Does LegalZoom Handle Its Own Trademark Registrations?

LegalZoom offers trademark filing services, so naturally, when it comes to its own trademarks used to promote this and other of its online, non-attorney document preparation services, it trusts these to its in-house team, the same ones used by its customers, right?
