ACCESSIBILITY

Built to be used by everyone.

People come to CourtClarity during some of the hardest weeks of their lives, often on a phone, sometimes with a disability, always under pressure. Accessibility is not a feature we add at the end. It is part of being usable at all.

OUR STANDARD

Conformance target

CourtClarity is designed and built to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA — the standard referenced by the Americans with Disabilities Act for web content. We review the public site and the platform tools against that standard and fix what falls short.

Keyboard access

Every link, button, menu, and form field can be reached and operated with a keyboard alone. A skip link at the top of each page jumps straight to the main content, and focus is always visible.

Screen reader support

Pages use real headings, landmarks, labels, and lists rather than visual-only markup. Menus announce whether they are open, form fields are tied to their labels, and status messages are announced when they change.

Readable contrast

Body text, labels, and interface controls meet the WCAG 2.1 AA contrast minimums, including teal text on our dark navy surfaces. Information is never conveyed by color alone.

Zoom and reflow

Layouts reflow without loss of content at 200% zoom and on narrow mobile screens, and text can be enlarged through browser settings rather than a fixed pixel size.

Motion control

If your device requests reduced motion, automatic animations and carousel rotation stop. The carousel can also be paused or stepped through manually at any time.

Clear forms

Every field has a persistent visible label, required fields are marked in text, and errors and confirmations are announced to assistive technology rather than shown only in color.

IN PROGRESS

Known limitations

We would rather tell you where we are not yet finished than claim a standard we have not fully met. These are the areas we are actively working on.

  • Documents you upload — court orders, screenshots, letters — are processed as-is. If a source document is an image without text, its contents may not be available to a screen reader. We are working toward accessible text extraction for uploaded files.
  • Third-party checkout is handled by Stripe on their own pages. We do not control the accessibility of that flow, though Stripe publishes its own accessibility conformance work.
  • Downloadable PDF reports are generated from your records. We are improving tagging and reading order in those exports; until then, the same information is available on screen in each tool.
  • Guided AI conversations produce plain text answers. They are optimized for clarity, but they are not a substitute for reading the underlying record, and they are not reviewed by an attorney.

Tell us if something is in your way

If any part of CourtClarity is difficult to use — with a screen reader, a keyboard, magnification, voice control, or anything else — tell us what happened and what you were trying to do. We will respond, and where the problem is in our product, we will fix it. If you need information from this site in a different format, ask and we will provide it.

SAFETY AND CRISIS RESOURCES

If you are in danger or thinking about suicide, get help now.

CourtClarity is legal information and organizational software. It is not an emergency service, a crisis hotline, or a risk-assessment tool. Nothing it generates can keep you or your children safe, and no document it drafts replaces a protective order or the advice of a local advocate or attorney.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

National Domestic Violence Hotline

Call 1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788thehotline.org

SUICIDAL THOUGHTS OR CRISIS

988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline

Call or text 988, free and confidential, 24/7988lifeline.org

In immediate danger, call 911 or your local emergency number. If your matter involves violence, threats, or immediate risk to a child, contact a local domestic violence advocate or an attorney before relying on these tools, and tell the court.
