For people representing themselves

You're Not Losing Because You're Wrong. You're Losing Because Nobody Taught You the Rules.

Courts don't run on who's right. They run on procedure and the rules of evidence, the things nobody teaches you until it's too late. This is the shortcut: the exact rules and tactics that decide cases, in plain English, so you walk in prepared instead of overwhelmed.

Show Me How to Win in Court

You're in the right. You know you are. But you're staring at a stack of forms, a deadline you don't understand, and the other side has a lawyer who does this every day. You can't afford $300 an hour. And everything you read basically says good luck, you're going to lose.

Here's the part nobody tells you.

Most people who lose in court don't lose because they were wrong. They lose because they broke a rule they didn't know existed. They had the evidence but couldn't get it admitted. They had the argument but filed the wrong motion, or filed it late. The system isn't rigged against the truth. It's rigged against people who don't know the procedure. That's a fixable problem.

What Jurisdictionary actually is

Jurisdictionary is a self-paced course that teaches the rules and tactics that win, step by step:

A few hours of video and audio, plus the sample forms and resources to use as you go.

Built by Frederick Graves, a practicing attorney for 40 years, and taught since 1997.

Who this is for if you're representing yourself in court

What you're probably thinking

Isn't representing yourself a terrible idea?

Yes, if you walk in blind. That's exactly the problem this fixes. You go in knowing the rules the other side is counting on you not knowing.

It's too technical, there are too many forms.

That's the point of a course. It breaks the procedure into steps instead of leaving you to decode it alone at 2am.

I can't afford anything right now.

One year of full access is $249, less than a single hour with most attorneys, and it comes with a 24-hour money-back guarantee.

Common questions about representing yourself in court

What happens if you're sued and can't afford a lawyer?

You can represent yourself, which is known as appearing pro se. Courts allow it in civil cases. The catch is that you are held to the same procedural rules as a lawyer, which is why learning those rules ahead of time makes such a difference.

Can you win a case representing yourself in court?

Yes, people do it every day. Winning usually comes down to understanding court procedure and the rules of evidence, not just being right. That is exactly what this course is built to teach.

How do you respond to a lawsuit on your own?

Generally you file the response the court requires by the deadline printed on your summons. The exact steps vary by court, so read your summons and your local court rules carefully.

How much does it cost to learn to represent yourself?

Jurisdictionary is $249 for a full year of access, with a 24-hour money-back guarantee. That is less than a single hour with most attorneys.
