Forms [.pdf ] Findlaw has recently launched an extremely useful
free site that offers almost 8,000 state and federal court forms
in .pdf format. The forms, logically enough, are grouped into
federal and state sections, the first divided by circuits, the
second by state (not all states were available at time of review).
Users who do not know their circuit court number can select it
from a map. Available forms vary by circuit or state, but most
include Bankruptcy, Civil, Criminal, Family, and Probate Courts.
Others also offer forms for Small Claims, Worker's Compensation,
Juvenile, and other Courts. Related resources and a legal dictionary
are also provided.
