The
NOLO
Story
 
Dear friends,
Since 1971, Nolo has worked hard to help Americans get a fair shake from the legal system. How? By producing books, software, forms and a website that translate legal jargon into plain English, offer clear instructions for routine tasks and break down complex systems into easy-to-understand components.
All of our publications are relentlessly researched and tested by a dedicated group of in-house legal editors. And when we come out with a new edition, you’ll know that it’s been thoroughly updated.
There’s a reason why Nolo is not only the nation’s oldest, but also the most respected provider of legal information. Our mission, reflected in everything we publish, is to give consumers and small businesses the best information available. We’re proud that tens of millions of Americans have looked to Nolo to help them solve their problems and achieve their goals.
Ralph Warner,
Nolo co-founder
