About ClearDoc

Established in 2002 and headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, ClearDoc is a provider of online legal documentation solutions. The company operates as a business unit of Thomson Reuters following its acquisition in June 2011.

ClearDoc offers a web-based platform where users can generate a wide range of compliant Australian legal documents through a guided question-and-answer interface. The service is designed for accountants, financial planners, lawyers, business advisors, and entrepreneurs. The platform's document suite covers company formations, Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSF), trusts, human resources, and estate planning. Upon completion and payment, customized documents are immediately available for download.

The business model is pay-per-document, with no sign-up or ongoing fees, making it a cost-effective alternative to traditional legal services. As an authorized Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) software provider, ClearDoc facilitates fast electronic company lodgements. The legal integrity of the master documents is maintained through a long-standing partnership with the Australian law firm Maddocks, which signs off on the templates and provides a free legal helpline for customers regarding the documents they have ordered.
