Our mission

The overwhelming majority of Americans who go to court do so without a lawyer. MyGavel exists to give self-represented filers — pro per and pro se litigants — the same kind of drafting, organization, and deadline tools that used to be available only to firms that could afford expensive practice-management software.

What we build

MyGavel is a guided intake, drafting, and case-management platform. You answer plain-English questions about your case; our AI assistants help you produce organized court document drafts for your review, track upcoming deadlines, and understand the terminology and procedure involved. Where a court requires its official mandatory PDF, we generate a populated visual replica so you can copy your answers directly onto the official form before filing.

What we are not

MyGavel is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Using MyGavel does not create an attorney-client relationship. Every document is a draft that you are responsible for reviewing before you sign, serve, or file it. See our AI Disclaimer and Terms of Service for the full picture.

Who we serve

Self-represented civil litigants (small claims, unlawful detainer, contract disputes)
Family-law filers preparing petitions, responses, and post-judgment motions
Victims of abuse or harassment seeking protective orders
Attorneys, paralegals, and legal-aid staff who need a fast drafting workspace
