Self-Help Court Assistance Office:

The Court Assistance Office provides resources, tools, and paperwork on a variety of legal topics for people who want to represent themselves in court or who can’t afford an attorney.

We can help you to review your Court Assistance paperwork for completeness and help get your forms in the proper order to file with the Ada County Clerk’s Office. For information on the filing information and fees, call (208) 287-6900 #4, from 8am-5pm, Monday to Friday.

The Court Assistance Office cannot provide legal advice or legal representation. Laws and court rules are complex.  If you can, talk to an attorney about your problem before moving forward on your own.
