Built by someone who had to do it himself.

Robert Ramirez didn't plan to become his own lawyer.

In 2022, the Texas Department of Public Safety denied his locksmith license because of a felony record from when he was 19. Texas had passed a law in 2019, HB 1342, so that people with a record get a fair, individual look before a license is denied.

Robert read the law, built his case, and represented himself before the State Office of Administrative Hearings. In 2024 the judge recommended his license be granted, and DPS reinstated it. He has run a licensed business ever since.

He's also a father who has been through more than one family court case, and he has spent more than $80,000 on lawyers and court costs to protect his rights as a parent, more than $60,000 of it in one case. Today he has primary custody of that child.

Along the way he learned what most people learn too late: the system is hard to navigate, deadlines are unforgiving, and paying for help doesn't guarantee anyone is keeping track. When he couldn't count on anyone else, he learned to do it himself.

Built from necessity

When Robert went looking for help, he found two kinds of tools. Template sites were made for paperwork like forming a company or writing a contract, not for answering a lawsuit with a deadline running. Court self-help centers and legal aid do good work, but they have waitlists and income limits, and many working people earn too much to qualify and too little to pay a lawyer by the hour.

So the work fell to him: reading the rules, counting the days, writing the filings, and checking every citation himself. ProSeFiler turns what he had to learn the hard way into tools anyone can use from a phone.

Why ProSeFiler

ProSeFiler is the tool he wished he’d had: a calm, private place to draft filings and keep deadlines and proof in order, for anyone standing in front of a judge without a lawyer.

• Your case is yours. It stays encrypted on your device. We never see it.
• Plain English. No legalese, no pressure, no promises about outcomes.
• Organized beats overwhelmed. Most cases are lost on paperwork and missed dates, not on the facts.

ProSeFiler is self-help software, not a law firm, and it doesn't give legal advice. Robert's results are his own; every case is different. If you can, talk to a lawyer or legal aid.
