I paid almost $200 to file a legal adult name change. Their website is very misleading!

All I received in the mail was the paper work to file for a name change with my local court house... something I could have very easily gone to the court house and printed myself, or even found online at home and printed myself! Not to mention the fee with my court house of another $285 to file the paperwork.

They do not actually file or do anything! They simply print and send you the paperwork to your matter at hand, and charge you a ridiculous amount for it. Wasted my time and money! Will never recommend this site.

UPDATE: PER THEIR RESPONSE:

I paid 99.95 for the "service" of sending me papers, plus shipping equalling just under $200. Why should I have to inquire further details from you, when after reading your website, your terms and conditions, and your about section, which all mislead me to believe you processed the paper work. Not just sent it to me to do it myself.

Then when I sent a complaining email, I received an email back holding my refund above my head to delete this review!

Tip for consumers:
Don't use it. Scam!!

Hi Allysssa,

Thank you for your review.

In a courteous response, you did not pay $200. You paid $99.95 which has been refunded in full.

Second, our website is not misleading at all. Name change filings are within the responsibility of the claimant and part of the process to prevent fraud, identity theft and within the civil process. As any legal filings, courts fees are part of the process unless a fee waiver is requested by the claimant. You are not paying us for just the forms. You are paying for the support and guidance we offer throughout the process. Compared to other firms, our prices are very affordable which does not justify the work commenced.

Our firm has been conducting this service since 2004; helping adults (cumbersome reasons, gay, lesbian, transgendered) and parents (minor name changes) with a complex process of providing completed petitions and guidance. A process that many require, always wanted and need, but simply cannot afford high attorney fees. We have help change thousands of lives nationwide to receive a review like this - after a full refund. As mentioned, it is not only the prepared forms that you have receive, there may be additional forms and support that you may require during the process. Your state/county may have a simple process, but other states and counties can be difficult.

A general inquire prior to your order would have answered majority of your questions about the process, saved us time, expense and prevented this review.

All individuals should conduct their diligence and consult with an attorney before engaging in any legal service. If additional assistance is needed, we will be here to help.
