The Litigant Portal Is Looking for Its First Court Partners Free Law Project has released an RFP for the founding court cohort of the Litigant Portal, a guided legal navigation platform for self-represented litigants. Letters of interest are due May 1, 2026.

Do you know a decision-maker in a court, like a judge or chief executive? If so, please encourage them to join us in the development of a new tool to help self-represented litigants find justice.

We're using a micro-RFP to identify the right court partners. Please share! free.law/2026/03/31/l...
