Pro Se Litigator Plan
Pro se means “for oneself” in Latin, but it doesn’t mean you don’t need help. With Courtroom5, you’ll get the help you need and go to court ready for battle, every time.
Be a PRO at being pro se
The Pro Se Litigator Plan is your ticket to effective management of your case. It includes:
- automated guidance on your options so you can make the best decisions at every step in your case;
- training on the realities of complex litigation so you avoid the mistakes and traps pro se litigants often experience;
- several guided documents, like a Designation of Email Address for Service, a Motion for Extension of Time, a Proposed Order, a Notice of Hearing, and others;
- a monthly live workshop for pro se litigants and get your questions answered by people who’ve been in your shoes.
Purchase more complex guided documents as needed. (See FAQs below for a listing of complex document options.) Hire legal professionals from our network for small tasks, from a consultation with a lawyer to a hearing transcribed by a court reporter.

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. The lawyer representing your opponent has a graduate education in the law, years of practice on the types of claims in your case, and relationships with judges and court personnel. Courtroom5 is designed to help people without lawyers overcome these advantages so you can get a fair hearing in court.
Courtroom5 has helped people handle foreclosures, debt collection, high-conflict divorce, child custody, probate, and other matters that rely on the rules of civil procedure. Criminal cases, traffic tickets, small claims, and evictions are not well suited to Courtroom5.
