Our legal document preparation services are always based on a flat charge. This policy allows our clients complete control over their legal costs. Flat fees also encourage expedient completion of the legal process. Our FLAT FEES include FREE unlimited communication with the office by email. We understand clients will have questions, so our goal is to quickly respond to all emails, even those left after hours or on the weekend. The best part about using our services is clients will never need to worry about getting a big bill after their legal document preparation services have been completed!

Pricing for many of our services can be found on our website. Fees quoted on our website are for document preparation only and do not include any filing fees or other third-party costs. Please call us if you have questions or need further information.

California law requires that every customer execute a mandated Contract for Services established by the California Department of Consumer Affairs before accepting payment or performing any services by our office. In order to keep our fees low, A People’s Choice requires payment in full when we are hired. We do not invoice for services nor do we offer any payment plans. Small discounts are offered if you “check in” through various Social Media venues.

Despite that we are primarily a legal document preparation service, our services encompass far more than just preparing legal paperwork.

Many online services that provide California legal document services require the customer to process the legal paperwork with the court or other applicable agency. We have found this to be a very daunting and confusing task for our customers. First, most legal proceedings are multi-step processes, requiring various documents to be filed at various times. Often the multi-step processing of the legal paperwork can be as complicated as preparing the paperwork itself. As a convenience to our clients, A People’s Choice will process all paperwork our office prepares with the appropriate court or agency for processing. We will also schedule any necessary hearings and community with you as needed to make sure your case is proceeding in a timely and proper way. Do not be fooled by the many companies found on the internet that merely prepare documents and send people off on their own with confusing guidelines. Our office helps clients from beginning to end, from filing the first document to filing the last document in the case. If clients require legal help beyond what California law allows us to provide or need advice from an attorney, we can suggest or direct them to other sources of reasonably priced legal help.

Our Legal Document Services Always Include:

  • Flat-fee pricing for preparation of specific legal documents (no additional or hidden costs)
  • Blank court fee waiver forms for qualified people
  • Facilitating the processing/filing of all documents with appropriate court or agency
  • Unlimited communication via e-mail Coordination of third-party services (such as service of process, publication or other special procedures, if required)
  • Client copies of documents
  • Free legal guide about your legal matter.

A People’s Choice offers a free legal guide for most routine legal proceedings; however, such guides may not be available for every type of legal process.
