Great experience. Easy to use, it walks you right thru the process. I would recommend this to anyone with documents needed quickly and professionally.

Jan 31, 2026

Initially signed up on a trial basis to complete an initial LLC Operating Agreement. Completing the document was easy and looks great. I will absolutely be using this site in the future.

Jan 27, 2026

Needed Durable Power of Attorney for my parents. Site provided State specific form and clearly noted where I was to personalize the form. Tremendous resource. Very helpful. Recommend without reservation.

Sep 28, 2025

This was really helpful for making a quick rental agreement! LT made the process much easier, and much more affordable, than other template companies.

Oct 31, 2025

Form was not suitable but I could have edited. Sadly it is very difficult to edit so I gave up. Wanted a better quality go-by but I'll do my own. Thanks anyway.

Apr 13, 2026

Was able to create a meaningful will and bless my family with the gift of less decision making when I'm gone in less than a couple hours. Thank you LegalTemplates!

Apr 16, 2026

Great app for creating Leases or any other documents. They think of everything you could need to be in the document. And yes the free trial is really free!

Aug 25, 2025

This was used as a trial to understand what type of legal consulting agreement would look like - but found it to be too legally detailed for my need. Cancelled subscription but will keep note of this site if future needs for such detail is ever needed.

Apr 17, 2026

This is the best site for a document that you need quick and easy! No hassle with extra ads or emails. In my time of crisis this has been a god send! Thank you LegalTemplates!

Apr 1, 2026

I was in an emergency and needed to draw up a promissory note same day. I did not know how and legal templates literally saved me from missing a small window of opportunity whereby restitution for damages was being settled. I had the promissory note done within 10 minutes and was able to make my appointment with a public notary to secure $40,000.00 that was owed to me. Thank God I found this site! Thank you very much. Kind regards, Austin L. In Los Angeles

May 27, 2026

The legal templates were easy to create and edit. They look professional as well! I will be returning in the future for other documents that I may need.

Feb 24, 2026

I was having difficulty creating a Child Travel Consent Form. However, this website made it so much easier for me. It was very easy, and convenient. Thank you!

Feb 5, 2026

Provides good looking end product but coupled with unstable net connection, was a misery to use. Even free 7 day trial required credit card info. Was unnecessarily cumbersome to cancel though managed to eventually

Feb 5, 2026

I love the walk-through approach to creating documents. I used it primarily for an LLC, and it was easy and smooth. The pricing is reasonable, though I imagine the periodic charges might add up over time, even those amounts are quite reasonable. I did not need any support, and worked through the creation of my main document with a friend/partner. We were able to answer all the questions, and ended up with a simple, straightforward, useable document. In sum, a very positive experience.

Apr 15, 2026

Thank you for your service, but after I used the form, I had to use the actual form from Dallas County Courts which is 10 pages with a 6 page checklist. Yours was much easier and planned out perfect for a guy who's not the best with computers. Thanks, Andy

Jun 23, 2026

I had to write a demand letter for payment of a loan from 3 yrs ago. Nice looking professional letter to hopefully get paid back or sue them in small claims court

Apr 29, 2026

I filled out my entire document just to find out that this is a paid only service. It's not even a good one either. Trying to place text where you need is extremely difficult when you have the page at its true scale. But if you zoom in, trying to move the box of text throws the page around all over the place. Making it extremely difficult to make your documents look neat. The signature option doesn't seem to work. I had to zoom in and just "draw" onto the document. I'm sure there are better options out there. I neglected to look into it beforehand, which is my bad.

Feb 13, 2026

This company charged my card without my authorization after I canceled the 7‑day trial. I never subscribed, yet they billed me four days later and refused to refund me. Customer service is terrible—just scripted replies, no real help, and no accountability. This feels deceptive and unprofessional. I would advise others to be very cautious.

Feb 24, 2026

Product was good, site was easy to use. The monthly fee is astronomical compared to what you actually receive and how often an average person would use it in my opinion.

Jul 5, 2026

I needed a new Warranty Deed and the template made it very easy to create one myself. The completed and signed document was immediately accepted by the County Clerks Office. I would highly recommend LegalTemplates for anyone looking to save money when getting legal documents drawn up.

Nov 14, 2025

It was missing some key information that was necessary in order to be processed in Massachusetts. For example, it missed certain key words or if you were going to give up your homestead rights. In addition, you're supposed to state precisely where the deed is located/registered in your county, and this template did not ask for it. Huge miss.

Dec 18, 2025

Writing a rental agreement seemed like a challenge but legaltemplates made it easy to do I just wrote down the specifics they did the rest. It was done and ready to be signed fast. I will come here for all my legal templates and I highly recommend you do too.

May 14, 2026

We needed to create a quit claim deed quickly and accurately. Legal Templates had exactly what was needed. The document took very little time to put together and saved us hundreds in legal fees to have a lawyer do it. Would highly recommend.

Jan 23, 2026

LegalTemplates was instrumental in helping me quickly and easily craft the exact contractual documents I needed to facilitate the purchase of property. Its step-by-step process tailored to the exact locality covered everything I needed, saving me headaches and considerable time and expenses it would have cost had I used a legal professional. The five stars is totally earned.

Aug 17, 2025

I needed a legal document and signed up for the seven-day free trial. While many companies make it difficult to cancel your free subscription, LegalTemplates made it very easy to cancel. I not only recommend them, but will use them again myself when the need arises.

Feb 9, 2026

Needed to create a contract and did within minutes and it was free. Would definitely subscribe to monthly use if I had the need to make multiple documents over time.

Sep 25, 2025

I needed a bill of sale and LegalTemplates had exactly what I needed in an easy to use format. I feel confident that the template complies with my state's laws.

Dec 5, 2025

I have a health condition; I needed some documents fast. After searching through the many options, legaltemplates stood out. I went ahead and bought the week offer. Dang, everything I needed was right there, Easy to navigate and I was able to get everything I needed. I had been warned by friend about some other pages, so I was hesitant. This site erased my apprehension. I highly recommend legaltemplates if your needing a document, its a five star experience I had.

Jul 20, 2026

I recently used Legaltemplates to draft a residential lease for my rental property in Virginia, and I was extremely impressed. The platform is intuitive, fast, and offers state-specific clause that gave me confidence the lease was legally sound.

Mar 24, 2026

LegalTemplates is an incredible platform that's very easy to use. The process is straightforward, user-friendly, and makes creating legal documents quick and stress-free. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a simple and efficient solution!

Aug 15, 2025

I had an amazing experience. It seemed simple to use; all you had to do was fill in the blanks, and within minutes, you had a polished template. This website gave me just what I needed. Strongly advised.

Feb 23, 2026

I have used this to handle some critical PDF-related tasks, and it was a total lifesaver. The platform is incredibly intuitive, making it easy to create, download, and print professional documents in minutes. Here's why I'd recommend it: Effortless PDF Editing: Their PDF Editor made it simple to convert and edit files in one workspace without needing extra software. Professional Quality: The documents are drafted by licensed attorneys, so they felt reliable and legally sound for my specific needs. User-Friendly Interface: I didn't have to spend hours researching how to draft a contract; the step-by-step guidance turned my answers into a ready-to-use form instantly. It's a fantastic resource for anyone needing to manage legal paperwork quickly and professionally."

Nov 2, 2025

LegalTemplates is easy to use. All steps of the process were easy to understand and included explanations of each step. I was worried about giving my credit card information but I was not charged to set up an account and it was easy and simple to close my account. Don't waste $50 or more on other websites or templates found in stores. This is really no cost, no fuss and no worries.

Dec 19, 2025

Couldn't have been more easy. Walked me through exactly what I needed with nothing extra that I didn't need which would've cost extra time! This is a go-to service!

Jun 18, 2026

The website is easy to navigate. Plenty of titles to choose from. Unfortunately, what I require is very specific and the trial document I selected required too much editing. I am sure this site is excellent for others with generalized needs.

May 19, 2026

The form was easy to fill out. It did not have all the options I needed, so I still had to write in a couple of clauses myself. Maybe there should be a space for that on the form: special provisions.

Apr 29, 2026

Looks like it's free until after all the work filling in the form until time to print and credit card needed even for the zero trial. Later found out different counties require different forms and the one I got was wrong.

Feb 28, 2026

Excellent will definitely come back for membership when I start working and open my little business God willing. Better than a lawyer and any other website that I was trying to get for the POA. Will definitely would recommend to friends.

Jan 26, 2026

I signed up for the 7-day free trial with LegalTemplates.net to access some legal forms. I canceled the service on the eighth day, just one day after the trial ended, because I no longer needed it. Despite canceling promptly, they still charged me $49.95 for the next billing period. I reached out immediately to request a refund or partial refund, explaining that I canceled only one day late and had not used the service at all beyond the trial period. I also explained that I never received any reminder that the trial was ending or that I would be charged. Many companies send a courtesy notice before charging, but LegalTemplates.net did not. Their response simply referenced their billing policy and refused any refund — even though the annual subscription is $119.88 (about $0.33 per day), making the $49.95 charge for a single day seem excessive and unfair. Pros: Wide selection of templates available during trial Cons: 1. No reminder before charging at the end of trial 2. No goodwill refund even when cancellation was just one day late 3. $49.95 charge feels disproportionate Overall, I expected better customer service and fairness. I would not recommend relying on the free trial without strict reminders — and I was disappointed that they would not make an exception for a very minimal post-trial period.

Jun 22, 2026

Great experience with LegalTemplates. The process of creating a document that is solid legally for your state is easy and streamlined. Just answer a few simple questions and Legal Templates creates the document tailored to your situation and needs. The free trial was so helpful. Thank you.

Oct 20, 2025

Pleasantly surprised the ease of use for this service. There are many templates to search through, and two options when building your template- a wizard, so it prints already filled out for you, or a blank template, that you fill out yourself. And options for what format you want to download them. I recommend it.

Sep 22, 2025

Great platform. Very easy to use Very easy to cancel or change your subscription. Really liked the opportunity to try free. Originally tried using an attorney for a simple financial POA, but they said it would take 2 weeks and didn't give a cost estimate. Was able to create exactly what I needed on LegalTemplate in about 10 minutes.

Aug 22, 2025

Before I retired I had used several companies over the years to provide legal documents. I just used Legal Templates and it was the best experience of all. Excellent rental lease template that was easy to fill and edit. Unlike some companies' products, I was able to add or delete verbage unique to my situation. Since I only needed one document and anticipate not needing any more for the rest of the year I used their free one week trial subscription and then cancelled. It was straight forward with no hassle. I just wish they had an option where one could pay by document. Thank you.

May 12, 2026

1) was able to edit individual sections, but format was hard to work with compared to google docs. 2) form could use better details, there were a bunch of missing points and data sections in the form

Dec 31, 2025

I quickly needed a Bill of Sale for a motor home. It took me less than 5 minutes to create and made it so much easier with no mistakes to correct thanks to being able to edit.

Aug 28, 2025

When trying to edit my legal template for more detailed information the text editor performed terribly by failing to load edits, wouldn't save edits after I clicked save, ruined formatting with random spaces between lines. It was a mess and test of patience trying to add my own edits onto the document. Please fix this issue or inform people of this before trying to charge them for you service

Apr 4, 2026

Very easy to navigate. Basically a fill in the blanks template. We used the traveling with a minor/medical consent form. Thoroughly written paperwork including area for notarization if needed. We really liked it.

Mar 30, 2026

Used the 7 day free trial. They dont trick you into paying for your download like other websites and they let me create and download multiple documents. The templates were easy to use and edit. If i need to create any documents in the future I will definitely be using this website.

May 28, 2026

I have used Legal Templates twice and it is MUCH cheaper than paying a legal team to draft these documents. I will likely use them again in the future. Access to all of these forms, and there are lots, is worth much more than the subscription price. Highly recommended!

Jan 13, 2026

The creation of the document that I needed was easy and straight forward. The lease created looked to be complete, but I would recommend that others having the completed document reviewed by a lawyer or someone experienced with leased. My use does not require the added time or expense. I recommend that users having a need for templates give the product a try.

SCAM
March 16, 2017

SCAM... Be warned. I called to cancel they said no problem, 7 months later I am still getting charged $39.95 month for a service I never used. When I told them I cancel 7 months ago they said: "Prove it", they are criminals.

Legal Templates was very useful, I'm glad to have found a page that fulfilled my requirements. I love how it is FREE to download unlimited templates during the 14 days. You can tell your friends and family about this great page which should be the first choice when searching for legal forms.

VERY PROFESSIONAL
February 14, 2017

I am very satisfied with Legal Templates because I needed a cohabitation agreement in order to justify the relationship between my boyfriend and me to a lawyer for a legal procedure, thus for that reason I found that the template was very useful, seriously it was very proper to my needs, I just filled in the blanks and quickly created a professional agreement which was well received by the lawyer. It was an extraordinary experience.

My Mom used one of the templates for a loan agreement and indeed that template was really good according to that situation, for that purpose I think it is really worth it totally recommended.

Another Scam Company Stealing Your Money
October 27, 2016

Don't give them your credit card info. It's another scam owned by the same guy Howard Chai that owns Resume Genius. Both of them trick you into getting free or cheap documents, then charge your credit card for monthly fees, even when you cancel. Good luck trying to get your money back. STAY AWAY!

0 forgiveness policy. Very rigid and bullish
February 16, 2016

I had originally signed up for a 2 week trial of this website to peruse some contracts I thought I needed for my business.

I never used the site, because they didn't have what I needed.

I set a reminder to cancel the membership two weeks later so I didn't get charged the recurring fee. One would think they would have until the end of the day to cancel, but NO! BE WARNED... they have everything down to the minute.

This should be called a 20,160 minute trial, because, at minute 20,161, you're getting charged, whether you like it or not.

I contacted customer support since it was(I thought) within the 14 day time frame to cancel and was basically met with a cookie cutter, pad answer. Apparently, regardless of the situation or circumstances, once you go past that 20,160th minute, you're paying, and their cancellation or return policy is very strict and legal.

There are plenty of other avenues one can use to get legal advice or documents that don't involve POOR customer service. It's quite predatory, actually.
