The paid service adds: real validation against Wisconsin law (we will not let you write a $4000 deposit if the cap is ... wait, there is no cap, but other validations still apply), automatic late-fee math, custom "Additional Provisions" that you write reformatted into proper numbered subsections, polished preview before payment, and 7-day money-back guarantee.
