I have used Bobby Klinck's legal templates for over a year, so when the Plainly Legal software was offered to me as a tester, I was in. First, Bobby and his team are top-notch and I knew from past experience that this was going to be something awesome. I have not been disappointed. The Legal Document Generator makes creating legal documents that you MUST have as an online business owner so easy, customizable, and time-saving. And I didn't have to spend hundreds of dollars hiring a lawyer when I learned I needed another legal document that I didn't have. For years, I was doing it the wrong way, praying that something wouldn't go wrong. Now, I know I'm protecting myself and my business.

A must-have tool for small business owners
Bobby and the team at Plainly Legal have thought of everything and then some to help small business owners smoothly and easily navigate the oftentimes daunting legal side of things. This tool is a must have for new and between business owners, not only because of the ease with which to get questions answered and documents generated for an affordable price, but also because Bobby and the team really truly do have your interests at heart. This is one of the few companies I have worked with that have crystal clear values. You’re not just getting legal help, but also honesty, integrity, transparency, and a sense of fun. They managed to make legal stuff fun!

You Won't Be Sorry; Here's Why
I rarely write reviews for anything, but Plainly Legal is so important to my business I felt moved to tell others.
Deep down, everybody knows that being in business carries legal risks. But that's all we know. We don't have a sense of what those risks are, exactly; or the ramifications of anything in the legal world. (Except that we don't want to be sued!) We don't even know what we don't know. It nags at the back of our minds.
But ignoring the spectre and hoping it will go away, or "it'll never happen to me," is no kind of strategy.
Big companies have whole legal departments. Medium-sized businesses have a lawyer (or a firm) on retainer. But *every* business, whether you're one person in a pick-up truck or a Fortune 500 corporation, needs legal support. Here are some scenarios:
- If you have clients or customers, don't you need contracts, agreements, terms of service? A refund policy? Or do you just hope you'll never have a dispute?
- If you have employees or subcontractors, don't you need employment agreements, subcontract scope-of-work, confidentiality, and non-disclosure agreements? Or is every employee going to be a match made in heaven?
- If you have an online presence, like a website, don't you need a solid privacy policy, terms of use, and disclaimer? Or do you just hope that privacy laws have bigger fish to fry and you'll go unnoticed?
Those are just a few common things to think about.
However, business owners aren't lawyers and we don't know what we don't know. What aren't we thinking about? What's not even on our radar?
But lawyers are expensive. They notoriously charge you just to pick up the phone and say hello. So we decide to gamble. "Since we can't afford legal help," we think, "maybe just hope we don't need it." Bad strategy, but it feels like there's no choice. Roll the dice.
Plainly Legal solves a LOT of these problems.
First, what it's not: It's not a lawyer. You can't pick up the phone and get a live person to give you legal advice. It's also not a law firm. You can't pick up the phone and have them react to a lawsuit on your behalf. Those kinds of things, you'll still need representation.
But Plainly Legal CAN help you keep things from ever getting to that point. And that's the missing piece. That's the need in the market that Plainly Legal saw; and they address it elegantly for service-businesses that're somewhere between Zero- and Full-Legal-Department.
Plainly Legal is the brainchild of a Harvard-trained lawyer with credentials as long as your arm. He's top-notch. I know, like, and trust him with my complex business. I feel like I'm in good hands.
- Plainly Legal does a great job with contracts, agreements, releases, NDAs, privacy policies, disclaimers, terms of use, and just about anything else I've run into. And they're adding more all the time.
- Plainly Legal does a great job with guidance and knowledge in plain English to fill-in the gaps so you don't feel like there's so much you don't know. There are explanations and analysis galore to help guide you through the Heart of Darkness that is the legal jungle.
- Plainly Legal does a great job of helping you analyze the current legal stance of your business and then bolster the areas where your legal strategy might be weak or unaddressed.
Being able to make full eye-contact with those three major areas, there's a level of comfort and peace-of-mind that comes over you. It's as if you had the power of a law firm giving you sound guidance, but without the worry of hemorrhaging cash every time you pick up the phone.
I can't praise Plainly Legal enough. If you're operating a service business (not so much for retail or physical products), Plainly Legal is likely going to help you immeasurably. If you're anything like me and my company, you'll be glad you have Plainly Legal on your side.
