Legal Support for Pro Se California Cases
You may not need full-scope representation to move your family law case forward.
I offer flat-fee, limited-scope legal support for people representing themselves in California family court—so you can get clear guidance, court-ready documents, or strategic help when you need it, without giving up control of your case.
We’ll start with a Free Fit Check to figure out what level of support actually makes sense for where your case is right now.
Court-Ready Documents
If you’re representing yourself in California family court, getting the paperwork right matters. This service is for people who want their documents prepared carefully, filed correctly, and ready for court—without full-scope representation.
Choose the level of support that fits your situation:
-
Document Preparation Only
You know what you need filed and just want it done correctly. I’ll prepare court-ready family law forms based on the information you provide—no coaching required. -
Strategy + Documents
If you’re unsure what to file or when, we’ll start with a strategy session. Then I’ll draft the documents and guide you through next steps so you’re not guessing.
This service works best for people who are organized, responsive, and prepared to participate actively in their case. If your case becomes more complex, we can discuss additional limited-scope support.
Flat-fee pricing starts at $799.
A Free Fit Check is required before booking.

What This Support Is
This is limited-scope, flat-fee legal support for people representing themselves in California Family Court.
It’s designed for people who want:
✔ Clear guidance on what the court expects
✔ Court-ready documents
✔ Strategic help before filings or hearings
You stay in control of your case. I work behind the scenes to help you prepare, make informed decisions, and show up confident and organized.
What This Support Isn’t
This is not full-scope legal representation -- and that's intentional.
I don’t:
✕ Appear in court for you
✕ Communicate with opposing counsel for you
✕ Take over your case or make decisions for you
✕ Promise specific outcomes
This model works best for people who are willing to participate actively in their case and want professional support without handing everything over.

That’s exactly what the Free Fit Check is for.
How We Figure Out the Right Level of Support
You don’t have to know exactly what you need before reaching out.
During your Free Fit Check, we’ll talk through:
-
Where your case stands right now
-
What’s coming up next in court
-
What kind of support would actually help at this stage
From there, I’ll recommend a level of flat-fee, limited-scope support that fits your situation — whether that’s document help, strategy, hearing prep, or a combination.
No pressure.
No upselling.
Just an honest assessment of what makes sense for your case.
