There was a time when you only had two choices to get your legal documents prepared in West Virginia:

• retain a full-service lawyer and pay considerable, up-front costs and high hourly fees, or
• purchase forms from a non-lawyer document preparation or legal forms company and pray that you are doing the right thing.
• Now, there is a third way.

We use the best components from the above two choices to provide you cost-effective and efficient, limited legal services regarding West Virginia law. "Limited legal services" means we provide only a limited scope of legal services as requested and purchased by you. Our relationship with you will not exceed the limited scope of the work we agree to perform on your behalf. We focus on preparing your legal documents and enabling you to file your documents yourself to keep your legal fees as low as possible. Our commitment to you is to provide you legal services at the lowest possible costs, without compromising the quality of our legal services. See Our Advantage.

As a law firm licensed to practice law in the state of West Virginia, we offer lawyer-reviewed wills and other asset protection documents specific to the state of West Virginia plus legal advice sufficient for you to utilize those forms. We also offer answers to general legal questions by phone or email. For a complete list of services we can perform for you, click here.

Remember: Only a law firm can give you legal advice.

A forms company cannot provide you with legal advice and adds very little for the fee they charge, such as making sure that you spell your name correctly! A non-lawyer document preparation company is no more than a high-priced "typing service" and is not permitted to change or modify the information you provide in any way.
