Disappointed on most recent order. Format did not permit changing the "boilerplate" language to change "grantor" to "grantors". In so restricting, could not use pre-printed form to make a joint party conveyance.

Sorry to hear of your disappointment. We've canceled your order and payment for the warranty deed document. Have a wonderful day.

Easy to use and able to individualize, which was important since I needed to print more than one doc. I just wish I had an option for a less expensive purchase - seemed like a lot for just a couple docs.

We were referred to the site by banking friend. It does take time to read through and figure out what a person needs, form-wise, to accomplish the goal. Once that was decided, check out and the download was very easy. What a great savings in cost and time.

I needed to file an affidavit of succession. I downloaded the forms and filled in the blanks. The instructions and example sheet were very helpful. I got the paper recorded with the county today and all went smoothly. Good product.

Your beneficiary deed sample contains a error of the LDPS designation. I copied the designation of LPDS instead of the correct designation
