Quid Pro, LLC Louisiana Notary and Legal Forms with Explanations: 2024 Edition

More than 170 ready-to-use forms and exemplars useful in dozens of legal contexts — annotated with helpful introductions and notes to clarify how to apply the law to the forms, and what the various clauses mean. There has long been a need for an affordable and comprehensive collection of forms and examples applicable to Louisiana civil law. Attorney and notary alike want access to valid, up-to-date, and adaptable forms for a wide variety of legal and notarial acts and documents. Previous volumes have cost as much as $956 in paperback — not very accessible to small notary and law practices! Collections of forms sold by organizations and practitioners are a good start but not necessarily complete, formatted or kept current. And using AI for Louisiana law is an invitation to malpractice. It hasn’t been easy to draft valid acts unless they are stitched together like Frankenstein. This resource fills the gap and addresses the need for readily available forms, and adds detailed explanations as well. The authors are practicing Louisiana notaries who also hold law licenses in Louisiana (Michele Childress) and California & D.C. (Steven Alan Childress). They previously published the best-selling guides to preparing for the notary exam: Michele wrote a simplified but comprehensive Outline of the official state text, and Alan wrote the essential Sidepiece book of tips on taking the exam, as well as a volume of Sample Questions with explanations. Together they teach the leading remote-online seminars on notary law and starting a practice. Forms cover such subjects as testaments and successions, power of attorney, dozens of affidavits, real estate transfers, donations, motor vehicle sales, public inventory, small successions, and family law. (These forms are also available in formatted Word files as a download from the authors' site, sold separately.) The newest addition to the Sherpa Series from Quid Pro Books.
