Affordable legal support for people going pro se.
I help you stay organized, prepared, and confident with your paperwork and court documents— without the cost of a full attorney. I do not give legal advice or appear in court, but I make the paperwork and process easier to manage.

Help & Frequently Asked Questions
A few answers to common questions about how this service works.
Are you an attorney?
No. I am not an attorney and I do not give legal advice. I provide administrative, organizational, and document-preparation support only. You are always encouraged to speak with a licensed attorney for legal questions or strategy.
What information do you need from me?
I work only with the information you provide: court documents, orders, your timeline, and your description of what you are trying to accomplish in your case. The more complete your materials, the better I can organize and format them.
Can you guarantee results?
No one can guarantee how a judge will rule. My role is to help your paperwork be clearer, better organized, and easier to follow—not to control or predict outcomes.
What if I already have an attorney?
If you are represented by an attorney, you should discuss any outside assistance with them first. My services are primarily intended for people who are fully or partially self-represented.
