Arizona Rev. Stat. 14-11013 outlines the requirements for a certification of trust in the State of Arizona.
A certificate of trust is used to disclose information about a trust to a person who is not a beneficiary of said trust. This document, an abbreviated version of the original trust, verifies the existence of the trust and the trustee's authority to act on behalf of the trust. It provides the necessary information about the trust while leaving out non-essential personal information.
The trustee is held liable for information presented as fact in the document.
Contact a lawyer with any questions that may arise when preparing a certificate of trust.

I would appreciate being able to increase the size of the blocks such as the Grantor block and the legal description block where information is enter on the form and to adjust the font. Otherwise great product,
Thank you for your feedback Michael. We do wish we could make that an option. Unfortunately, adhering to formatting requirements (specifically margin requirements) leaves a finite amount of space available on the page.

I used the Quitclaim form. The form was easy to complete without using the example or guide. $21 was a fair price compared to paying a lawyer.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I am a retired attorney. I chanced upon this website while looking for a Florida Lady Bird Deed Form. It conforms to Florida Law and was exactly what I needed. The forms are easy to obtain and even easier to use and print out.
Thank you so much Sandra, we really appreciate your feedback.
