The latest results on the direct experimental search for a Standard Model Higgs boson decaying to a pair of Z bosons are presented. The H->ZZ*->l+l-l+l- final state is considered, where l = e, mu. Studies for electrons using the GSF algorithm to account for bremsstrahlung will be also presented. A dataset of ~5fb^-1 of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the CERN LHC during the 2011 run are used.
