This is a great resource for accessible court forms. Thank you @margarethagan and @LegalDesignLab for sharing.
Do you work on court or government #forms?
The @LegalDesignLab has a Design Rubric for you to spot how to make them more accessible & effective

We developed a data standard to help local courts supply both search engines and state websites with up-to-date official information. @LegalDesignLab graciously allowed our own Brian Guayante to write about it on A Better Legal Internet. Read more here: betterinternet.law.stanford.…

About to talk through how researchers can use the @leagueofcities new #Eviction Prevention Policy & Programs Tool -- along with city leaders to talk through how they can use it to develop policy agendas.

Other helpful form design tips:
✔️Avoid placing too much text on a single page. A wall of text is stressful.
✔️White space helps guide users to important information, encourages users to keep reading and gives the brain a break.
✔️Font size is vital to ensure readability.

What visual elements should #courts use in form design? All the below.
Tip: Place the right information in the right location. Compose your form from the top left corner for highest priority. Make the form "glance-able," so that a user can understand the form in under a minute.
Legal Design Lab retweeted
To create better forms, #courts need to view forms from the user's perspective. A successful court form should be engaging, strategic and comprehensive. It should also be easily accessible.

For many, forms are the entry point to the civil legal system. Yet, #court form development and design can sometimes be overlooked.
A successful form is an access to justice key, helping users participate in the court system.
