Legal Document Assistant Andrew Helm has operated Absolute Executive Legal Document Assistance since 1989, registered and bonded with the San Diego County Clerk under California Business and Professions Code Section 6410 with the statutory $25,000 bond required for individual LDAs. The office sits directly across from the San Diego Family Court House on Fourth Avenue, preparing uncontested dissolution, child custody, and marital settlement agreement paperwork that clients file themselves or refer to counsel such as Mackaness & Ideta, LLP when a matter turns contested. Chapter 7 bankruptcy petitions, probate filings, living trusts, wills, restraining orders, and small claims packets round out the document preparation menu. Bankruptcy means test calculations and Schedule I and J income and expense declarations require tax transcripts and return documentation, which JoAnn Glatthaar, Enrolled Agent prepares for clients heading into Chapter 7 filings. Under California law LDAs cannot provide legal advice or represent clients in court, so the scope of engagement stays strictly within document preparation at client direction under Business and Professions Code Sections 6400 et seq. The most demanding files handled here are multi-asset probate filings with QDRO drafting, real property transfers, and creditor claim review running alongside a pending Chapter 7 petition in the same household.
