Voices of Victory: Our Members Share Their Success

I was caught ‘flat-footed’ when a lawyer who runs a ‘lawsuit machine’ sued me. Now I am forced to play defense. I spoke to four lawyers who all conveyed confidence that they could win my case – but, they all wanted a minimum of $5,000 to represent me. Now that I have discovered COURTROOM5 I feel that I have the tools and information to navigate the complex legal process. COURTROOM5 offers a vitally important resource for PRO SE litigants to pursue or defend their cases.

— Brock

I signed up yesterday, and already got answers and insight that I seriously needed NOW. I would have happily paid someone 10 times what Courtroom5 is per month for the answers to the topic I posted. I couldn’t recommend Courtroom5 more highly.

— Steven

I became a Pro Se litigant after dealing with an attorney who charged me over $25k for a case involving a house. Unfortunately, I got virtually nowhere with the case, and ultimately had to file bankruptcy. I am so glad I became a member…it’s been extremely helpful. I would have been lost without the information and knowledge I’ve gained here. I am grateful!!!

— Sherlene

After receiving my motion for summary judgment of which I received zero assistance from an attorney but helpful guidance from this site,  defense has accused me of receiving counsel’s assistance and pleads in their answer that I should not get any pro se leniency.  That is the power of Courtroom5.

— James

WOW , I Wish I signed up for CTRM5 earlier in my case, but I signed up just in time for the discovery process, which to me and all my legal troubles is a huge relief. At first I didn’t apply myself to the program or understand the navigation while I was busy stressing over my next court move, but CTRM5 reached out to me several times and guided me just where I needed to be at this time. The program just takes a little effort to gain many many rewards, you won’t be sorry.

— Karen

Thanks for offering this platform, so far I am very pleased! Staff has been very helpful in helping me to get going. I can see our legal system needs help, it seems like it has almost been hijacked by lawyers making it impossible for the little broke guy to make headway in seeking justice. No one should be denied justice simply because they can’t afford council, this platform can help you do many things that seem impossible on your own. Its going to take much effort and research on your end as well, just signing up isn’t going to make you win – but it will help even the odds and increase your chances of success by offering otherwise buried resources.

— Dave

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this service! Not only is the customer service outstanding, but it’s so nice to have a community forum where you can receive feedback from other members about your case or strategy. The legal templates and document samples are also extremely helpful. This subscription makes getting organized easy, and at a very reasonable price. Frees you up to focus on the important things….winning! I live in a town where there are no special education attorneys, and the few advocates I’ve managed to track down have been little to no help. When preparing to go up against my local school district I accidentally stumbled onto this website and it has truly been a lifesaver!!

— Angella

This service is excellent and the customer service and responsiveness of the people behind it is astonishing. I have only been on it for one days and it already been well worth it. I believe Courtroom5 has a very bright future. Too much success might be the only risk it faces. It is a very noble venture. Finally a weapon for David against Goliath!

— Cyril

You are truly a champion of the “Pro-se litigant and defender”. Americans need Courtroom5, especially today when few people can afford $500/hour attorneys. I have learned quite a bit about our legal system from Courtroom5 and I know this will help me to present my case in a strong and successful way. Thank you !

— Frank

I am thrilled with the help I have gotten so far. I was getting sick to my stomach each time I thought about having to appear on my own. I really didn’t think I would win the case, but was going to give it my best shot. I feel that my best shot just got a lot better, and now I’m thinking I could actually win!

— Gypsie

This a wonderful help to pro se and I hope more people will use it. Thank you courtroom 5 for all your help .

— Marzine

This website has a wealth of info. I am truly grateful to the moderators, they are a resource of information.

— Eric

My college professor said you need a doctor to get you into this world and a lawyer to get you through it. Right class ? Never forgot that comment for some reason. I wish this site was around many years ago. This site is highly beneficial. One to keep reviewing to have it down pat. You never know when you’re going to need it and when you do, you dont want to have to learning in a rush. Unfortunately, that is the situation most of us are in. At least this website breaks it down so you can learn fast and get yourself up to speed. It beats the many dumb lawyers who take your money and treat you like garbage any day.

— Robert

Due to the circumstances and statutes pertaining to my case a lawyer was effectively locked out of a financial opportunity if they prevailed. Needless to say I had few options except to pursue my case as a pro se litigant . Since becoming a member I have recieved invaluable information in regards to litigating my case, which in turn saved both time and money.

— Charles

This site has given me more legal assistance than many of those law websites I have paid. I would recommend this site to pro se who are tired of been ripped off by lawyers. Civil procedures and rules are very important when you decide to go pro ce. This site is invaluable as a start.

— Cal

CourtRoom5 was God sent. At least I can represent myself more competently due to the resources provided by CourtRoom5. I also love the fact that I am not in this law situation all alone when I read the Community options and read the blogs. Not only is the lawsuit physically draining, but mentally as well. I don’t feel alone in this big legal fight against Goliath. Goliath has drained my funds so that I can not afford an attorney even if I wanted to. I have no choice but to go Pro Se or loose my livelihood without a legal fight. If I am going to loose, at least I can sleep better at night knowing that I did the best that I could do considering the circumstances. Thank God for CourtRoom5. The information is invaluable and important to anyone regardless of the fact that you are a Pro Se litigant or not. With CourtRoom5, you can ask smarter questions and know when you are being ripped off, ignored, and disrespected.

— Cindy

I have found the information supplied by Courtroom5 to be very helpful in understanding the court process as well as educating me as a Pro Se Litigant.

— Terry

Courtroom5 is by far one of the BEST sites I have bump into as a Pro Se litigant. There is so much injustice done on a daily basis within the system. Pro Se litigants come off as getting bullied around a lot. I understand the courts in a way, dealing with frivolous claims. But for those who are really seeking “Justice” this site is where you would want to be. The staff are swift with response on your questions. Many people have good cases, but don’t have money for lawyers, I believe this is the best place for you to be. Sometimes we count on the Law to be on our side when the evidence clearly shows, but that isn’t always the case. Something I just recently learned. I really honor this website for trying to help those who aren’t able to afford an attorney. But, to make a long story short, I really appreciate Courtroom5 You all are definitely needed and making a difference in the community

— Jason

Great staff!! Valuable teaching and very helpful tutorials to help build confidence at a stressful time. Thank you for your help at an affordable price!!

— Lewis

Courtroom 5 has been a fantastic find for me. The questions that can be answered here are very useful, and i do not need worry about the bias which attorneys usually demonstrate- (that get rich off of my ignorance stuff).

— Joseph

Courtroom5 – Thank you very much for creating such a fantastic job to get things together and make them very helpful to pro se litigants like me. I’ve been part of another legal subscription before, but after a while of my subscription, I felt that my questions are not that welcome anymore and that made me feel uncomfortable. Until I found this community that provides a vast of information that I could use to move forward with my case. You guys have genuine hearts and understands what a pro se litigants are going through.

— Angela

This site is very informative, and loaded with valuable legal information on accessing the legal system, or filing your case Pro Se. I was faced with a legal situation, and did not know exactly how to handle. I googled “legal help”, and this site just popped up and attracted me out of all the other sites. I am a spiritual person, so I know that it was divine inspiration that lead me to this site. I followed the urging and so glad I did.

— Jaaziel

Helpful for me. Many thanks!

— Boris

These ladies at CourtRoom5 are magnificent. CR5 is a brilliant work of art for any Pro Se litigant.

— Civil

Courtroom5 is very well organized and the workshops they provide are very helpful. Anyone that is going to be a pro se litigant should join up. The templates of various legal documents and the research tools are invaluable.

— Steve

When you are a Pro se litigant, it is unknown and scary territory that you navigate. You will need all the help you can get. Not only does the guidance from Courtroom5 help you but also an awesome community of people facing similar challenges. Don’t try and go it on your own, join the community to assist you. Don’t expect legal advise or that they will represent you but Courtroom5 and the community will help you shape your case and help you to avoid pitfalls. If you get stuck, someone will be there to give advise on how to move forward. Take control of your case. Good luck.

— Sonia

I read all Courtroom5 materials that had related to mine and had gathered all the samples given pleadings that pertained to my case and had used & applied them in my situations. I went through all the courses one time and did the test as much as I would like. So far so good. I also went through both Florida Small Claim Court Procedure and Florida Rules of Civil Procedure once. Hope I have more time to go through another time before trial. Many information in these procedure manual will help pro se to understand how to deal with court. Less than two months with Courtroom5 help me a lots to be a very good Pro Se litigant. The Sunday workshops are very good and very helpful, except there are no handout, Otherwise, those notes are going to be very useful when appear in the Court! Thanks for all the answers.

— Mildred

Hello, Peace and Blessings to everyone. I don’t know if this is the area to say “Thank You” but Thank You. I am happy to announce that my case with Capital One was deemed a Voluntary Dismissal. This platform is AWESOME. I was sooooo nervous before finding Courtroom 5. My Queen and I searched everywhere and seemed to have watched every YouTube video that could’ve pertained to the case. Courtroom 5 was a lifesaver. From the helpful and timely responses to the readily available templates and case law searches, Courtroom 5 was exactly what we needed. THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!

— WJB

This site is very helpful to someone like me who does not have the financial means to pay for legal fees. My husband just got laid off from his current job, so paying for Attorney’s fees is not an option anymore. Your site is one of my sources of courage and knowledge. I appreciate your help so much. May our good Lord continue to bless you all with knowledge and strength.

— Angela

I had a lot of “training” with the most incredible paralegal on Earth for years. But all that was 10 years ago so I forgot a LOT. He was my best friend and I looked at him as the brother I never had. He had one major issue-Heroin. He died in 2017. Courtroom5 MORE than replaces that man and I LOVE LOVE LOVE this website and the weekly webinars. I know there is a LOT of work for me to do in this one legal case regarding ownership of my home, but with Courtroom5 as a learning tool, I feel rejuvenated and enthusiastic instead of sad apprehensive! Thank you ladies for all your effort in a badly needed field. I gave you 5 stars!!!!!

— Lord

Hello, Courtroom5 was a game changer in for me. I did all the work, study, and writing; but using Courtroom5 was huge for me and I am sure it will be huge for you. My case, where I was the defendant, is now dismissed with prejudice and without cost. The plaintiff was seeking up to $312,000 in damages. The plaintiff has a large staff of attorneys that I prevailed against without stepping into the courtroom one time in basically three months time. Courtroom5 is a powerful tool that assisted me in my victory.

What got me to my victory? My faith, reading, studying, and learning that I applied based on the courses I first studied here at Courtroom5 through being a member. It required me to dig in and never say “I can’t”. A quote I use daily is from former USN SEAL Alden Mills, “Nothing is ever accomplished by those who say “I can’t”.” You are in a real no holds barred fight right now. Determine the battle victory in your mind today, because SunTzu was correct when he said “the battle is won in the mind before stepping out on to the battlefield.” You can win your battle. Determine what your victory looks like and envision it. Courtroom5 can help you achieve your victory, but you will have to fight your battle and put in the time, effort, and WORK to achieve YOUR VICTORY.

— James

You have really helped in boosting my confidence.  It has been eye-opening to hear on the topic of strategy.  I feel more prepared to deal with my opponent’s position.  I now know that the opposing party’s motivation to delay the legal process is common and he has chosen this – simply because he has no other defense.  This has allowed me to remain even-tempered and excepting.  I feel better knowing that judges are aware of these tactics as well. 

— Elizabeth

I would recommend Court Room 5 to anyone facing a legal issue.  That means everyone, because lawyers are not there to help you or their clients.

— Jerry

Excellent program that’s getting better every day. Couldn’t do it without them.

— Stacey

I am so happy and thankful that I came across COURTROOM5 today! I am in the middle of a custody battle and I have never had to go to court except one time and it was short but my opposing party had a lawyer and I did not and it was no fun; to say the least. The lawyer pretty much chewed me up and spit me out and the judge just stopped it and the case was denied and closed quickly thank god. So I have been very stressed on how to to write up documents and how to go about the whole thing but now I have this awesome tool!!!

— Rian

I am thankful I stumbled across this site. Even with an attorney, the things taught and available here are useful. We have had three! attorneys burn us and knowing what to do and how and when and what should be happening, even when represented is the same very important skillset as being pro se.

— Lisa

Great information! Very informative on how to use all the weapons and tools.

— Elijah

The workshops give me a lot more confidence walking into court. Their instruction and advice are very sound and extremely helpful! I am very pleased with the assistance they are providing!

— Lee-Anna

It’s the very best resource I’ve found to help a Pro Se litigant. It provides you with a guide to assure you’ve got all the elements needed to make a claim, how to defend yourself, and common issues pro se litigants deal with. There’s a community of experienced pro se litigants who you can ask about problems in your case. There’s classes to teach you legal writing, research, and case strategy. I recommend this service to people all the time. Any serious pro se litigant should have Courtroom5.

— Marie

Very valuable information, You need as much as you can get in the courtroom.

— Doris

Courtroom5 is a survival tool everyone MUST have. It levels the legal playing field, by providing educational classes, tools, and the confidence to address your legal concerns. Even if you hire an attorney, it is important to understand your case and the workings of the legal system. That knowledge will save you time, frustration, and money on fees. The support behind the platform is second to none.

— DL

This is an excellent resource for individuals who are not attorneys but still need legal assistance.

— Kevin

Extremely pleased and impressed with this Business . I highly recommend court room 5.

— Maja

Being a pro-se litigant and doing your own legal research can be confusing and overwhelming. I found Courtroom5 while researching my case and their service has become an invaluable go-to resource of legal information, research, custom legal forms and most importantly, step by step guidance that I haven’t been able to find elsewhere. They offer a minimum monthly subscription that provides access to a bevy of resources, legal forms, samples, Q&A, and self-help tools for pro-se litigants, and offer optional add on services like one on one coaching, document review, or legal consultation, which is nice because you don’t need to pay for services you don’t need. I’ve used the coaching services a few times and the staff is very professional, knowledgeable and patient in understanding the needs and answering the questions of pro-se litigants like myself. They fulfill much a needed service and have empowered me to present myself confidently and efficiently in court, which makes a huge difference in the success of any case.

— Thomas

Court Room 5 is literally one of the best-kept secrets on the planet! And I look forward to when many more folks are aware of this powerful pro se’ tool that’s readily available. The founders of Court Room 5 and their paralegals are incredibly knowledgeable and empowering. They were so instrumental in helping me navigate from which documents to use to showing me how to access various case laws, and how to present my case like a professional: PREPARED. There were moments of defeat, but after speaking with Sonja and learning how to conduct my research, I felt empowered and confident. She is also a wonderful sound-board! She will not give you legal advice, but her practice sessions are extremely helpful. Those sessions were key to helping me stay on track when presenting my argument. Because of CourtRoom 5, I filed an awesome response to my Ex’s Rule Cause. And when I did hire an attorney, my attorney was very impressed w/my filing and WON my case as a result!


— Josette

Expeditious and helpful replies for assistance. Extremely reasonable monthly fees. Wide range of how to get started, either as plaintiff or defendant, and into the midst of battle. Confidence builders, videos and podcasts on line for easy and when needed access.



— Frank

Everyone, you NEED Courtroom5. Their “Law” tab is by itself incredibly invaluable. Read what other higher courts have opined in the exact or very similar cases to yours – or read what the higher courts have opined on some elements which match your case. That’s critical to do, as it’ll equip you with powerful citations to put in your motions and petitions. Thanks, Courtroom5!

Are We A Good Fit? Read the FAQs

Does this work for my type of case? +

If your opponent has an attorney and you don’t, you’re outmatched.
