Why Online Legal Forms Services?

Online legal form services can be beneficial for small and large legal cases alike. Many provide forms for simple matters like a bill of sale or health care directives as well as complex forms like divorces and bankruptcies. Many also include legal dictionaries, guides and preparation services to make your legal troubles as painless as possible.

Contrary to popular belief, not all legal forms need to be filed with a court to be legally binding. Many personal forms like wills and trusts can be completed in the comfort of your own home and need nothing more than a notary public to make all documents legal.

Traditional legal services are expensive. The average lawyer can charge $150 –$200 or more an hour to fill out the same forms you can download online at a fraction of the legal cost. For example, an uncontested divorce could cost $2200 with an attorney, $300 with an online preparation service or $65 for just the forms.
