Me: Can I please get a filing number for this order? Nov 20, 2025, 2:20 PM (proceeded to call secretary of state) Me: I just called in to the secretary of state's office as well as logged in to SOSdirect, there was no name change filed and this was confirmed over the phone as well. Refund my purchase for DBA filing with receipt sent to this email, and cancel services moving forward as registered agent. BBB, Trust pilot, and others will be reviewed based on lack of communication. I have emailed multiple times, as well as submitted two contact forms with no attempt to communicate the matter. If there is no receipt for refund I will file fraudulent charges for services not rendered on my credit card. Nov 20, 2025, 3:40 PM (Posted Review Here & they immediately responded with a reply here and email) BetterLegal: I just saw your review come in and responded with the documents we filed and proof of the work we produced. I have no idea why you emailed 4 times in two weeks and received no response, nor do I understand what happened with your DBA filing. We will take care of it ASAP and get this taken care of for you. Me: Thanks for the apology. I see a google drive link with a scan in of a check, nothing with my company name, no proof that the paperwork was filed for my company specifically. I will attach photos of the Filing history. As stated in my previous email, move forward with refunding the $249 paid for the DBA filing as it was not filed therefore we did not receive the service we paid for and I have already completed the filing myself. There was a timeline acceptable for correction for services that has been superseded. Additionally, cancel future services as a registered agent, the pace at which customer service replies are handled and lack of communication is not acceptable for us. Nov 20, 2025, 9:09 PM Me: Registered Agent Service Have been Removed as of 11/21 with the Secretary of State Office, See attachment provided below. Please Cancel Billing moving forward for Registered Agent Services and State Compliance as there is no option for client to halt services on your website directly. Refund DBA Filing as well, and email a receipt for my records. Nov 24, 2025, 12:29 PM BetterLegal: Thanks for reaching out. I've gone ahead to cancel all subscription services as requested. Regarding the DBA filing fee, I've passed on your request for a refund to our billing team. We'll update you soon. Nov 24, 2025, 3:31 PM (No update) Me: My card was charged on Dec 9th for services that were supposed to be cancelled. Refund, provide receipt and confirmation email. Dec 19, 2025, 12:11 PM Just asked them to cancel again today on January 9th.

Hi Darian, I filed this myself, so I can assure you it was filed (see link with proof of documents and mailing) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1X0pCmR80y0Nk9j4klUeq2sU7fhSi3Qz0?usp=drive_link I'm not sure what happened to it once it got to the state, but I will have our team follow up next week.

I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the handling of my recent LLC filing. This process has been both unprofessional and unacceptable from start to finish. All initial correspondence from me, beginning on October 6th, clearly included the names and addresses of all parties who were to be listed as managers and included in the official formation documents. These instructions were completely ignored. Despite my detailed communication, the LLC was filed incorrectly. Once I noticed the business had been registered on Sunbiz (Florida Division of Corporations) late Sunday evening, I immediately inquired about the EIN and was told via email that it was being completed with the IRS. However, your most recent email now claims that no Social Security Number was provided — which is inconsistent and unacceptable. Additionally, the document you provided is incomplete and not a legally binding contract, as it fails to include the essential manager information I originally submitted. This has wasted my time and left us without a fully established and legally compliant business entity.

Hi Felicia, I have responded to this issue via the BBB complaint with proof of the change amendment you requested of us. I will continue correspondence with you there as it provides a more private method for sharing information.

They make major mistakes. You pay for the compliance package thinking all is good, but you only realize months later when you receive mail from the state that they failed to deliver even basic services. Their customer service is friendly, but they are just not technically capable of the work they sell. So I would definitely not recommend them.
Response from BetterLegalNov 14, 2025
Hi Erkin, A bit confused by the bad review here. Your annual report is due on or before Nov 1st of every year. You signed up for our service on October 9th of 2023 and the dates of each compliance filing we have made for you include: - October 30, 2023 - August 14th, 2024 - October 21, 2025 We have never missed a filing for you or ever been late in the time that you have been a customer. All of these filings can be verified via the public link here under the 'history' tab: https://wyobiz.wyo.gov/business/FilingDetails.aspx?eFNum=118162178207123050188119059174063181029026169041
