What is a Legal Document Assistant (LDA)?

A California Legal Document Assistant (LDA) is a registered, bonded professional authorized under California Business and Professions Code Section 6400-6415 to prepare legal documents at your direction. Unlike attorneys, LDAs cannot provide legal advice, but we can help ensure your documents are properly prepared and filed according to California court requirements.

Benefits of using an LDA:

  • • Save thousands compared to attorney fees ($500-$1,500 vs. $3,000-$15,000+)
  • • Expert document preparation by experienced professionals
  • • Avoid costly rejections and delays
  • • Personal attention and faster processing

Important: Legal Success is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. We prepare documents only.
