A trial is a relatively uncommon thing in our legal system. Thousands of legal cases are filed each day, but nearly all of them are settled out of court, between the people involved. In cases that are “administrative” in nature, no substantive issues need to be resolved, the parties are in agreement and do not require legal advice, legal representation is not always required - there is no trial, and no disputing issues in a courtroom. What is required, however, is that you prepare your documents in the correct format and in some cases, the Court will require that you present and/or file "Supreme Court" approved forms and have knowledge of the filing procedures. Since it is not common for the general public to have both the knowledge to complete the required documents and/or forms in proper format and of Court filing procedures, some times it is necessary to seek the help of a document preparer.
