Gotchas - check before you buy

high

Forms suit uncontested matters; contested custody or divorce needs hired counsel

medium

Court costs still apply: filing fees plus service fees, roughly $100 in some counties

medium

Content is general legal information, not advice for your specific facts

low

Third-party Tidio chat (256-bit encrypted); check privacy policy before sharing case details

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Completely free: articles, court forms, guided interviews, and legal-aid directory
  • Recommended by Texas counties and courts as an official self-help resource
  • Directory connects users to free and low-cost legal aid programs
  • Guided forms walk self-represented filers through paperwork step by step
  • Widely recommended on Reddit for DIY divorce and child-support guidance

  • Structured review coverage is thin and mostly anecdotal
  • Some DIY divorce filers still struggle completing documents
