303 Professional Legal Forms Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you decide to purchase this program you will need to have Macromedia Shockwave to use with this, and it does not tell you this until you install it. In addition this company did not bundle it on the CD-ROM. Even after installing this program it did not create a shortcut for it (though it is on my programs menu, and I was able to create a shortcut) from there. After installing Shockwave on my computer, it did not function properly. I was able to view the documents by clicking on them individually through the Windows registry, but it did not enable the macros so that I could fill them out. The wording of the documents and the many different types of documents offered are good, but this program does not work well at all on Windows 95, and I had so many problems with it I finally just uninstalled it and took it back to Office Depot. There is a cheaper program called PC Attorney available through Cosmi Software that works just as well if not better, or use Quicken Personal Lawyer, which is more money but definitely more user-friendly. Save yourself the hassle.

Kiplinger's Home & Business Attorney Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product puts together a very good collection of legal documents (for both home and business users). I sent the documents generated by this program to my clients and business associates and they all were very impressed (even my attorney friends). It is like you have an attorney resides in your computer.
The other major benefits are time and money saving. Using this program I can get a nice legal document ready to go in matter of hours in stead of days or even weeks and it has saved me few thousand dollars (if I opted for using attorney).
It asks the right / necessary questions before generating the documents and gives good explanations about the meaning of the legal term in case you need to know more about it. I seldom got lost using it.
It might not be a good word processor as MS WORD (I always export the document and edit it using WORD) but it is an A class legal document generator. For me, this is one of the very few S/W products that really worths many times of the price I paid for it.

Quicken Legal Business Pro 2008 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Many of the forms in the package, which I just opened, can be found for free on the web through your Secretary of State's Corporation Division, the IRS website, or a local university law library. If you have been in business for any length of time, these forms are too simple. If you are just starting out, it's worth the expense of consulting with a local attorney or, at least, checking out local business associations' and library resources first.

Quicken Legal Business Pro 2010 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What you get:
1. Book: Your Little Legal Companion-small paperback book with thoughts on every life event you can think of, from getting your first apartment, car or pet to dealing with identity theft or divorce. Not comprehensive and detailed but it covers enough topics to bring up things you might otherwise not have considered.
2. CD:
a. FORMS-some very basic forms for basic business needs. Invoices, job aplications, power of attorney. These are probably all something you could find free on-line. Those included here are customizable with step by step instructions.
b. E Books- 4 "books" are included with information on setting up and running a small business. The are launched in a separate window "book reader". I recommend using the "show" option which opens a navigation pane at the left of the screen so you can better move around within the books. There is a ton of information included, all cross referenced with clickable links to other books/chapters containing information associated to your topic. A search tab is included to look for specific topics if you don't want to guess what book/chapter they might be in.
c. Link to [...] which provides a legal encyclopedia which is free to anyone-not just those who have bought this program- and includes a lot of the same information as this program.
So to summarize: A lot of what is included in this package is already available to you on-line. This program's raison d'être is to consolidate all that information and would make it easier to research and stay in compliance. ONE BIG CONCERN- if this is the 2010 version, why is some of the information given "as of 2008"? Example: :Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). Set up by individuals, not by the business itself. Annual contribution limit of $5,000 (in 2008)". It should not only include what the 2009 limitations are but provide some way to automatically update for subsequent years. An e-book is not going to do that which will force me to go on-line to research changes for the current year thus defeating most of the purpose of having this program. Seems like a pretty big flaw. BOTTOM LINE: a good resource but not going to replace your CPA.
