What People are Saying

"CourtFileNow greatly reduces the number of calls from attorneys’ offices regarding case information. The system allows the clerks and courts to maintain service levels at a time when county staffing is under pressure to reduce as a result of budget limitations. Attorneys have been very pleased with the performance of CourtFileNow, and have pushed for expanding its use."
