Gone were the days when preparing legal forms was totally a hassle. Using a manual typewriter in preparing multiple copies the document is really tasking. You need a carbon paper and a correction fluid always ready every time you have to prepare for a legal document. If you are preparing the document for a client, it is either you will ask them to come back for the documents, but what if the client came from a distant place from the law office, they may prefer to wait for the document to be finished rather than come back for it?
Preparation of legal forms was then made a bit easier when electronic and electric typewriters came out and was later followed by a photocopying machine. But can you imagine if on those days, you are preparing a legal form and then there was a typographical error? Really burdensome, cause you need to make correction, on each and every page and at times becomes untidy because of the carbon paper accidentally got in contact with the still wet correction fluid? If at all the legal forms you are preparing, does not look presentable anymore, you will have no choice but to start typing all over again in a new set of bond papers, but still cannot assure that there will be no more mistakes.
When computers were introduced, preparation of legal forms became much easier. When you need to execute a legal document, you just go over, see a lawyer, just explain your purpose and the lawyer will handle everything and of course it goes with the certain amount of fees for the assistance and the preparation of the document you needed. After the documents have been prepared, you need to affix your signature and again a notary public will be in charge of notarization of your documents. In some cases, not all law offices can notarize documents. If that is the case you need to bring your documents to an authorized notary public to have it notarized.
