Beware
March 6, 2023

Nothing is truly free on this site except a line of bull. They want your credit card number for most transactions. Seems predatory to me and blatantly dishonest. It is a matter of semantics and while technically they can claim that certain services are "free", its still a hustle. Not the kind of folks I would be comfortable working with. Check out their BBB rating, abysmal.

Website boldly states that it is free, but in order to be free you must first subscibe to their services entering card details, and then you must cancal before the 1 week free trial ends. ONLY then wil it be free. Yes its still free - so technically correct. But not what is advertised 'Completely Free'!

Hello Tom,

We have been a leading publisher of do-it-yourself legal documents and templates since 2002. Our customers have created over four million contracts and saved considerable legal fees. Our form templates and software are drafted and revised by our in-house legal department. Please note that the documents are generated based on the answers you enter. Ensure you accurately complete all the necessary fields. Once completed, it is a legal document. The answers you select and how you edit the document can affect whether the form is legally enforceable and valid. If you are unsure how to complete the answers or edit the document to fit your fact situation, you should consider contacting a local attorney in your jurisdiction to assist you. Customers are responsible for special requirements in their jurisdiction.

We appreciate your honest review and thank you for using LawDepot.

Regards,

Divine

Total ripoff!
February 16, 2023

I signed up for their "free trial" to do one sample form. When I checked my credit card statement I had been charged $44.07! After I contacted them they said I had agreed to pay when the "free trial" ended. I said I had never received any notice of any charges but they insisted they had sent out emails. Probably in my junk mail. They refused to refund the charge I did not agree to. I am a struggling pensioner so this is food money but they don't care.

Scammers! They charged me £329.89 charging me every month without informing me or proving any receipt after a free trial for a simple document!

Would not refund me even when it was clear I had NEVER used it other than to download the one free document.

I did cancel the subscription also, only found out when doing my accounts.

Check Trustpolet, have 80 reviews with 80% of them giving them 1 star!

December 23, 2022

Law Depot gives you the run around to cancel, they push it out by ignoring your email requests, until the 7 day refund is no longer available. They then tell you it is not based on 'USAGE" even though you havent used it then refuse to issue the refund.

There are plenty of other companies who are honorable DO NOT USE THIS ONE

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. Looking at your records, you have used our site for quite some time. You have always signed up for the Free Trial subscription for one week. As you already know, the Free Trial for one week automatically renews to a monthly fee of $35.00 after the Free Trial expires. Based on the number of times you signed up for the Free Trial and failed to cancel twice within the 7 days, we have granted you courtesy refunds from the past. Unfortunately, since this has already been the 3rd time you demanded a refund for a Free Trial that exceeded the 7 days, we can no longer grant you that. LawDepot has no obligation to refund a Free Trial turned into a paid service.

We appreciate you visiting our site.

Regards,

Divine

Lack personal customer service
December 8, 2022

The customer service is not personal. They make you feel like you are just a number. You make enquiries about your pending incorporation and they just answer with a single word and close the chat. No feedback and if you ask for one, they make you feel like you are bothering them. I wouldn't use them or recommend them to anyone. They make you feel like they are helping you rather than offering you a paid service. I am disappointed.

Terrible Customer Service
November 30, 2022

Used law depot as a trial however after I cancelled I continued to get billed for 6 months. When I called in get a refund they said there was nothing they could do and there is no one to speak with. Terrible customer service.

Hello Kelly,

I am sorry to hear about your bad experience. According to our records, you canceled your monthly subscription on Oct 31,2022, at 01:17 PM ET, four months after your initial sign-up. To clarify, the Free Trial is only for seven days and will continue to a monthly subscription with a fee of $39.00+ tax if not canceled within the Free Trial week. We posted the information twice on the site and sent you an email after you signed up for the service. Another email was sent to you when your Free trial for one week expired, and your subscription was renewed to the monthly service. Charges were also posted on your bank statement. All these details were provided to you so you would have an informed decision about your chosen subscription.

A courtesy refund of $39.00+ tax has been approved and will post back to your account in 5 business days. Please check your email for the refund confirmation. No other refunds will be provided. We appreciate your feedback and thank you for using LawDepot.

Divine

Awful business
November 26, 2022

Please don't try canceling with the "having trouble signing in? Cancel without signing into account." Lawdepot will say there's no such thing & will still charge you. Customer service was very rude.
The documents was useless, two lawyers & a notary wouldn't use them.
Lawyers & Notary use their own forms. This company is a get over!

Hello Hallet,

I am sorry to hear about your bad experience.

There are multiple ways of cancelling your subscription. You can call, email or chat with Customer Service to cancel your subscription. You can also cancel online by Signing In into your account or provide more information for the site to cancel without you Signing In. If by any chance, you have entered an incorrect information, the site will not be able to locate your account. That may be the reason why you are saying that it's not working.

Our records do not show of any cancellation of your subscription prior to October 27,2022, 03:59 PM ET which is 6 months after your initial sign up. We have provided a maximum 6 months of refund for $35.00 per month. We sent you an email confirmation of the refunds. Please check your inbox or spam folder.

We appreciate the feedback and thank you for using LawDepot.

Divine

Higher chances for overcharging and no refunds. They charged me $45. When called the customer services. Tabitha and manager Cynthia the customer services blamed me saying I am a fool who is not keeping tracks of my account.
While logging in they say will tell you before charging you which purposefully makes you ignore the messages and details which is send to you in the beginning so that they can charge you saying it was clearly noted on the logging page or the email. SO GUYS BE AWARE. Read all the small letter texts and agreements and conditions even if it is so small.

I initially went to this web site to access legal forms the 21st of March, 2022. You have to sign up to look at their products. I determined that I didn't want the service and cancelled during the free period. The next month I saw that they had charged me anyway. I went online and cancelled AGAIN. They have continued to charge me every month. They will NOT answer the listed phone number. I have a dispute through my credit card company. BE VERY CAREFUL DEALING WITH THIS COMPANY!

Hello Deborah,

I am sorry for your confusion regarding the details of your order. You initially signed up for a 7-day Free Trial subscription which is only FREE for 7 DAYS. The website also states that it automatically renews for a monthly fee of $35.00 after the Free Trial for one week expires. This information was posted twice before you clicked “submit order.” Your receipt shows the data, including the exact renewal date and time of your subscription and the process to cancel if you do not want to go on with the service. All these details were provided to you so you would have an informed decision about your purchase. Charges were also showing on your bank statement monthly. The only cancellation we see on your file was on October 17,2022, at 12:52 PM ET, seven months after your Free Trial for one week was renewed to a monthly subscription. Customer Service is open Monday to Friday from 8 am-7 pm ET. If you want to speak to a live representative, dial the toll-free number 1-855-231-8424.

We appreciate your feedback and thank you for visiting our site.

Hello Shine,

To clarify, we are LawDepot and not Lodepot. Here are the three different licensing options to refresh your memory:

One Year Pro: $95.88. Create and print as many documents as you need for an entire year.

Basic: $7.50 - $50 per document, depending on the record. Provides complete access for a specific amount of time—this option self-expires.

Free 7-day Trial: Free access to all documents for one week. $39 per month plus GST after that. No commitment - cancel online at any time. Once you have an account, type Cancel in the search box, and we will provide the link to cancel your account.

These details were displayed to you before you selected one of the three options. A confirmation email detailing your purchase from LawDepot was immediately sent to your inbox or spam folder. All of these details were provided, so you have a clear and informed decision about your purchase.

I am sorry if you misunderstood the pricing for our LawDepot Subscriptions. We appreciate your feedback, and thank you for visiting our site.

Free trial scam
July 19, 2022

Give you fake results once done 45 minute quiz, then proceed to hold the answers to your questions hostage until you fork over payment information.

Date of experience: July 19, 2022

Hello None,

The time you spend on the questionnaire would depend on how fast you can answer the questions provided to create your document. The average time to complete a questionnaire is usually 10-15 minutes. I am sorry if you misunderstood the Free Trial for 1 week offer. For uninterrupted access to your document, a valid credit card information is required when you sign up for a subscription. If you cancel before the trial period is over, your credit card will not be charged.

We appreciate your feedback. Thank you for visiting our site.

Divine
