Portia isn't open yet. It's a tool for organising your case when you're handling a civil dispute in England and Wales, whether you're representing yourself or dealing with a dispute as a business. Join the waitlist and we'll let you know when it opens.
Who it's for
The waitlist is open to individuals and small businesses handling a civil dispute in England and Wales.
Individuals bringing or defending a civil claim on their own.
Small and medium-sized businesses dealing with a civil matter, such as an unpaid invoice or a contract that has gone wrong.
Anyone working on a letter before action, particulars of claim, or a defence.
Anyone who wants their evidence and timeline in order before a next step.
The form
What happens next
We're opening access gradually as Portia is ready. When you join, we'll email you about next steps and availability. Portia is being built carefully, so this takes time, and we'd rather do it properly than rush it.
Portia helps you prepare and organise your case. It is not a law firm, it does not give legal advice, and it does not replace a solicitor or barrister. You remain responsible for the decisions and submissions in your case.
