    Additional business information

    Additional Info:
    LawDepot TM is an online legal form site through which consumers are able to purchase customized legal documents. Consumers are advised to read and understand all of the information provided on the company website prior to becoming involved with the process. The process for creating forms through LawDepot TM is quite simple, however these forms are not a substitute for legal advice.
    Of the complaints processed by the BBB since opening its file on LawDepot TM, nearly all of the disputes result from misunderstandings concerning the site's access to forms that could have been avoided if the purchasers had read and understood the licence types and pricing policies. The BBB urges consumers to read and understand all of the site's policies before selecting a licence or creating forms.
    Law Depot offers licence types, each of which has a different cost, and access limit. Many consumers select the Trial Subscription, which is offered for free for one week. This trial must be cancelled within the free week in order to avoid monthly subscription charges. Complaints filed with BBB show that consumers neglect to cancel during the trial period, and are unhappy when they notice the charges on their credit card.

    Answered
    2018-2024 I signed up for a free trial, canceled before the trial period ended, and JUST TODAY noticed that I have been charged $33/month with no communication from the company until I requested to reset my password. I have not received monthly receipts (EVER). I just happened to notice on my banking statement (yes, I should have noticed a long time ago, but I didn't). I am appalled that a receipt was not sent to me at least each month. I would certainly have noticed that the trial/subscription was not canceled.

    We must have signed up for a free trial a year ago, as we needed one document. A year later of course we didn't remember that if we didn't stop it we would automatically be charged for a renewal subscription. Turns out that sneaky automatic renewal is non-refundable. There was no correspondence leading up to the renewal period - I just saw the charge on my credit card bill.What a scam. Buyer beware - this is not a company you want to do business with. I wish we had read reviews a year ago.

    Dear *****,Thank you for your message, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.Upon my review, you signed up for our 7-day Free Trial Subscription on Dec 1, 2023. Since no cancellation was on file within the trial period, a monthly subscription began.We want to assure you that we provided trial and renewal information both on our website and through email confirmations sent to you.We can confirm that we sent two emails to you pertaining to your order and membership details. The first email was dispatched on the trial start day, Dec 1, 2023. This email contains information about your trial period and details about the renewal process.The second email was sent on Dec 9, 2023, specifically concerning your membership. We understand the importance of these communications and have taken measures to ensure that all necessary information was provided to you.According to our refund policy, LawDepot is not obligated to refund charges for free trials that have been properly converted to paid product access. Therefore, we are unable to provide a refund to you.For more detailed information about our refund policy, please refer to our Terms of Use at this link: (************************************************).Your subscription has been canceled and no further charges will apply. Please check your emails for confirmation.Should you have any more questions or require further assistance, please feel free to contact us. We are here to support you.Regards,Cally
