This was super easy to use, especially if you remember to look for a downloaded PDF file, not a Word file. Found the files right away after the light bulb went on! Thank you!!

Straightforward and pretty easy to use. The only downside is that there is no way to contact them directly. The number on the website is answered only by a voicemail with no return calls. Pricing seems fair compared to other services and much more efficient that filing "over the counter."
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
