In the complaint, the plaintiffs claim that they applied for two trademarks through LegalZoom and that the service they received constituted the practice of law. The complaint alleges that LegalZoom “trademark document specialists” who were not lawyers “provided legal advice to the plaintiffs by selecting classification and modifying the goods and services description from the template thereby applying specific law to facts.” The plaintiff recorded and transcribed those conversations with the LegalZoom employees.
