Frequently asked questions
Cancel LawDepot: The Right Way
How to cancel LawDepot and recover your money in ireland
What LawDepot is and why irish users cancel
LawDepot is an online legal document generation platform that creates customised templates for wills, employment contracts, tenancy agreements, powers of attorney, and other legal documents by guiding you through jurisdiction-specific questions. The service tailors its templates to Irish law, making it accessible for consumers who need quick, affordable alternatives to solicitor consultations.
You access LawDepot through a seven-day free trial that grants unlimited document creation and downloads. If you do not cancel before the trial expires, LawDepot charges your payment method automatically and converts you to a paid monthly or annual subscription. Many Irish users contact Yafee seeking cancellation help after discovering unexpected charges on their bank statements, often weeks after the trial ended. Others realise they no longer need the service or have found a more cost-effective solution. This guide explains your cancellation options, your legal protections under Irish consumer law, and the precise steps you must follow to avoid common traps that cost consumers thousands of euros annually.
How LawDepot's subscription model works
LawDepot operates a freemium conversion model: a free seven-day trial converts automatically to a paid subscription unless you actively cancel before that period ends. This auto-renewal system is lawful under Irish law, but you possess explicit cancellation rights that we explore in detail below. The key principle is that the burden of cancellation falls on you, not on LawDepot-but the process is straightforward once you understand the legal framework.
Why irish users most commonly cancel LawDepot
First, many consumers sign up to generate a single document (such as a tenancy agreement or employment contract) and forget to cancel before the trial period expires, resulting in a €30+ charge appearing on their credit card statement. Second, others complete their legal document work and no longer require unlimited access to the platform. Third, some users discover that consulting a qualified solicitor or purchasing documents through a cheaper competitor better serves their needs. Fourth, certain consumers object to the automatic renewal system itself, viewing it as an unfair commercial practice. Regardless of your reason, Yafee recognises that cancellation must be transparent and straightforward-and this guide ensures you achieve it.
LawDepot pricing and subscription tiers for ireland
Your subscription cost and renewal terms determine both your refund eligibility and your cancellation urgency.
| Subscription tier | Price (EUR) | Billing cycle | Auto-renewal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free trial | €0 | 7 days | Yes, unless cancelled |
| Monthly subscription | €29-€35 per month | Monthly | Yes, automatic |
| Annual subscription | €99-€119 per year | Once yearly | Yes, automatic |
| Promotional rate (first year) | €49-€59 | 12 months at discount | Renews at full rate next year |
Important: LawDepot's exact pricing may vary based on promotional campaigns and currency fluctuations. Always check your most recent invoice or account dashboard for your specific charge amount before initiating cancellation. If you spot a charge you did not authorise, Yafee advises documenting the transaction immediately-screenshot or download your bank statement and LawDepot's invoice-because this evidence supports your refund claim if a dispute arises.
Your consumer rights under irish law
Irish consumer protection law grants you explicit cancellation and refund rights when you purchase digital services from companies operating distance contracts, such as LawDepot.
The consumer rights act 2015 and your 14-day cooling-off period
Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (which implements the EU Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU), you possess a statutory 14-day cooling-off period to cancel any distance contract (such as an online subscription) without penalty and without providing a reason. This period begins on the date you enter into the contract-not the date you first use the service. For LawDepot's auto-renewing subscription, this means you have 14 days from the date your first payment processed to cancel and claim a full refund, provided you have not substantially used the service.
Critically, the 14-day window applies to your initial subscription purchase, not to each subsequent renewal charge. Once 14 days have passed, you move into the standard cancellation period, where your refund rights narrow considerably.
Cancellation and refund rights after the 14-day period
After your 14-day cooling-off period expires, you can still cancel your subscription at any time without penalty under Irish consumer law. However, you forfeit your automatic right to a refund for the current billing period. LawDepot may offer a pro-rata refund (a refund calculated by the number of unused days remaining in your billing cycle) at its discretion, but it is not legally obliged to do so. This is why acting quickly-either within the 14-day cooling-off period or immediately upon discovering an unwanted charge-is essential.
Your legal position: If LawDepot refuses to honour the 14-day cooling-off period or fails to cancel your subscription when you request it, you can escalate your complaint to the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC), which is Ireland's primary enforcement authority for consumer protection law. The CCPC can force LawDepot to issue a refund and may impose financial penalties if the company's conduct breaches the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
How to cancel LawDepot: step-by-step procedure
Follow these precise steps to cancel your subscription and protect your refund eligibility.
Step 1: gather your account information
Before contacting LawDepot, collect the following details:
- Your LawDepot account email address (the one you used to register).
- Your full name as it appears in your account.
- Your subscription start date or the date you made your first payment.
- Your payment method (last four digits of your card or PayPal email).
- Screenshots of your invoice or bank statement showing the charge amount and date.
This information allows LawDepot's customer service team to locate your account quickly and process your cancellation without delay.
Step 2: contact LawDepot via telephone
LawDepot offers telephone support Monday to Friday, 8 am to 7 pm Eastern Time (ET). From Ireland, this equates to 1 pm to midnight Irish Standard Time (IST) during winter, or noon to 11 pm Irish Standard Time during British Summer Time. Call the following number:
+1-855-231-8424 (toll-free from Ireland via internet telephony; standard international rates apply if dialling from a mobile or standard landline).
When you call, request a cancellation confirmation number immediately after the agent processes your cancellation. Write this number down and keep it with your records. This confirmation proves that you cancelled within the 14-day cooling-off period (if applicable) and protects you if LawDepot later disputes your cancellation or refund claim.
Step 3: submit cancellation via email
If you cannot reach LawDepot by telephone or prefer a written record, send a cancellation email to:
[email protected]
Your email must include:
- Subject line: "Subscription Cancellation Request" followed by your account email address.
- Your full name, account email, and subscription start date.
- A clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my LawDepot subscription effective today. Please confirm this cancellation in writing and provide a refund in accordance with the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the 14-day cooling-off period."
- Attach screenshots of your invoice or bank statement as evidence of the charge.
- Request a confirmation email once the cancellation is complete.
Send this email using a personal email account linked to your LawDepot subscription. Email is slower than telephone contact, but it creates an auditable paper trail-essential if you later need to escalate your complaint to the CCPC.
Step 4: send written cancellation notice (optional but recommended)
If LawDepot does not respond to your email within five working days, send a formal cancellation letter via registered post to their registered office. This step is particularly important if you are claiming a refund under the 14-day cooling-off period and LawDepot has not yet acknowledged your cancellation request.
Send your letter to:
LawDepot
340 S Lemon Avenue, Unit 9644
Los Angeles, California 90017
United States
Your letter must include:
- Your full name and account email address.
- Your date of subscription and the date you discovered the charge.
- A clear statement of cancellation: "I hereby cancel my LawDepot subscription effective immediately, in accordance with the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (UK/Ireland), and request a full refund of [€amount] to be processed within 14 days."
- A request for a written confirmation of cancellation and refund status.
- Your contact email and phone number.
- Attach copies (not originals) of your bank statement or invoice showing the charge.
Send this letter via registered post or tracked courier so you obtain proof of delivery. Keep the tracking confirmation and a copy of your letter for your records. This creates legal evidence that you cancelled within the required timeframe, which strengthens any future dispute claim you file with the CCPC or your bank.
Claiming a refund after cancellation
Your refund eligibility depends on how quickly you cancel and which legal period applies to your situation.
Refund within the 14-day cooling-off period
If you cancel within 14 days of your first payment, you are legally entitled to a full refund under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. LawDepot must process this refund within 14 days of receiving your cancellation notice. The refund is paid to your original payment method (your credit card or PayPal account). If 14 days have passed and no refund has arrived, contact your bank or payment provider and file a chargeback dispute (a formal challenge to the transaction) using the tracking evidence you gathered earlier.
Refund after the 14-day period expires
After 14 days, you lose your automatic cooling-off refund right. You can still cancel your subscription at any time, but LawDepot is not legally obliged to refund the current billing period. However, you may request a pro-rata refund (refund for unused days), and Yafee recommends asking politely in writing-many companies offer pro-rata refunds as a goodwill gesture even when not legally required. If LawDepot refuses and you believe the company has treated you unfairly, you can still escalate to the CCPC.
What to do if LawDepot refuses to refund
If LawDepot denies your refund claim despite being within the 14-day cooling-off period, follow this escalation procedure:
- Send a second formal email referencing your first cancellation request, your confirmation number (if you have one), and the date you originally cancelled. State: "I am invoking my statutory right to a refund under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Please issue a full refund within 7 days or I will escalate this matter to the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission."
- If LawDepot does not respond within 7 days, file a formal complaint with the CCPC online at www.ccpc.ie or by telephone at 089 636 4000. Provide your cancellation evidence, bank statements, and all correspondence with LawDepot.
- The CCPC will investigate LawDepot's conduct and, if the company has breached the Consumer Rights Act 2015, will compel LawDepot to issue your refund and may impose penalties.
Common mistakes that delay or prevent cancellation
Most cancellation failures stem from preventable errors-but once you know what to avoid, your cancellation will proceed smoothly and your refund will arrive on time.
Mistake 1: cancelling too close to the trial end date
Many users wait until day six or seven of the free trial to cancel, assuming they have until midnight on day seven. In practice, LawDepot processes cancellations during business hours (ET), and timezone delays or system lag mean your cancellation may arrive after the trial period has already expired and your first charge has already processed. Yafee's data shows this is the single most common cause of unwanted charges. Cancel on day one or two of your trial if you are certain you do not want the service. This gives you a five-day safety buffer and ensures your cancellation is processed well before the auto-renewal trigger.
Mistake 2: assuming an email cancellation is final
Sending a cancellation email to LawDepot is the right action, but many users stop there without following up. Email is unreliable-messages can be lost, misdirected, or ignored. After sending your cancellation email, wait three working days. If you do not receive a confirmation response, call LawDepot's telephone number immediately. This belt-and-braces approach ensures your cancellation is actually processed, not merely sent.
Mistake 3: not requesting a confirmation number
When you cancel via telephone, demand a confirmation number from the customer service agent before you end the call. This number is your proof that you cancelled, and it is essential if LawDepot later disputes your cancellation or if you need to file a complaint with the CCPC. If the agent refuses to provide a confirmation number, end the call and send a follow-up cancellation email stating the date and time you called, the agent's first name (if provided), and the topics you discussed.
Mistake 4: deleting your confirmation email
After LawDepot sends a cancellation confirmation email, many users delete it immediately or move it to a folder they later forget. Keep your cancellation confirmation email in your inbox or in a dedicated folder for at least 90 days. If a charge appears on your bank statement after you cancelled, you will need this email to prove you acted within the 14-day cooling-off period.
Mistake 5: failing to check your bank account after cancellation
After you cancel, monitor your bank account and credit card statements for the next two billing cycles. Occasionally, LawDepot's billing system processes a charge even after cancellation-either due to system error or intentional non-compliance. If you spot an unauthorised charge, report it to your bank immediately and file a chargeback dispute. Provide your bank with your cancellation confirmation email and LawDepot's contact details. Your bank will investigate and reverse the charge if your cancellation evidence is solid.
What happens after your cancellation is processed
Once LawDepot confirms your cancellation, several things occur automatically-and a few require your attention.
Immediate effects of cancellation
Your LawDepot account remains accessible for a brief period (usually 24 to 48 hours) after cancellation, allowing you to download any documents you created during your subscription. Download and save any documents you may need in the future, as LawDepot may delete them from your account once your subscription officially expires. After this grace period, your access to the full document library ends, though you retain copies of any documents you downloaded.
Payment and refund timeline
If you cancelled within the 14-day cooling-off period, LawDepot must issue a full refund within 14 days. The refund is processed to your original payment method (your credit card issuer or PayPal). Credit card refunds typically appear on your bank statement within 3 to 5 working days after LawDepot initiates the refund, though this depends on your bank's processing speed. PayPal refunds usually appear within 1 to 2 working days. Keep records of the refund date so you can confirm it matches LawDepot's promised timeline.
Preventing re-subscription
After cancellation, your payment method remains on file at LawDepot unless you explicitly request deletion. To prevent accidental re-subscription, contact LawDepot once more (via email) and explicitly ask them to delete your payment information from their system. State: "Please confirm that my payment method (last four digits: XXXX) has been permanently deleted from my LawDepot account and cannot be used for future charges." This additional step prevents future auto-renewal errors and protects you if LawDepot experiences a security breach that exposes stored payment data.
Comparing cancellation methods and timelines
Your cancellation method affects how quickly LawDepot processes your request and how strong your evidence is if a dispute arises.
| Cancellation method | Processing time | Evidence trail | Recommended for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Telephone (+1-855-231-8424) | Same day | Verbal confirmation only | Urgent cancellations; within 14-day period |
| Email to support | 3-5 working days | Email confirmation available | Cancellations with sufficient time before charge |
| Registered post to Los Angeles | 7-14 working days | Delivery receipt + letter copy | Disputed cancellations; CCPC complaints |
For maximum protection, use the telephone first to cancel immediately, then send a follow-up cancellation email within 24 hours. This dual approach ensures your cancellation is processed urgently while creating a written record that satisfies legal requirements.
Escalating your complaint to ireland's consumer authority
If LawDepot refuses to honour your cancellation or refund after you have followed the steps above, you can lodge a formal complaint with the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC).
Filing a complaint with the CCPC
Submit your complaint online at www.ccpc.ie/make-a-complaint or by post to:
Competition and Consumer Protection Commission
Bloom House
Railway Street
Dublin 1
D01 C576
Ireland
Your complaint must include:
- Your full name, address, and contact details.
- LawDepot's business name and registered address.
- A clear description of what happened (the charge, your cancellation attempt, and LawDepot's response or non-response).
- Copies of all correspondence with LawDepot (emails, telephone notes, cancellation confirmations).
- Copies of your bank statement or credit card invoice showing the charge date and amount.
- A clear statement of what resolution you seek (full refund, pro-rata refund, or other remedy).
The CCPC investigates consumer complaints and has the power to compel companies to issue refunds, correct unfair practices, and pay financial penalties if they breach Irish consumer law. Response times vary, but the CCPC typically acknowledges complaints within 10 working days and provides an update within 30 days.
What to keep on record after cancellation
Maintain comprehensive documentation of your cancellation for at least one year, in case a dispute arises.
| Document or evidence | Why you need it | How long to keep |
|---|---|---|
| Cancellation confirmation email from LawDepot | Proof that LawDepot processed your request | 1 year minimum |
| Telephone cancellation confirmation number | Timestamped proof you cancelled verbally | 1 year minimum |
| Bank statement showing the original charge | Evidence of the transaction date and amount | 1 year minimum |
| Bank statement showing the refund (if issued) | Proof that LawDepot honoured your refund request | 1 year minimum |
| Copies of all emails sent to LawDepot | Written record of your cancellation attempts and dates | 1 year minimum |
| Registered post delivery receipt (if applicable) | Legal proof that LawDepot received your cancellation letter | 1 year minimum |
Store these documents in a dedicated folder on your computer or in cloud storage. If you file a complaint with the CCPC or your bank, you will need to upload or attach several of these items, and having them organised saves time and strengthens your case.
Final action steps
You now understand your consumer rights, your cancellation options, and the precise procedures to follow. The next step is action-do not delay if you have an unwanted LawDepot charge on your bank statement.
If you are within the 14-day cooling-off period, call LawDepot's telephone number today: +1-855-231-8424 (Monday to Friday, 8 am to 7 pm ET). Request a confirmation number and follow up with a written email confirmation within 24 hours. If LawDepot refuses your refund or fails to respond within five working days, escalate immediately to the CCPC using the complaint procedure outlined above.
