Exercise Extreme Caution when using many of our free forms - or any legal material. While they may provide general ideas on format & content, validity requirements can and do vary greatly from state to state. Many MUST be Properly Modified for your own location and circumstances. (Hint: If in doubt it's usually safer to include unneeded clauses than to leave out necessary ones. . . . but it's even safer to consult a competent source or use current, state specific ones like ours mentioned below.) Also, we urge people (and lawyers too) to read our Relying On Legal Info FAQ. |
We strongly suggest that you use State Specific (forms drafted for your State). U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. maintains a staff of attorneys who draft and update Forms for each State. So, visit U.S. Legal Forms for State Specific Wills, Living Wills, Power of Attorney, Real Estate, Landlord Tenant, Corporate, Affidavits, Releases and Other Forms and download your form in Word format.
