Description:

The forms you need to protect your family, your assets and yourself.

The law affects practically every aspect of our lives – but that doesn't mean you can't use it to your advantage. 101 Law Forms for Personal Use gives you step-by-step instructions and all the forms you'll need to cover the legal issues you're most likely to face every day.

Available as tear-outs and on CD-ROM, the forms include:

  • bills of sale for buying and selling personal property
  • promissory notes for lending and borrowing money
  • a basic will form and general power of attorney form
  • contracts for in-home child care
  • authorizations for when your children are in the care of others
  • releases to settle disputes
  • notices for dealing with telemarketers
  • contracts for home repair and remodeling
  • and much, much more

The 8th edition is completely updated for accuracy and ease of use, and now provides a new power of attorney for real estate, security agreement and identify-theft worksheet.
