Our Primary Goals

Our primary goals for producing these services were quality, quantity and accessibility. Having multiple forms, clauses, and practice tools at your disposal, state-specific and general, will enable users, regardless of legal specialty or geographic location, to produce exemplary characteristics of written legal advocacy and firm best practices.

Forms, Clauses and Agreements

Statutory and case law that underpins many of the forms and clauses is well-established law that has remained undisturbed for years. Most have stood the test of time and legal scrutiny, while others are as current as tomorrow’s docket.

Our forms, clauses, agreements, and practice tools are updated regularly by contributions from attorneys in specialized areas of practice. Their names and addresses are sent with their forms and practice tips in case direct contact is desired.

Search Results and Costs

The results of the search requests we perform are sent without cost. Upon review, if you extract drafting language, use a form or clause after editing, develop an approach scenario, or discover a practice tool that your firm will use in the future, the payment of $2.50 per document used, regardless of type or length, is expected. This is established by your count and payable upon use, not to exceed 10 days. The Honor System of payment has worked well for us over time.
