Write to us.

Email is the only channel, and it’s deliberate. There’s no phone line to be overheard on and no form that stores what you type.

Before you write
Two things to know

We can’t answer questions about your case. Writing to us doesn’t create an attorney-client relationship, and anything you send isn’t protected the way a conversation with your own attorney would be. Keep the details out — tell us what isn’t working, not what happened in your marriage.

If you share a device or an email account with the other party, write from an address only you can reach. Our reply will say Before You File in it.

Most answers are already written down. The FAQ covers what’s included, refunds, what AutoCollect can and can’t reach, and how storage works.

In an emergency

We’re not an emergency service and we don’t monitor email overnight. If someone in your household is making you afraid, the resource guide lists the numbers that answer 24 hours.

Before You File™ is operated by Before You File, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. It is educational preparation material for Florida residents. It is not legal advice about your situation, it doesn’t create an attorney-client relationship, and it can’t tell you how your case will turn out. If you can’t afford an attorney, contact your local legal aid office or the Florida Bar Lawyer Referral Service at 1-800-342-8011.
