Know the whole number first

Most eviction firms publish a teaser fee and bill the court costs back later. We show your county’s actual charges next to our fee, before you type your name.

Your exact price, before you give us a name

Attorney fee — flat$1,000
Harris County court costs$324
Estimated total — costs itemized and passed through at cost$1,324

Court charges are set by the court and verified at attorney review; if your county's actual costs differ, you pay the actual, never more than quoted without your OK.

Then watch it move

This is the actual tracker your case gets — stage by stage, with countdowns during waiting windows, documents in your vault, and a text at every milestone.

Tenant answer window: 6 days remaining. Most tenants don’t respond — if that happens, we request default judgment the next business day. No action needed from you.

Compliance is the product

CARES Act screening, servicemember (SCRA) verification before any default, state-mandated notice forms generated from the statute, and rent-demand validation. These are the mistakes that get DIY and filing-mill cases dismissed.

Decisions in one tap

Tenant offered partial payment? Moved out mid-case? You get the options and the consequences in plain English, in your portal, on the record. No phone tag.

Built for portfolios

One login, every property, every case. Property managers: in Washington your entity clients legally need counsel — ask about volume accounts and white-label intake.
