IF THESE INSTRUCTIONS DON'T MATCH WHAT YOU SEE ON YOUR SCREEN...

You may be using our older Legacy website. To access those instructions, click here.

 

Registration is free; it costs nothing to create an efiling account.

For more information about registering a Firm account, please select one of the following options:

• For Most States
• For Louisiana

 

 

FOR MOST STATES

To locate your state's eFile website, visit www.filenow.me, then scroll down and select your state. Once done, select eFile & Serve (see below).

 

 

The main landing page will provide an option to register for Firm Account (Attorney account).

Note for Out-of-State/Pro-Hac Attorneys: If you register for a Firm account, the site will require an in-state bar number. If the state has not provided you with a bar number, then you will need to register as a Self-Represented/Individual account.

Attorneys / attorney staff / Legal Professional will register for a Firm Account. This account allows for multiple users and will require at least one attorney for that state. (Please make sure a Firm account hasn't already been created within your Firm. If your Firm does have an account, please ask your Firm Admin to invite you into the account). 

Click Register to begin creating the Firm Account.

Complete all fields marked with a asterisk*. 

• The email address will be the user ID that you will use to login to the website.
• The password must be 8 characters long, include a capital letter and at least one number. 
• Please Note: If you enter a P.O. Box as your address, leave out the periods and enter the phrase "P.O. Box" as "PO Box". This is purely for registration purposes; Tyler Technologies will NOT send you any mail.

Check the box to agree to the Terms and Conditions.

Click Register.

An activation email will be sent to the email registered. 

Note: You do not have to register an account for each county separately. Once you're registered on the state's website, you can file into any county that's listed on the website.

FOR LOUISIANA

If you are a legal professional, please note that before you register for a Firm Account, please check with your firm to ensure an account has not already been created. If your firm has already been created, please ask your firm administrator to invite you to join the firm. 

If you have multiple locations for your firm, it is up to you if you wish to register all employees under one firm account, or have separate firm accounts. However, an email address can only be registered with one firm account.

Out of state attorneys or Pro-hac attorneys, if you register for a Firm account, the site will require a state bar number. If the state has not provided you with that bar number, then register as a Self-Represented/Individual account.
