Questions
Is this non-disclosure agreement (nda) valid in Florida?
Yes. The Florida edition is the state-neutral form with the Florida statute, filing office and document names typed in, and the clauses Florida treats differently adjusted. It is a template you complete yourself; have an attorney licensed in Florida review it if your situation is unusual.
What file do I get?
A zip with the Florida edition and all other 50 state editions, each as Word (.docx) files in English and Spanish, plus the Instruction Sheet. Open in Microsoft Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice.
How do I complete it?
Open the Instruction Sheet first. Replace each yellow [BRACKETED FIELD] with your information, delete the options you do not use, delete the cover page, then print or e-sign.
Do I need a notary or a lawyer?
The Instruction Sheet says when a signature needs a notary and lists the situations where the form is not enough and an attorney should review it.
