Hi ladies,

 Do you know any place that simple legal services are done by paralegals?

My parents had a power of attorney document drafted for them in 2008. It cost $400.00 for two doc! In 2009, the format of the document was changed in NY so the documents became obsolete.

I was told that "NY Statutory Short Form Power of Attorney" would replace the powers of attorney. We rather not pay a lawyer fee to update these docs.

 I was wondering if you could recommend a place (preferably in Manhattan or Park Slope) to have these docs updated by paralegals for reasonable price.

TIA!

  • NYU law school has free/low cost legal services, done by students and supervised by attorneys.  HTH.

  • my bad...it's not NYU law (though they may have these services).  try the Association of the Bar of the city of NY Legal Referral service.  212-626-7373.  they will at least be able to steer you in the right direction.
