Legal Document Preparer

A legal document preparer is a professional who assists individuals and entities in preparing legal documents without the supervision of an attorney.

What is a Document Preparer?

"Beginning July 1, 2003, the Arizona Supreme Court has had the Arizona Certified Legal Document Preparer Program. The Program certifies non-attorney legal document preparers in Arizona who provide document preparation assistance and services to individuals and entities not represented by an attorney. Legal document preparers may provide general legal information but may not give legal advice. It allows the general public to get this important work done at a less expensive price, in a more approachable environment.

"No one is promised tomorrow...

You are taking the first steps to get this process under way. Many individuals, families and business owners procrastinate this very important area of planning. We are humans and have the gift of optimism....Floating down the River of Denial. The common thing we hear when someone speaks with us is "I know we need this done"...and when it's complete, "I feel so much better". None of us are promised tomorrow. You will be surprised how easy the process is after it's complete. Most of our customers are pleasantly surprised that the cost are much lower than they imagined. Don't let the perceived high cost or lack of time get in your way of planning. I assure you that not planning cost much more time and money than just getting it done."

Notes

What are the Roles of Legal Document Preparers in Arizona?

"Legal document preparers in Arizona offer several services to individuals or entities who are engaged in a legal matter while representing themselves in a court of law. However, it is important to understand that AZCLDPs are neither attorneys nor lawyers, and they do not employ attorneys to work for them. AZCLDPs are barred from giving legal opinions, advice, or warrants when it comes to the outcome of a case, but communication with the preparers is still highly confidential, just like any other legal matter.

AZCLDPS practitioners can only offer facts and information regarding legal procedures and the rights entitled to a person or a group. Legal Document Preparers in Arizona are not allowed to make judgments or give their insights. They may just inform on statutes regarding an issue in question."
