Court-ordered programs

Proof of attendance, organized.

Did the court or your probation officer ask you to prove you went to meetings, classes or community service? CaseFill fills in your name and case on clear, printable logs. Your meeting chair, provider or supervisor fills in the rest and signs.

12-step meeting log

For AA, NA, Al-Anon and other self-help meetings. The secretary or chair initials each meeting. Initials or a first name are enough, so the group stays anonymous.

Make a meeting log

Treatment and class attendance

For counseling, anger management, parenting classes, DUI programs and treatment. Your provider fills in the dates and status from their records, then signs.

Make an attendance form

Community service hours

A daily log your agency supervisor fills in and initials for each shift, then signs.

After a DUI arrest: the DMV hearing

Your license is handled by the DMV, separately from your court case, and you have only 10 days from getting the suspension notice to ask for a hearing. CaseFill fills in your details on a written hearing request (with a request for DMV's evidence) and on a request for DMV subpoenas. You sign and send them.

Request a DMV hearing Request DMV subpoenas

Also included: a letter of support, an exhibit cover sheet, and a request for more time with a proposed order. See all templates

How these forms workCaseFill fills in only your name and case details. Dates, hours, attendance and signatures must come from your program, meeting chair, supervisor or provider. Many courts and probation departments have their own forms, so ask first. These are CaseFill templates, not official court forms, and CaseFill doesn't give legal advice.

How it works

Three steps from blank forms to a packet you can file.

Answer simple questions

Tell CaseFill your situation in plain English. Each answer goes to every form that asks for it, so you type your name and case number once.

We check your work

Before you download, CaseFill looks for blank required fields, text that won't fit in a box, and private numbers that shouldn't be in a public court file.

Download your packet

Get your filled forms as PDFs in one zip, with a checklist of what to sign, file, and serve. Then you sign, file at the clerk's window or on your court's e-filing site, and have someone else serve the other side. CaseFill doesn't file for you.

Bank-vault privacy

Your case stays on your computer.

Court papers hold your address, your children's names, and your income. CaseFill is built so that none of it ever reaches us. The forms are filled by your own browser, the same way a calculator works offline. Your case is saved in your own browser, like a file on your own computer.

Nothing is uploadedYour answers and your PDFs never leave your device. Your account holds only your name and email.

Court filing fees are separate and paid to the court. If you can't afford them, CaseFill can fill out FW-001, the request to waive court fees.

Support CaseFill

Help keep CaseFill free for the people who need it.

If CaseFill helped you and you're able to, a contribution of any amount keeps the servers running and the forms up to date. It's a voluntary gift; it doesn't buy a membership or service.

You'll sign in first so we can keep a record of your contribution. Payments are handled by Stripe. CaseFill is a business, not a charity, so contributions aren't tax-deductible.
