Excellent! I was worried because I saw some negative reviews online but I really needed an e-recording company and they completed everything perfectly. I will most definitely recommend them and use them again in the future. All the staff was super nice and very helpful.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Was looking for information and forms relating to a trust my parents created, but what I purchased seems geared toward trusts containing real estate only, which is not what I needed. Clearly I missed something prior to purchasing something I can not use. Perhaps additional clarification for us without any experience is this area would be helpful.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Perfectly easy, perfectly complete! I had no problems with downloading these forms. I have been a paralegal for 20 years and came up on a situation where I was not familiar with the forms. Deeds.com saved my life and allowed me to get the documents done and done right. I will keep deeds.com on my list of favorites!
Thank you Carole. Glad we could help. We appreciate you taking the time to leave your review.

It was outstanding, seriously, I had 3 e mail correspondences asking for information and providing feedback within 2 hours and was ready for submission at that point. I paid the invoice online and by the end of the day I had electronic verification that Registry of Deeds had processed my documents. That work is good stuff ! Pete
Glad we could be of assistance Peter, thank you for the kinds words. Have an amazing day!

If my availability does not coincide with your business hours it should not prevent me from uploading my documents and making payment. You should allow people to upload their documents at any time with the understanding that you will process them on your next business day.
Thank you!

After purchasing the Quit Claim Deed, I felt I had purchased something I could have gotten free somewhere else. But after reviewing all the other information Deed.com provided, I realized you saved me a lot of time that would have been wasted on research. Money well spent.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
