We just received our official recorded documents from the County Recorder's office. This service organization provides the expertise, notary and even took our signed documents to the recorder's office and paid the recording fee. It was included as part of the fixed price fee which I found to be totally reasonable. I rarely give a five-star review, but this place has been just amazing. I will utilize their services again if needed in the future. Kudos to Barbara!

My visits to sign papers were no more than 15 minutes and they were always prepared for me no matter if I had an appointment or just popped in. They explain everything in detail and in terms so you can understand what you are expected to do now and in the future. No guess work.

Absolutely love these people! I needed help finishing my Divorce. California Document Preparers moved heaven and earth to help me. It feels like I have family in my corner!

Why did I put this off so long? So easy to set up my trust. Bill at California Document Preparers is great to work with and one third the price quoted by a lawyer. I feel confident these people know what they're doing!
Nancy M.
Super nice people. Made my experience of going through a bunch of legal paperwork seamless. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs support with legal documents, as something that they really just want to get through and be over with.

Ian at California Document Preparers helped me with a Quit Claim Deed—great service and advice at just $180. Ian kept the process moving forward. He forwarded the completed and filed document to me, my wife and the credit union. Thanks, Ian. Great service!

I have used California Document Preparers to help prepare my personal and business legal documents. They are patient and trustworthy with confidential issues. Their fees are much lower than those of an attorney. They are available in person or by phone to assist. I highly recommend them to everyone I know.
- Jacqueline F.
I discovered California Document Preparers, a wonderful service, through Yelp a few years back. I returned today and found the same courteous, intelligent, and thorough help and advice. My trust was professionally, efficiently, and carefully updated due to my request for changes.

I needed to buy out my partner on a property. We hired lawyers, which started to look very expensive. Ian, at California Document Preparers explained this in simple terms and completed the transaction for us. I can’t recommend these guys highly enough
- Anne K.
Its amazing what this outfit is capable of performing. It's equally amazing how capable they are of sizing up a situation and foreseeing the correct legal course to take and it's outcome. They helped be with inheritance and title change issues that I was completely lost with. Ian broke the entire ordeal of Probate down to easy to swallow talk and simple sign here, initial here action. They made sure to keep me in the loop during the process, and were able and willing to answer every question and concern I had along the way. I have and will recommend California Document Preparers for all non-contentious legal needs to all.

Never knew that the process of putting your husband on a second mortgage was such a big deal, but California Document Preparers walked us through it. We could have done it ourselves, but eliminating the risk was way worth the minimal expense.
Johnny M.
Great quick trip to get some documents notarized. I had called the day before and scheduled an appointment. Corey was super patient and professional. We really appreciate his customer service. He even re-printed my documents when I signed them wrong! Very reasonable price.
Yolanda S.
My experience with California Document Preparers was outstanding. I worked through a complicated divorce with Ian. He was incredibly knowledgeable and made a difficult process look easy.
Jeff B.
I used California Document Preparers for my Living Trust and estate plan and, most recently, for my business incorporation. Ian, especially, is incredibly knowledgeable and willing to help me with intimidating paperwork--even long after their services have been paid for!
- Charlene L.
We just completed and received documentation involving estates, properties and other issues. Process was lengthy and rather complex. To their credit Cory and Ian were very helpful and extremely professional. Some alterations in the final product were dealt with today in a cordial and understanding way. We can, without a doubt, certainly recommend California Document Preparers!
Craig M.
Ian, Valerie and the rest of the team at California Document Preparers were so helpful and patient with me and my former wife. I filled out all the documents and within months, our Divorce was complete. My ex gives them a 5-star rating too.
Rexamillion A.
What outstanding service! Ian was responsive, professional and easy to work with. Why pay megabucks to a lawyer when California Document Preparers can do this for significantly less with great customer service and professionalism. Highly recommended!
Jay D.
I didn't know document preparers existed. Wow. I spent $4000 after my mom died to do the same thing they did for $400ish. What I had to do was straightforward, and Ian, the owner, was great about not giving advice, but explaining what needed to be done.
Dana C
We went to California Document Preparers to transfer names on a Deed. The process was smooth, from collecting information to reviewing the legal documents. I made an appointment to have my documents notarized. Friendly and patient. Great customer service.
Ken A.
Everyone at California Document Prepares in Walnut Creek was extremely helpful and professional. Not pushy, but willing to listen to questions and concerns. I would certainly recommend their services.
E. Barrons
Corey was so patient and understanding as he explained everything to me. I had 2 appointments and got everything done. I have the documents sent to my family, my healthcare provider and my original copies that CDP placed in a neat, tabbed binder for my easy reference. Fantastic service!
Mel W.
We have used California Document Preparers for their notary services and just used them to do our Living Trust. Working with Corey was above and beyond our expectations. He was so helpful and knowledgeable and walked us through what everything meant.

Ian, at California Document Preparers, made my Divorce as painless as it can get. Helpful, available and knowledgeable throughout the process. He was patient and worked according to my timeline. If yours is an uncontested Divorce, CDP provides a wonderful service at a fair price.

What a different experience dealing with California Document Preparers--and Caitlyn in particular! She is smart, knows what she is doing and explained concepts so I understood my options. My divorce is over and the paperwork is filed. I am very grateful.
Olga K.
California Document Preparers is professional, courteous, and extremely responsive. They were always there to answer questions, and I actually felt like I'd engaged in a business partnership. While I'm certain the entire staff is fantastic, Ian raised the bar on professional services.
Michael J.
Awesome service at affordable price. A lawyer tried to mediate my divorce; they charged me for every email and call, and it cost me thousands of dollars. Ian handled my paperwork, answered all my inquiries, questions and concerns with a positive, caring attitude.
Simon T.
They got the job done, giving me good advice and all of the forms I needed to execute a quitclaim deed without any tax penalty. Their advice was better than that of a title company or my mortgage broker—all for about $180. Great value.

I have been using California Document Preparers for several years now and appreciate the relationship I have developed with them. They are so generous with their knowledge and have become my go-to source of information when I have questions about payroll, paying state taxes, setting up my DBA, and more. They’re a wonderful business resource.
- Charlene L
One of the best companies I've ever encountered. EVERYONE at the California Document Preparers office is friendly and helpful. Communication is great, answered every phone call and question. Give them a call and they will save you thousands of dollars. THANK YOU!

My experience with California Document Preparers was great. Val and Tom guided me through the process of creating a Living Trust and removing my husband from the deed to our house. They explained everything thoroughly. I recommend California Document Preparers to friends and colleagues.
Charlotte M.
Excellent service, needed to do a probate and California Document Preparers made it so easy and fast. As I leave this office I'm heading to the bank. That's called headache-free and a very reasonable rate.
- Tell it L.
Chicago Title referred me to California Document Preparers and I couldn't happier with their service. Barbara was courteous, knowledgeable and accommodating. She even caught the need for a couple of other documents that demonstrated her expertise and efficiency. I'm referring my friends and colleagues to CDP. What a great service!
- Susan B
Excellent attention to detail, organization and follow-up. (I used California Document Preparers to change the title on a property.)
Carny A.
California Document Preparers helped me prepare my Trust, Health Directive and Power of Attorney. They were first class all the way, and they have been wonderful about helping me understand the process. I highly recommend them, especially Lynne Jenkins. She was patient, professional and really helped me.
Steve H.
I would like to thank California Document Preparers for all your effort helping my family deal with issues surrounding my parent’s estate. I could have never done it without your help. I was met with the kindness and courtesy. Before anyone sees a lawyer, stop and consult with this firm. Brook was wonderful, and I would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone in need of legal help.
Kathy L.
California Document Preparers provides a great alternative for those going through a divorce who don't want to/can't spend the money on an attorney. The pricing is really fair. We were given an estimated timeline for completion and they met it. They expedited the filing of our documents to help us meet our deadline. We were impressed with CDP’s customer service and have referred friends and colleagues to them.
Jamie C
While I filed the first few court documents on my own, I quickly discovered I was in over my head when I tried to draft my settlement agreement. My situation was neither contentious nor complex, so I contacted Ian at California Document Preparers, and he helped us complete and understand each step. I am super grateful to him for making it so easy for us!
~ Mara V.
I needed to change the ownership of our San Francisco property. California Documents was very easy to deal with and lightening fast. Easy, safe walk from BART. We were a half an hour early but they took us in right away and notarized the information. I was so glad they were recommended to me.
Vickie B.
Super helpful team at California Document Preparers. I called for information, was thinking of using them to prepare/serve dissolution documents. They were extremely patient and open. I filled out my own papers, but I would use them had I not been so far along already in the process.
A big thank you to Barbara and Bill for helping me get through this Probate process so smoothly. I started this action trying to save a house from the County Assessor and ended up saving my sister as well. It has been a rough process for me and my family, but I suppose these issues always are. Keep up the good work!
– Bonnie
I was pleasantly surprised and put at ease by the way Lynné Jenkins, at California Document Preparers, simplified things in order for me to get the ball rolling with my living trust. She was there for me from the start to finish. Skilled and knowledgeable. I highly recommend CDP.
Lynne Jenkins
California Document Preparers provides fantastic document preparation services. Reached out with questions and they responded within an hour. I decided to do a Deed transfer on a Saturday and it was easy. This is my company for all my document preparation needs.

Ian at California Document Preparers simplifies the process as much as possible by providing easy-to-understand workbooks that help you get organized. He takes it from there and does all the paperwork and processing with the court.

I have done multiple Deed Transfers with California Document Preparers' Dublin branch. Tom is very helpful and reliable. I have used their services for the past two years and I will continue to work with them.
- Mehtab G.
The staff was extremely patient and helpful. My issue was handled and I signed on to have them do my Living Trust. I cannot express enough their patience and understanding. I came to the office based on their Yelp reviews and am now giving them my own 5-star review.

California Document Preparers’ Dublin office is very professional, and I highly recommend Val, Tom and Sue. I created a Living Trust, which includes a Power of Attorney and Advanced Healthcare Directive. Protect your estate from Probate and make life easy for your heirs. No more procrastination!
~ Malcolm P.
I’m thankful I found California Document Preparers to do my Living Trust. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They answered all my questions and the fees are very reasonable. I recommend California Document Preparers to friends and co-workers who all have the same feedback: “What great service!”
May Mattson
Got a Deed transfer done at California Document Preparers, in and out quickly. Good service and good value. Only drawback is the hard to find parking around that section of the Lake, but you can park at WholeFood, grab a coffee there then journey up to the office to get your paperwork done.
David Y.
Valerie Jackson, at California Document Preparers, thank you for all of your help. You made life a little easier. Your customer service skills are out of this world. Wish more people could be like you. I will be recommending you to other people.
