I had a great experience using Deeds.com to file my legal document. The whole process was simple and easy to follow. The website walks you through each step, and everything is explained clearly. At one point, I had to resubmit my documents, but even that was quick and easy. There were clear instructions, and I had no trouble making the changes and sending them again. The communication was great too. I was kept updated the whole time, and any questions I had were answered fast. If you need to file legal documents and want a stress-free way to do it, I definitely recommend Deeds.com. They made the whole process smooth from start to finish.
Thank you, Liliana! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We're glad everything went smoothly and that our team could support you when needed. It means a lot to know you'd recommend us!

The process was easy and cost was reasonable. My only suggestion is to allow user the ability to shorten the space between the county and state and the space after the month. I needed to draw a line at the courthouse before they would file it.
Your feedback is valuable to us and helps us improve. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

Document was well formatted with the extra help of an example and useful instructions. I ended up with a better warranty deed than I was getting on another website. Worth the small price.

The form was straight forward and very easy to complete. It took me less than 15 minutes to complete. Make sure you have the "current deed' available' when completing the form.
Thank you for your feedback Barry. Have a fantastic day!

Nice forms but it sure would have been nice to be able to at least print the guide and the example so that I don't spend all of my time bouncing back and forth between windows on a laptop.

This would be a great form but I couldn’t tell what size the font was. Also, I didn’t know how to save it so I will have to type it all over again. I’m sure I did it incorrectly.
Your feedback is a crucial part of our dedication to ongoing improvement. Thank you for your insightful comments.
