It was very easy to set up the account but then everything is very costly. I didn't see any publications that were free to account holders, so as infrequently I have to do a title search, I may as well just hire an online service to do the legwork too.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I'm 84 and not all that smart when it comes to what a Lawyer usually helps you with, but I took a chance to see if I could do this. Walla, I was able to do it. I was helping my son who had a stroke a few years ago and the transaction went well. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback Jacqueline. We appreciate you.

The purchasing process was very slick and my credit card was charged IMMEDIATELY. The deliver went well as the link was provided immediately.
However I asked a question via the "Contact Us" link and days later I get a survey but no reply.
I may have been directed to the wrong forms via my County and I wanted to confirm that...but still no answer.
What would that deserve as a rating???
Also, your history on our site shows no messages sent via our contact us page.

The only problem I had was that it doesn't let you create a file for all documents to go into as one.
