Frequently Asked Questions
How are traditional legal costs calculated?

Traditional costs are computed by multiplying standard drafting and review hours (between 1.5 to 5.0 hours depending on document complexity) by average state attorney billing rates.

Does Dokuily guarantee legal compliance?

No. Dokuily applies jurisdiction-aware checks where supported and records electronic-signature events, but laws and filing requirements change. Review the result against current official requirements or with a licensed attorney before relying on it.
