For You · My File

Walk in ready.

The clients lawyers love arrive with a timeline, the papers in order and their questions written down. My File gives everyone that: your story, sorted and private, shared with a lawyer only when you choose.

Demojura is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.

Why It Matters

Most People Face the Law Alone, and Unprepared.

The law is hard to reach and expensive by the hour. A good part of that hour goes to sorting out what happened. A person who arrives organized costs less to help, gets better help, and is easier to say yes to.

  2. 02SortEach paper is read for its date, who sent it and what kind of paper it is.
  3. 03TimelineWhat happened, in order. Every event points to the paper that proves it.
  4. 04QuestionsWrite down what you want to ask. Nothing gets forgotten in the meeting.
  5. 05ShareChoose exactly what a firm sees. Stop sharing whenever you like.
  6. 06Hand offTo your lawyer, Legal Aid or a lawyer who takes one task at a time, with the file attached.

The Rules It Runs By

Your Story, on Your Terms.

A legal problem is private. These rules are built into the software, not printed in the fine print.

  1. I
    It is yours.

    Your file belongs to you. It is never sold, never used to train anyone’s model, and deleted when you say so.

  2. II
    You choose what is shared.

    A firm sees only what you share with it, only for as long as you allow.

  3. III
    It organizes, and leaves advice to lawyers.

    My File puts your story in order and helps you ask good questions. Advice about your matter comes from a licensed lawyer.

  4. IV
    Every event points to its proof.

    Nothing on your timeline floats free. Tap it and see the paper it came from.

  5. V
    Made for your lawyer, not a public chatbot.

    In 2026 a federal court held that one person’s own chats with a public AI tool were not privileged. My File is built so what you prepare for your lawyer goes to your lawyer. Ask your lawyer how the rules apply to you.

Made for Everyday Trouble

Whatever It Is, Start the File.

Most legal trouble starts small. A file started early is the difference between a quick answer and a long fight.

Home and leaseNotices, fines, repair requests, deposits, the lease itself.
Debt and collectionsLetters, statements, what you paid and when, any court papers.
An accidentPhotos, reports, medical bills, insurance letters, who you spoke to.
Work and payPay stubs, schedules, messages, what was promised and what was paid.
FamilyOrders, schedules, agreements, the dates that keep a plan on track.
A court dateThe citation or summons, the date, what to bring, and the questions to ask.

Both Sides of the Desk

Your File Meets Your Lawyer’s Desk.

When you share My File with a firm on Demojura, it arrives beside the firm’s own notes. Nothing retold, nothing lost between the first call and the hearing.
