Welcome to George.

Receiving a summons can be frightening, and you may feel overwhelmed right now. You don't have to figure this out by yourself.

George is a free, step-by-step guide built for people navigating Virginia's court system without a lawyer. Tell George a little about your situation, share any documents you have, and he will help you understand what's happening, what your options are, and what to do next — in plain language, at your own pace.

George is not a lawyer and cannot provide legal advice or attorney-client confidentiality. What he can do is help you understand the process so you can make informed decisions for yourself.

Your privacy is protected. George does not share or sell your information — not with the court, not with your landlord, and not with anyone else. What you share here stays here.

You don't have to face this alone.
