**Obtaining Family Law Documents

If you already have a family law case open, you will have to bring the most recent orders and any current filings available with you to our legal aid clinic when you meet with our family law team.

If you do not already have these documents in your possession you can get copies of these documents from the courthouse.

You will have to go to the courthouse where the case is filed. There is a fee per page, be prepared to pay the court for copies.
