Nevada Legal Assistant Bond

Nevada document preparers, sometimes known as legal assistants, are defined as legal assistance services which provide, for compensation, legal assistance in certain matters.  This may include the preparation of legal papers.

These preparers are regulated by the Nevada Secretary of State.

(IN JULY OF 2017, Nevada began requiring tax preparers to also post a $50,000 surety bond with the Secretary of State.  This article refers to tax preparers as well)

Qualifying and the Premium

You are automatically approved for the $50,000 Nevada tax preparer (document preparer bond).  There is no credit check involved.  Instead, after completing an application which we'll take from you over the phone --- and paying the premium of $500, our agency issues this bond to you immediately.

Note that there is no credit check nor underwriter review involved to obtain this surety bond; you are approved when you call.

Once the premium has been paid, the bond is issued to you and mailed to you by the following business day.  Upon receipt of your surety bond, you'll need to sign it as Principal before filing it with the Secretary of State.  A Power of Attorney form will also be included in the mailing.

Premium Prepayment Options

At $500 premium, your surety bond is issued to you for a one year period.  Thereafter, it will renew on the anniversary of its issuance.  Our agency also offers you the option to prepay your bond up to 3 years, thereby offering you a savings over annual renewals.  The breakdown is as follows:
