What TurboCourt is
TurboCourt is a web service that guides users through questions, prepares court forms, and supports filing and next steps. It covers court services in multiple states, but available cases and filing options vary by jurisdiction. Listed matters include small claims, landlord-tenant disputes, and family law. Generated forms are Acrobat PDFs; where e-filing is available, filings can be delivered electronically. Depending on the court, users may instead print forms for filing in person or by mail. The Florida Small Claims print service is print-only, so users must submit forms to the clerk themselves. A free account can save questionnaire answers and form sets for use on connected devices. Registered users can set email preferences, track filing status, and access court messages and e-served documents where available. TurboCourt is paid, with service fees separate from court filing fees; costs depend on the service and jurisdiction, and extra online payment fees may apply. The site says stored information is encrypted and offers a customer service email for data-deletion requests.
