Affidavit Form
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
AFFIDAVIT I, XXX certify that I have read the foregoing document and that to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief formed after reasonable inquiry it is well grounded in fact and is warranted by existing law or a good faith argument for the extension, modification, or reversal of existing law and that it is not interposed for any improper purpose, such as to harass or to cause unnecessary delay or a needless increase in the cost of litigation. All facts plead therein are herein incorporated. ________________________________ [Respondent/Plaintiff/Defendant/etc.]

Legal Requirements & Accepted Customs Can and Do vary Greatly between (and even within) States and can Change Often. To Not Create More Problems than they Solve Most MUST be Properly Drafted and Modified to Fit Specific Venues and Circumstances!
