What Is a Document Preparation Service?
A document preparation service – often called a “doc prep service” – assists clients in completing a wide range of legal forms and paperwork. A document preparer must register with the proper jurisdiction in which they conduct business. Our document preparers have received a certificate of registration from the Secretary of State of Nevada. At Estate Document Solutions, we are not lawyers and do not provide legal advice. Instead, we focus on accurately preparing documents based on your needs and the information you provide. Our role is similar to that of a highly skilled assistant who knows how to navigate official forms, ensure they are completed correctly, and prevent any details from being overlooked.
What Does a Document Preparation Service Do for Its Clients?
In today’s complex legal and bureaucratic world, filling out and filing the correct paperwork can feel like a daunting, time-consuming task. That’s where we step in. We provide services to help individuals and small businesses manage legal and administrative documents efficiently—without the hefty price tag of hiring an attorney. Additionally, we ensure the proper forms are notarized and, in many cases, take them to the appropriate jurisdiction for recording.
Document preparation companies vary in the services they offer and the types of documents they help prepare. Below are some of the key documents we help prepare:
- Estate Planning Documents (Wills, Powers of Attorney, Trusts)
- Business Documents (Limited Liability Company formation, corporate formation, etc.)
- Real Estate and Property (Deeds, Homesteads, Lease Agreements)
The services our document preparation service provides allows for a cost effective solution for individuals, small business owners, and landlords. We offer clear instructions and guidance, guaranteed accuracy, and peace of mind for people who don’t know where to start or worry about making a mistake. While document preparation services are beneficial and affordable, they cannot provide legal advice or representation. In the event the client has a complex situation or is involved in some litigation, they should consult with a licensed attorney for legal advice. At Estate Document Solutions, we are careful to stay within the boundaries of the law. If the client needs to consult an attorney, we can refer them to reputable attorneys.
