Frequently Asked Questions
What is Timely Contract®?
Timely Contract delivers online legal solutions to Buyers and Sellers of real estate by matching an Order Request to a TC Certified attorney licensed in the jurisdiction of the property. Timely Contract is not a law firm.
1st Attorney Call No-Charge, No-Obligation
Upload your Order Request and speak to a TC Certified attorney. The first conversation is no-charge and there’s no obligation to engage the services of the attorney.
Do you do real estate forms?
Short answer is no. Use TC Drafting before you’ve signed for documents as unique as your transaction. Use TC Review after you’ve signed when you have questions regarding boilerplate documents.
When should I upload an Order Request?
The best time is before you’ve signed a purchase and sale agreement. If you’ve signed, on the 1st Attorney Call ask the TC Certified attorney if there’s enough time to address your legal concern.
What if I order the wrong solution?
On the 1st Attorney Call, the TC Certified attorney will inquire about your legal concerns and recommend the correct solution.
What is a limited-scope legal service?
A limited-scope legal service addresses a specific legal risk defined by the client, rather than addressing all legal risks identified by an attorney.
How do you keep legal fee billings low?
Limited-scope legal solutions require less time to perform. Less time spent by an attorney means less money spent by the client.
