I’ve represented myself in court, alone, without a solicitor. The system is not designed for ordinary people.

I represented myself through my own divorce in the family court, without a solicitor, against one — and, before that, through the small claims court (filmed for BBC One’s The Sheriffs Are Coming). Reading procedure rules at midnight, filling in forms that assumed I already knew the answers. I got through both, but it was harder than it needed to be.

Start My Claim compiles everything I learned into software trained on UK employment tribunal law. The ET1. The witness statement. The schedule of loss. Every document built from your answers, formatted the way tribunals expect them.

You represent yourself. You keep 100% of any award. — Paul Keene, founder
