Legal Document Preparation
Using a Legal Document Preparer
Texas law authorizes non-lawyers called "Legal Document Preparers" to prepare forms for
consumers who wish to handle their own legal paperwork. Legal Document Preparers are
experienced individuals who possess a legal background and charge much less than attorneys.
Legal Document Preparers do not offer legal advice. You are responsible for making decisions
about how to proceed with your case, the preparation of your documents and for providing the
information to the LDP to prepare your documents. LDPs ONLY prepare your documents under
your specific direction, file them at the appropriate courts for you, and distribute legal materials
that have been published or approved by an attorney.
Many Legal Document Preparers specialize in one or two areas; for example, some handle only
divorce paperwork, child custody, visitation, wills, living trusts, probate, etc. and others only
specialize in bankruptcies or unlawful detainer. Be sure to use the LDP that is most experienced
in the paperwork you need prepared.

Certifying Acceptance Agent and Individual Tax Identification Numbers (ITIN)
Acceptance agents are individuals or entities that enter into a written agreement with the IRS authorizing them to assist foreign nationals and foreign entities in completing the forms and submitting Forms W-7 (with required documentary evidence) and SS-4 (with supplemental schedules) to the IRS on behalf of the applicant.
Certified acceptance agents are authorized to submit a Form W-7 to the IRS on behalf of an ITIN applicant without furnishing supporting documentary evidence. When the certifying acceptance agent submits the Form W-7, they must certify that:
- They have reviewed the appropriate documentation evidencing the applicant’s identity and alien status,
- The documentation, to the best of their knowledge and belief, is authentic, complete, and accurate, and
- They are maintaining a record of such documentation.
Certifying acceptance agents must describe the documentation on which they are relying. In appropriate cases, the IRS may request to see the documentation before issuing an ITIN.
ITINS
These are numbers issued by the IRS to individuals who are required to have a U.S. taxpayer identification number but do not have one, and are not eligible to obtain a Social Security Number (SSN) from the Social Security Administration (SSA). We can assist your business in obtaining these numbers for tax purposes, and we prepare W-7 forms and submit them to the IRS.
