SAN FRANCISCO, CA - September 30, 2023 – Rocket Lawyer, the affordable legal service, is announcing Rocket Legal+, a new membership that helps small businesses get all the legal, tax and compliance help they need, at the most affordable price. With a Rocket Legal+ membership, entrepreneurs get access to a wide range of smart tools and expert help from professionals to easily start, protect and run their business - from forming a business entity, drafting essential legal documents and contracts, receiving expert legal advice, filing trademarks and taxes, and ensuring ongoing limited liability protection and compliance. The average Rocket Legal+ member who uses their benefits saves over $1,500 a year operating their small business - and in many cases, business startup costs are even tax deductible.

Taking the jump to start a small business involves a flurry of activity - there is a mix of possibility, excitement, confusion, and doubt. The initial stages can feel overwhelming. Beyond establishing what your business does, what should it be called? How should it be structured and where should it be filed? What legal documents are required to operate? And, most importantly, how do you know what you’re missing? Hopeful entrepreneurs are faced with numerous legal and compliance hurdles, and not knowing how to protect yourself from the common pitfalls and risks can be costly. Navigating these legal and regulatory intricacies is a snap, with Rocket Legal+ benefits like smart tools at your fingertips and professional help to guide you every step of the way.

With Rocket Legal+, you can start your business on the right foot in under 10 minutes. Answer a few simple questions, and we’ll get started right away. Then your Rocket Legal+ membership provides year-round benefits and support for you to run, protect and grow your business:

Establish legitimacy and start up your business confidently - Our smart tools and Rocket Legal Concierge™ team will help you secure your business name, structure your business appropriately, and secure your tax ID so you can legally operate from the outset. Next, we’ll register any necessary trademarks to protect your brand, get your business governance documents in place, and help you set up a bank account to ensure separation of your business and personal assets. We can even act as your Registered Agent to handle official state correspondence or receive legal service of process in the event your business is served in lawsuit.
All the help you need to operate - Once you’re up and running you can create a wide range of documents for your business with just a few clicks, or ask questions any time to receive personalized recommendations from our AI-powered assistant. Need more help? Book a call with a member of our Rocket Legal Concierge team to talk through hiring and managing employees or how to operate your business. They can even connect you with a tax professional or attorney when you need advice from an expert. As your business grows we will ensure your compliance needs are covered. For example, we’ll be there to guide and remind you so you have plenty of time to file your business taxes or Annual Report each year.
Flexibility and speed - Have everything you need to get started? We’ll submit your business filings directly to your state of choice the same day and expedite processing on any additional services where you need a faster turnaround. Plus, we’ll make sure you’re never wondering what the next step is. We’ll keep you informed with notifications as your filing progresses and alert you if anything extra is needed.
Affordability - Straightforward pricing makes the savings clear. Using even a small number of Rocket Legal+ benefits quickly add up to significant savings compared to one-off purchases through alternate or multiple vendors. For example, why pay full price to register a trademark when you get HALF OFF as a Rocket Legal+ member. Save as you use!

“The unique and ongoing legal requirements faced by small business owners require a complex matrix of support to manage, and we’re here to empower them with a one-stop solution so they can focus on their core operations, confident in the knowledge that their legal needs are well taken care of” said Charley Moore, founder and CEO of Rocket Lawyer.

“Rocket Legal+ membership is a game-changer for my small business”, added Jennifer Fischer, founder of Pasta Paradise food trucks and a Rocket Legal+ member. “After I formed my C-Corp, I drafted my Bylaws and started using Rocket Sign for all my vendor contracts. Two months later I had completely forgotten about my quarterly estimated taxes, until I got a text reminder from Rocket Lawyer. The cost savings and peace of mind it provides are invaluable. Highly recommend it!”

Kathleen is an incredible product manager. She has focused ownership over end-to-end delivery of products and in one year, she has led product development efforts to launch our quote, renewals, and agent quote - three of our primary policy applications. She is fueled by curiosity, and never shies away from feedback or taking on a challenge. In less than a year, Kathleen gathered and leveraged industry and domain knowledge to develop credibility with our underwriting and ops team and uses that information to propel future opportunities and development. As she has transitioned into a Product Management lead role, and her insights and expertise will be critical asset to coach and mentor other Product Owners, and I have no doubt her leadership will quickly strengthen product acumen on our team. I am so grateful to work alongside Kathleen and eager to look towards her future.
