Always download or save any documents you need before or immediately after cancelling to avoid loss of access.
Account and data
Your account information typically remains on file unless you request deletion; contact support if you require account removal or data export.
Request written confirmation of cancellation and keep screenshots, confirmation numbers, and dates for your records.
Will I get a refund?
Annual subscriptions
Annual subscriptions: a refund is commonly available only within 30 days of the initial purchase for new subscriptions, according to public summaries.
Renewals are typically non-refundable - check the timing of your request and any promotional terms.
Monthly subscriptions and free trials
- Monthly subscriptions are generally non-refundable and non-prorated once charged.
- Cancelling during a free trial should prevent charges; if a trial converts to paid, refunds are not guaranteed.

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Cooling-off period
Under South African Electronic Communications and Transactions legislation, consumers may have a cooling-off period to cancel certain electronic agreements shortly after conclusion.
Reportedly, consumers can cancel within 7 days of agreement and should receive a full refund within 30 days where the cooling-off rules apply; see the statute summary at acts.co.za - cooling-off period.
Other consumer protections
- General rights include clear disclosure, honest marketing and fair contract terms.
- Negative‑option marketing (such as auto‑renewal without clear consent) is restricted; keep records of consent and renewal notices if you dispute a charge.

Documentation checklist
What to gather before contacting support
- Account email address and username.
- Order number, invoice or receipt showing the charge date and amount.
- Dates you attempted cancellation and any confirmation screenshots.
- Payment method details (last four digits of card) and subscription source (website, App Store, Google Play).
Evidence for refund disputes
- Copies of terms shown at signup, trial start and renewal notices.
- Any chat transcripts, email confirmations, or phone reference numbers from support.
Common mistakes
Assuming cancellation via app equals account cancellation
Example: Cancelling in the mobile app store stops store billing, but you should still check your LawDepot account for an internal cancellation confirmation.
Always verify both the store and the vendor account status to avoid unexpected renewals.
Waiting too long to request a refund
Example: Asking for a refund long after the 30‑day period for annual plans or after conversion from a free trial reduces chances of success.
Act promptly, gather proof, and cite applicable cooling-off or refund windows when you contact support.
