About this disclaimer

What's the difference?

Legal information describes how a court process generally works — filing deadlines that apply broadly, what forms exist, where to find them. It doesn’t account for the specific facts of your situation.

Legal advice is a licensed attorney applying the law to your specific facts and telling you what to do. Only a licensed attorney can do that, because they carry professional responsibility for the outcome and are bound by rules of professional conduct that protect you.

Why we can't give advice

The people who run this site are not licensed attorneys. Even if they were, giving individualized advice through a public website without knowing the full facts of a case would be irresponsible. That’s why this site sticks to general information and points you toward official sources and legal aid organizations for anything specific to your case.

Not affiliated with the court

This site is independently run and is not part of, or officially affiliated with, the New Hampshire Judicial Branch. For anything that affects your actual case — filing status, deadlines, hearings — the court’s own records and staff are the authoritative source, not this site.

How we try to keep this accurate

Court rules, forms, and procedures change over time, and this site is maintained by volunteers rather than a full-time legal staff. We do our best to keep information current and to note where things may be out of date, but we can’t guarantee that every detail on this site is current at the moment you read it. When something here seems to conflict with what a court clerk, official form, or the court’s own website tells you, treat the official source as correct and let us know so we can fix it.
