VIRTUAL HELP CENTER FOR

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS

Please note that this information applies only to the Court of Common Pleas General Division. For help regarding a municipal case, you can visit the Help Center or the Self- Help Center for a domestic relations matter.
Court Staff cannot provide legal advice
Court staff cannot discuss your case without the opposing side present as that would be an ex parte communication.
Keep updated contact information with the Hamilton County Clerk of Courts so the Courtroom can contact you, if needed. File a notification form.
You may represent yourself; however, you are expected to have knowledge of the law and legal procedure. A self-represented litigant is subject to the same standards as those represented by an attorney. Fontain v. Sandhu, 2021-Ohio-2750, ¶ 13 (1st Dist.).
