They lose because they miss a step, file the wrong form, or show up with messy evidence.
ClaimKit replaces confusion with a simple system you can follow from start to finish.ClaimKit replaces confusion with a clear, step-by-step system.

How ClaimKit Works

  • Phase 1: Pre court resolution - Send the right demand letter, follow up correctly, and attempt a clean settlement path.

  • Phase 2: Case preparation - Build your evidence set, label exhibits, and create a simple index that judges can follow.

  • Phase 3: Filing and court - Understand what to file, where to file, and how to show up prepared for the hearing.

  • Phase 4: After judgment - Know what happens next and what options exist if you win and need to collect.

You move step by step. No guessing. No scattered tabs. No missing pieces.
