No part of this web site or communication with personnel shall be used in place of competent legal advice.

Complaints: RAPID ADOPTION SERVICE is devoted to providing you with quality documentation. However, in the improbable event you should have any complaint with regard to our service or any of the products purchased from RAPID ADOPTION SERVICE, please send us an e-mail.
Refunds: Adoption is a complicated issue and we know that a host of things could arise during the process. Our refund policy reflects our ideal of, “We are here to help every single one of our customers through the adoption process.” All refunds given will be given based only on the 101% Performance Guarantee which states: “If the Judge fails to grant your adoption due to a paperwork typographical error, then we will correct the problem. If we cannot correct the problem, then your money will be refunded 101%.” If a refund is given outside of this predefined Guarantee it will be at the sole discretion of RAPID ADOPTION SERVICE. There will not be refunds given for: the purchaser changes their mind, not understanding your State Laws pertaining to adoption, problems relating to computers, the biological parents change their mind, claims of credit card abuse, out of state or country adoption petitioners, or a party decides to use the services of a lawyer. None of these circumstances are the fault of The Rapid Adoption Service and will not justify a refund. Also, if the local court does not accept the adoption forms initially, we will adjust the forms, if we have them. Some local courts have forms that are not available to have on computer. In this case, you will have to provide us with the form, in whatever format you can, if you would like to have a particular local form completed for you. This situation is adjustable and does not deem a refund. We are not responsible for local court forms. If a refund is given by discretion of RAPID ADOPTION SERVICE outside of the predefined 101% Performance Guarantee, then a $25 dollar administrative fee will be accessed. To receive a refund based on the Guarantee, you will be responsible to provide the court rejection notice that is received from the court.
