Document Genius (documentgenius.com) offers fill-in templates for leases, NDAs, contracts, powers of attorney and other legal documents, plus PDF tools and e-signing. It starts with a 7-day trial that turns into a monthly membership unless you cancel: its help center gives $49.95 a month, or $119.88 a year on the annual plan. It is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.

The bottom line

Useful for one-off standard documents if you watch the trial renewal; the annual plan is far cheaper than paying monthly.

What it really isDocument Genius: subscription library of legal and business document templates, with PDF tools and e-signing.
Our takeDocument Genius walks you through a template with a few questions, then lets you edit, download, print or send the document for e-signature.
PDF tools cover editing, merging, converting, compressing and organising pages. It is a template and PDF service, not a law firm. The point to watch is billing: the trial rolls into a paid membership unless you cancel in time.
Why we rate itThe annual plan is a low-cost way to reach a broad set of standard legal templates, with e-signing and PDF tools included.
The catchThe monthly price after the trial ($49.95) is only stated in the help center, not on the pricing page, and the trial renews automatically.
Switching to the annual plan means cancelling, letting the plan expire and reactivating.
