Questions answered? Let's get started!
"Lis Pendens" Latin for "Pending Suit". A Lis Pendens is recorded at the probate court when the essence of the matter is related to real property described in the Lis Pendens. In the case of a Mechanics Lien, the Lis Pendens is filed after the judgement has been proclaimed and foreclosure is started. The foreclosure affects title to the property. In a divorce case, if one spouse owns the property solely, a Lis Pendens is often filed to prevent the sale of said property before the divorce is settled. When a purchaser of property does a title search and sees a Lis Pendens, they know that there is pending litigation, and if they purchase the property they would be held to the outcome of the litigation. Imagine buying a house and the settled litigation says one spouse gets $90,000 for their equity in the house. A buyer could be held to that outcome since they purchased with a Lis Pendens Notice attached. An Alabama Lis Pendens states: The court of the pending case, county of the pending case, case number, object of case, Plaintiff (person(s) filing the case), and Defendant (Person(s) defending the case). Many times, a case has multiple plaintiffs and/or defendants, which need to be listed on the Lis Pendens Form, this form has space for up to 8 of each.

Sign up was rocky. Tried to access documents and msg. said did not recognize my email (even though it had sent me an email). Contacted support and it was resolved. House transfer affidavit straight forward and easy to fill out.

Great service! I downloaded the Quit Claim Deed package and I'm so grateful I did. It contained detailed directions on how to fill out all the forms, an example of a finalized copy, and excellent customer service. Also, if you choose to use their digital service, they will digitally submit the documents into the County Recorder's Office for you. Going through DEEDS.COM for the service I chose saved me over $300. Recording my new deed was a breeze. Thank you again DEEDS.com!

You could make instructions clearer on the download process and when download is complete. You could also group things together for 1 or 2 "big" downloads.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I recently purchased online DIY legal forms, and I must say I was thoroughly impressed. The documents provided were accurate, comprehensive, and precisely what I needed. The accompanying guide was clear, instructive, and really bridged the gap for someone like me who isn't well-versed in legal jargon. What stood out the most, however, was the inclusion of the example. It served as a practical reference and made the entire process so much more approachable. Being able to see a filled-out sample made all the difference. Overall, this product has been invaluable in helping me navigate legal processes on my own.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
