It is a difficult challenge -- trying to take the needless jargon out of legal transactions so ordinary citizens can manage their affairs. Deeds.com hasn't solved all the problems, but has made a super effort to help us achieve self-sufficiency.

Forms do not allow enough space for fields and cutoff. Need to expand the fields to allow for more writing. I ended up re-typing to be able to include full property description. Would be nice if available in Word format rather than only PDF format.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Awesome service! 4 services wouldn't handle a 1-time filing, but Deeds.com got the job done in less than 21 hours, for only $15 (plus filing fees). This saved me days of difficulty and aggravation, esp. during COVID-19 lockdown!
