Host Nadia Gilkes explains why it’s essential to check the court docket and full case file after being served or when taking over a case. She shares practical steps—viewing the court portal, getting copies, contacting the clerk or previous counsel, and using fee waivers if needed—to avoid being surprised by filings the judge may reference.
This episode emphasizes staying proactive: regularly check filings up to the day of your hearing, know how to access documents, and remember that even with an attorney you should monitor your case and deadlines.
