Built to work alongside legal support.
CourtPrep is designed to complement the support already provided by lawyers, clinics and other organisations working with people attending civil hearings.
It gives people a private space to become familiar with the hearing experience, while leaving legal advice and the substance of the case where they belong: with the legal professionals supporting them.
Our story
CourtPrep grew out of years spent working alongside people facing courts and tribunals.
We saw how much work can go into the legal side of a case, while the hearing itself can still feel completely unfamiliar to the person at the centre of it.
CourtPrep was built to give people somewhere private to experience that environment, find their footing and feel more comfortable with what lies ahead.
Sometimes, simply knowing what an experience feels like can make it easier to navigate.
Familiarity with the experience
Know how it feels
Experience the pace, formality and interaction of a simulated hearing in your own time.
Find your footing
Go through the experience at your own pace, so it starts to feel familiar.
Reflect afterwards
See simple observations about how you communicated, such as your pace or filler words, without judging what you said.
