Document Preparation Services
The Law Offices of Charles D. Scott offers document preparation services assisting clients with the preparation of legal documents, forms and pleadings. There is an advantage of using a law firm for your document needs versus simply using a paralegal non lawyer type service. All of our documents, forms and pleadings have been drafted by lawyers. If you pay a non lawyer paralegal service for your document needs, you will receive standard forms, or fill in the blank forms. Paralegals are not allowed to create legal documents, and further are not allowed to give advice.
At The Law Offices of Charles D. Scott, we have been drafting and improving upon our library of legal documents and forms since 1997. As a result we can share with you a wealth of experience, and a competitive advantage over nonlawyer paralegal services.
FAMILY LAW DOCUMENTS
Often clients ask for direction on how to represent themselves in their family law case. The Law Offices of Charles D.
