<v Narrator>Gale's Legal Forms Library</v>

[00:00:02.729]
is an extensive collection of free forms,

[00:00:05.231]
including official state-specific, federal, business,

[00:00:09.007]
personal, real estate, and general forms covering hundreds

[00:00:12.348]
of legal subjects and issues.

[00:00:14.917]
You'll find two types of forms in Gale's Legal Library:

[00:00:18.888]
basic or standard forms and complex forms.

[00:00:24.497]
Basic or standard forms generally can be used

[00:00:27.414]
with only minor modifications and are sometimes referred to

[00:00:30.942]
as fill-in-the-blank forms.

[00:00:34.097]
Complex forms should be used only as a guide

[00:00:37.389]
and are best suited for attorneys.

[00:00:39.791]
Most of these forms are litigation type forms

[00:00:42.349]
or complex contracts which require major modifications

[00:00:45.784]
to fit a particular case based upon the facts of a case.

[00:00:56.752]
You'll also find a combination of state-specific forms,

[00:01:00.652]
which are forms that are only valid in a particular state,

[00:01:04.137]
and non-state-specific forms,

[00:01:06.579]
which are forms that are valid in almost all states.

links for downloading the form,

[00:01:35.868]

[00:01:38.231]
