Start with the topic pages, such as Landlords, Employment or Plan your estate. Each one explains the situation and lists the documents people in it usually need. You can also search by everyday words, for example "rent" or "loan".

Yes. The All documents page lists every document from A to Z and can be filtered by category.

Each document page has a section explaining when to use it and lists related documents. For example, a lease amendment changes an existing lease, while a new lease replaces it.

Tell us through the contact page. We prioritize new templates based on requests. If your situation is unusual, a lawyer may be the better route.

Find the document using search or the category menus, then select Create document. Answer each section and select Save and continue to move forward.

We are still building the questionnaire for that document. Its page explains what it is, and related documents are available now.

We recommend changing your answers and downloading a new version instead, so the whole document stays consistent.

It depends on the document and your state. Deeds, affidavits and many powers of attorney require notarization; most contracts and leases do not. The document includes a notary section when one is typically needed.

Order usually does not matter for contracts. For wills, the testator and witnesses must follow the signing steps described in the document.

Yes. Give each party a signed copy and keep your original somewhere safe.

Many documents can be signed electronically under federal and state law, but wills, deeds and notarized documents often have extra requirements. Our documents are print-ready PDFs: print and sign on paper, or check the rules for your document before signing it another way.

Most agreements are simply kept by the parties. Some documents, such as deeds and articles of organization or incorporation, must be filed or recorded with a county or state office. The document's signing instructions say when that applies.

Usually the state where the property is located, where the work is performed or where you live. For contracts between parties in different states, choose the state whose law you want to govern the agreement and that you can both accept.

State-specific documents use that state's law as the governing law, adjust the signing section (witnesses or notary) and add wording that defers to state requirements where rules vary, such as deposit limits or notice periods.

Contracts usually remain valid. Estate planning documents such as wills and powers of attorney are generally recognized across states, but it is sensible to review them after a move, since signing rules and terminology differ.

The estate planning dashboard shows which essentials you have completed, which are in progress and what to consider next, based on the answers saved in your browser.

Not yet. A will must be signed with the formalities your state requires, which usually means two adult witnesses and, for a self-proving affidavit, a notary. Follow the signing instructions included with the document.

Somewhere safe that your executor can access, such as a fireproof home safe or with your attorney. Some states also let you deposit a will with the probate court. Tell your executor where it is.

Your questionnaire answers are saved in your own browser. They are sent to our servers only when you preview or download a document, to generate the PDF.
