About LegalZone.com
A global legal education platform helping entrepreneurs understand business formation, compliance, and legal requirements — in 30+ countries.
Our Mission
Starting a business should not require a law degree. Every year, tens of millions of entrepreneurs around the world register new companies — and most of them navigate the process without clear, reliable guidance. They overpay for basic filings, choose the wrong entity structure, miss compliance deadlines, or skip essential legal documents altogether.
LegalZone.com exists to change that. We provide free, in-depth legal education so that every entrepreneur — whether in New York, London, Paris, Dubai, or Singapore — can understand their options and make informed decisions before they spend a dollar on formation services.
We believe that access to legal education should be universal, free, and practical. Not locked behind paywalls. Not buried in legal jargon. Not designed to upsell you on services you don’t need.
What We Do
Free resources designed to help you start, structure, and grow your business — anywhere in the world.
In-Depth Guides
Comprehensive, jurisdiction-specific guides covering entity selection, formation processes, taxation, and ongoing compliance. Written in plain language, updated regularly, and always free.
Legal Templates
Downloadable templates for operating agreements, articles of incorporation, NDAs, contractor agreements, partnership agreements, and more. Customizable for your jurisdiction and business type.
Global Coverage
Business formation guides for 30+ countries — from the United States and United Kingdom to France, UAE, Singapore, Canada, Germany, Switzerland, and beyond. Local entity types, local rules, local costs.
Entity Comparisons
Side-by-side comparisons of business structures — LLC vs. S-Corp, Ltd vs. LLP, SAS vs. SARL — so you can choose the right entity for your goals, tax situation, and growth plans.
Jurisdiction Guides
State-by-state guides for the US, country-specific guides for international formation, and cross-border resources for entrepreneurs incorporating outside their home country.
Trusted Referrals
When you’re ready to file, we connect you with trusted formation services in your jurisdiction. We earn referral fees from some providers, which keeps LegalZone.com free for everyone.
Who We Are
LegalZone.com is operated by EJB SAS, a French company registered under SIREN 993 526 326, based in Serris, France. We are an independent publisher of legal educational content — not a law firm, not a formation service, and not affiliated with any legal services provider.
Our team combines expertise in business law, corporate finance, compliance, and digital publishing. We’ve helped professionals across banking, consulting, and technology industries navigate complex regulatory environments — and we bring that same rigor to the educational content we publish on LegalZone.com.
Why We Built LegalZone.com
We noticed a gap in the market. Most business formation content online falls into one of two categories: oversimplified blog posts designed to sell you a $299 formation package, or dense legal texts written by attorneys for other attorneys. Neither serves the entrepreneur who simply wants to understand their options.
LegalZone.com fills that gap. We write the guides we wish existed when we started our own businesses — detailed enough to be genuinely useful, accessible enough that you don’t need a legal background to follow them, and honest enough to tell you when you actually do need a lawyer.
Our Approach to Content
Every guide on LegalZone.com is researched against primary sources — state statutes, government registrar websites, tax authority publications, and official filing requirements. We don’t republish press releases or rewrite competitor articles. We go to the source, verify the details, and explain them in plain language.
We update our content regularly as laws, fees, and filing requirements change. When a state raises its filing fees, when a country changes its corporate tax rate, when new compliance requirements take effect — we update our guides to reflect the current reality.
LegalZone.com in Numbers
Growing every day — because free, quality legal education matters.
How LegalZone.com Makes Money
Transparency matters. Here’s how we keep LegalZone.com free for everyone.
When you’re ready to move from education to action, we link to trusted formation services and legal tools. Some of these are affiliate partnerships — meaning we earn a referral fee if you use their services. This is how we fund the research, writing, and maintenance of LegalZone.com.
These partnerships never influence our editorial content. Our guides recommend what’s best for you, not what pays us the highest commission. We disclose affiliate relationships clearly, and you’re never required to use any paid service. Every guide, template, and resource on LegalZone.com is free with no strings attached.

Our Editorial Principles
The standards we hold ourselves to on every piece of content we publish.
Primary Sources
We research against government registrars, tax authorities, and official statutes — not third-party summaries.
Regularly Updated
Laws and fees change. We review and update our content to reflect the current rules in each jurisdiction.
No Pay-to-Play
Affiliate partnerships never influence our recommendations. We recommend what’s best for you, period.
Plain Language
Legal concepts explained clearly. No jargon walls. If you need a glossary to read our guides, we’ve failed.
Legal Education, Not Legal Advice. LegalZone.com provides educational content to help entrepreneurs understand business formation and compliance. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. For specific legal questions about your situation, consult a licensed attorney or legal professional in your jurisdiction. See our full Disclaimer and Terms of Use.
