Online forms are not a new technology, and, although they have gained acceptance in the realm of self-help centers and for use by self-represented litigants, attorney and pro bono attorney use of online forms lags. In this workshop, we will share outcomes of a recent study that outlines barriers to adoption of online forms by attorneys in legal nonprofits, and we will share opportunities and sample projects that are successfully using online forms as part of their routine legal work to better support lawyers and clients and to close gaps in services.
