Frequently asked questions
- Are these templates legally valid?
- They follow the usual form for each country and say what such a letter or contract normally says, but they are not legal advice. For anything with a lot at stake, have the finished document checked by a lawyer or the office you are sending it to.
- Why are some templates for one country only?
- A sworn statement in France, a rental agreement in Brazil or a formal notice in Turkey each has its own required wording. Those pages are written in that country’s language and in English, so you can read what you are signing.
- Do I sign on paper?
- Yes. Print the PDF and sign it by hand, and give each party a signed copy to keep.
- Is what I type kept private?
- Yes. Names, addresses and amounts are put into the PDF in your browser and are not uploaded, and there is no account to make.
