How It Works

From intake to filing.

Legal Self-Rep is designed as a legal information navigator, not a legal advice provider. Every feature reflects this distinction.

The three steps

  1. 01

    Tell us about your matter

    After registration, you answer a few plain-language questions about your situation, your jurisdiction, and what has happened so far. Before you pay anything, we run a limitations check to flag potential deadline concerns based on the date you provide.

  2. 02

    Sunny or Jerry walks you through the process

    Choose your navigator. Sunny is warm, methodical, and patient. Jerry is energetic, empathetic, and direct. Both are navigators — not lawyers, not advisors. They explain procedure, identify forms, and show you what to expect at each stage. They do not advise on strategy or recommend choices.

  3. 03

    You file. You understand the steps. You stay in control.

    You complete your own forms, gather your own evidence, and file everything yourself. Legal Self-Rep provides structured templates, checklists, and court location information. Every decision is yours.

Pathway Options

Three ways forward.

After intake and initial navigation overview, you are presented with three pathway options. These are options, not recommendations. No pathway is labeled "recommended."

A

Self-Navigation

You work through the complete procedural walkthrough with Sunny or Jerry. You gather your own documents, complete your own forms, and file everything yourself. Legal Self-Rep provides the procedural map and checklist.

Best suited for: LTB matters, Small Claims under $10,000, ESA complaints, selected administrative matters.

B

Hybrid Support

You work through the procedural walkthrough with Sunny or Jerry. At key decision points, you can request a bounded consultation with a licensed professional from the Legal Self-Rep Professional Resources network. You pay only for what you use.

Best suited for: More complex matters within the launch areas, matters where the other party has legal representation.

C

Professional Referral

Your matter is beyond the platform's current scope, or you decide you want full professional representation. Legal Self-Rep helps you organize your materials and connects you with a licensed professional from the Professional Resources network.

Best suited for: Matters outside launch areas, or when you prefer full representation.

What the workflow does — and does not do

The workflow does

  • Show you what each field in each form means
  • Explain what kind of information goes in each field
  • Provide examples of neutral, illustrative language
  • Give you a checklist so nothing is missed
  • Link to the official form on the official court or tribunal website

The workflow does NOT

  • Complete forms on your behalf
  • Pre-fill forms with your specific facts
  • Draft arguments or advocacy content
  • Tell you what position to take
  • Predict what outcome to expect
