A simple Google search for "Wisconsin legal forms" returns dozens of Web sites offering legal, business, or general forms. Forms can be broadly categorized as either government-drafted or attorney-drafted. Forms produced by government or quasi-governmental entities may be mandatory, such as the Wisconsin Court System's Circuit Court forms, or voluntary. Unlike traditionally published form treatises or form sets, online forms tend to be murkier in origin, especially those drafted by attorneys. As with any Internet resource, users need to consider the source of the form and make their own evaluation as to whether the form's content is reliable and appropriate for their purposes.
