Your questions, answered

Is this legal advice?

No. This is a detailed review of court records — information to help you and a lawyer decide what to do next. We are not a law firm, and no attorney-client relationship is created. We never recommend filing anything on your own; a report is something to take to a lawyer.

Couldn't I just upload the record to ChatGPT?

You can upload the files — the problem is what happens next. Nothing checks the chatbot's answer against the record, so a made-up quote or a wrong page number looks exactly like a real one, and it only looks for the problems you already know to ask about. Our system runs six checks a Texas post-conviction lawyer would run, on every page, and every finding must carry the exact words from your record — then each quote is re-checked against the document before you see it. Anything that fails is removed. In Texas, the first writ is effectively the only writ; that's why the checking matters more than the reading.

What if the news is bad?

We tell you straight, with dignity, and there is always a next step — whatever we find, including nothing.

What documents do I need — and what if I can't get them?

After you buy, a short interview builds your personal checklist, and every item comes with "here’s how to get it" guidance. If there was a direct appeal, the trial transcript usually already exists. Our free guide explains each document, what it looks like, and what it costs.

Who sees our records?

Your records are encrypted, seen only by our review team, kept 12 months, and deleted sooner on request.

How long does it take?

Your review clock starts when your documents are complete — we tell you the moment that happens, and we email you at every step.

¿Está disponible en español?

Sí — toque «Español» arriba y todo el sitio cambia de idioma. Su reporte se entrega en inglés por ahora; la versión en español viene pronto.

How long does the review take?

Ten business days from the moment you tell us your records are complete — most arrive sooner. You can watch live progress the whole way, including which checks have finished.

What file formats can I send?

PDFs and phone photos (JPG, PNG, iPhone HEIC, TIFF). You can also put everything in one ZIP file and send it in a single upload — we open it, read every document, and tell you if anything inside couldn’t be used.

What happens if you find nothing?

The report says so, plainly, and explains what we checked. A clear "nothing strong here" protects your family from spending thousands chasing weak claims — that is real information, and it is treated with the same care as any other result.

What happens to our documents and data?

Your files are stored encrypted, they remain downloadable by you at any time, and deletion is available on request. We never sell your information. The details live in our Privacy page and Disclosures.

Can I pay in installments?

Yes — Affirm and Klarna are available at checkout, through Stripe.

What if I upload documents and then find more?

Uploading is free and unlimited before you start the review — take weeks if you need. After a report is delivered, running a fresh analysis that includes newly found documents costs $99.
