LegalZoom's free AI assistant answers questions using business records, identifies filing deadlines and connects owners with attorneys or specialists.

LegalZoom launched LegalZoom AI Assistant, the company said in a press release. The free tool answers operational and compliance questions using information from each customer's business records.
