Prepare and E-file your Court Forms Online
Learn about the legal case for your situation, create the court forms online in a friendly way, and then click to E-file them with the court.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Take Screening
Start with an online screening tool to help you determine whether the case type you're opting for fits your situation
2. Prepare Documents
Instead of reviewing the legal forms PDFs yourself, you will be guided through a series of friendly questionnaires that gather your information topic by topic. The questions are written in plain, non-legal language. To make this process as simple as possible, our system will generate the official court forms with your responses automatically filled in.
3. Consult Advocate (Optional)
Depending on your case you can consult a free victim advocate or court self help center for guidance. These resources, typically funded by the government, can help you review your case documents and provide direct consultation to discuss your case and safety planning.
4. File with the Clerk
You can formally begin your case by filing with your local court. The correct court will be displayed, as it is important to submit to one with jurisdiction over your case. You can digitally sign and e-file without the need to download or to print the forms. You have the option to download and print the forms and file in person.
