Topic selection
A page should answer a distinct user task: understanding a court paper, preparing a document set, comparing types of legal help, building a timeline, or locating an official state source. Changing only a place name or keyword is not treated as sufficient value.
Source method
- Identify the jurisdiction and official court or agency.
- Prefer current primary sources for forms, rules, program details, and safety procedures.
- Separate general preparation advice from a specific legal conclusion.
- Tell readers what must still be verified locally.
Comparing legal help
Comparison focuses on scope, licensing, relevant experience, communication, conflicts, fee structure, supervision, local procedure, and the client's practical needs. The site does not sell rankings or assign unverifiable quality scores.
Update standard
The date shown on a page reflects a content or source update. A date does not imply review by a lawyer unless a named, verifiable reviewer and scope are stated.
Verify before acting
