The writing of public instruments, private contracts or agreements, registration and licensing requirements, notary services, personal legal documentation, and many other services fall under this area.
Many turn to buying these “services” from internet legal vendors in an effort to avoid paying legal bills. Contracts and agreements are created using templates, which the parties must complete by filling up their personal information. Many people have found this to be alluring, with savings being their first priority. Consequences, however, only become apparent much later when negative outcomes materialize and unforeseen twists emerge. In the end, the parties are forced to repeat what has already been done or engage in a contentious legal dispute. Naturally, this results in additional costs that could have been avoided from the start.
In the creation, negotiation, and application of these instruments, legal counsel is essential. Before any actions are taken or signatures are put on a document, attorneys are prepared to walk clients through their rights and protections. You should anticipate that attorneys will also go over all potential legal repercussions of a certain action with you. Essentially, decisions are made with better knowledge when an attorney is properly consulted.
