Answer simple questions
Start with names and contact details, then tell us about the situation. Type, chat, or talk. Ask the helper to explain any question that is unclear.
How it works
Know what to expect before you start.
Answer questions, check your draft, and download your papers. You can take a break along the way.
Check the actual papers
See your answers on the forms. Check papers shows what is missing. Review the details and fix anything that is wrong.
Download and plan your filing
Once the required answers and review steps are complete, download your PDF. Use the filing guide and confirm the next steps with the clerk.
Preparing papers is not the same as filing.
FileMyTRO does not file with a court or give legal advice. It cannot promise that a court will accept the papers or grant an order. Only a court can issue an order.

Can I stop and come back?
Wait for “Saved,” then return in the same browser. On a private device, you can create a one-use return code under Check papers. It opens all your saved cases on another device and expires after one day. Keep the code private.
Can someone help me check my answers?
You can choose to create a view-only link. Anyone with it can view that case’s answers and papers until it expires or you turn it off. Share it only with someone you trust. Turning it off cannot erase copies they already saved.
What if I am not done?
Use Check papers to see missing answers. You can save a draft answer summary for your own review. That summary is not a court form and is not ready to file.
Which languages can I use?
The chat and voice helper can use English, Spanish, or French. Form screens and court papers are in English. Language support does not replace a court interpreter.
Will you send me messages?
We do not send text messages or make phone calls. Voice help uses your microphone in your browser. Quick exit leaves the site, but it does not clear browser history.
Take the next step at your pace.
Start with what you know. Check your answers before you download.
