That's because, as a developer,

is usually a naive under statement.

OP, I would shop your project on UpWork, US contractors only.

I developed a similar program for an attorney friend many years ago.

You can do this fairly easily using a Microsoft Office tools plugin. It will allow you to create some template documents with placeholders for keywords in your database.

For example, you create your document as "Dear ##First_Name## ##Last_Name##" (or similar) and the tools substitute in the correct data.

Think it through fully, like Fat Batman said - clients always underestimate the amount of time/effort it takes to "fully" develop an application. Scope Creep is your budget's worst enemy...
