SmartLegalForms’s libraries of automated legal documents are powered by Rapidocs®, our proprietary document and form automation technology, developed in-house exclusively for this purpose.
Rapidocs® guides the client user through an ‘intelligent’ question-and-answer session which transforms their answers into tailor-made legal documents in real time. When the online “Questionnaire” is completed by the client and submitted to the firm, a first draft document set is ready for download, review and amendment (if needed) by the firm. The final document(s) is/are uploaded to the “client space”, ready for instant download.
The underlying technology of Rapidocs® is very sophisticated, but the Q&A process is very simple. Guidance and advice (help prompts) are provided throughout the interview process so that the vast majority of queries that a user may have are dealt with immediately, within the Questionnaire itself, without recourse to an expert.
With Rapidocs® you get the rare benefits of a highly innovative solution, with the stability of a tried and tested application – it was first developed in 1996. Every month, the system is used by thousands of individuals and has an unequalled track record in the self-help legal document market.
Rapidocs serves as both an efficiency and a quality-control tool, delivering powerful features and benefits.
