5 stars. Licensed to practice law for 25 years in multiple jurisdictions, the most dreaded part of doing what you already know how to do is researching again to make sure the legislatures have not changed the rules while you were doing something else. 22 bucks for this package is one hell of a deal and a real timesaver. Many thanks.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The form was very easy to use and the sample tool you had was very helpful. the only problem i had was saving the document and then trying to find it later. I finally was able to figure out how to save it. but i still cannot find the saved document on my computer. Luckily i printed it before i closed it and did not need to make any changes.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
