The downloads were a great help in understanding of both what a Warranty Deed was and how to follow the steps as well as filling out the forms.

Easy to use and comprehensive in content. Would recommend to anyone that is looking for a cheaper alternative to a lawyer. (They hate services that cut into their business)

A better or more simplified explanation of what some of the more common titles would be used for would help. You list 6-8 types of Trusts alone. An example of doing a Grant Deed to move a property into, out of, or from a Trust to a Trust would have been helpful.

The download files should have the name of the form included. The present numeric soup is frustrating to navigate.

For starters, enrolling was as easy as could be. Then, it only took minutes before my entry was formatted and filed. Finally, when I asked a question, I got an answer within a few minutes. Couldn't be happier with service

Awesome! Quick service and well worth the very minimal fee for the convenience of being able to quickly record my mothers will without having to leave the house. Also, our court is currently closed due to Covid. So happy to have found Deeds.com
