This is why plain language and accessibility are at the core of all our work, but it's a long road ahead on court forms.

I'm filling out a few legal forms personally, and it's INSANE the extent to which we use legal jargon. I was a paralegal at an AmLaw and am a #legaltech founder, and I still don't understand half of this. Genuine question... who do we talk to about changing this?

1/11 In our quest to modernize the justice system, we cannot forget the importance of online forms. Forms play a critical role in many aspects of the justice system; guilty pleas, diversion referrals, check-ins, intake, jury selection, etc. The use cases are limitless.


We were honored to present at the Oklahoma Affordable Housing Conference yesterday - thanks to @big_if_true_ for their coverage of the panels discussing eviction prevention! bigiftrue.org/2022/09/29/evi…


Thrilled to see our work cited by the @TWOpinion team in today's editorial.

"Glaring divides are among rural and urban courtrooms and among those who cannot afford representation ... lawmakers have a responsibility to ensure all Oklahomans are treated fairly." tulsaworld.com/opinion/editor…



Happy to see our work cited by our friends at @OKPolicy Policy Matters: More protections needed for Oklahoma renters journalrecord.com/2022/09/07/pol…

Court-related fees and fines exacerbate poverty and often result in incarceration. NCSC's Blueprint for Racial Justice offers #courts guidance on bail and pretrial reforms. Watch our new #NCSCWebinar on court fees: vimeo.com/699466046. Via @njdotcom nj.com/opinion/2022/0…
