California courts are made up of a complex multi-level system and each court has its own unique rules.  Due to this complex system, it can be easy for you (the self-represented) to get lost, make mistakes, miss a deadline, and ultimately lose your matter.  The court records are packed with lost cases due to a self-represented party’s failure to comply with these complex rules.

          If you cannot afford an attorney, Mendo Legal Document Services can help you gain the basics that you will need to navigate the courtroom.  We can provide you with information, which has been reviewed and approved by attorneys. Most importantly, we can create your legal documents with accuracy and a professional look, so that when you file the documents with the court, you demonstrate to your opponent, and to the court, that you are prepared to handle your own legal matter.  If you want to represent yourself in court,  Mendo Legal Document Services is here to help you.  We can provide the guidance and document preparation you need to succeed!

           We are bonded and registered with the County of Mendocino as Legal Document Assistants  (Reg. No. LDA-15) and Registered Process Servers (Reg. No. MC-84). We can assist the self-represented individual with their legal matter from beginning to end.  While the law allows LDA’s to perform these acts, we are not an attorney.  We can only provide self-help services at your specific direction.  Thus, you are in charge and maintain control over your case
