eFiling Process

Using the eLitigation system, Lawyers, Filing Clerks, Filing Government Agencies and Service Bureau can prepare and file documents to the Courts electronically.  The system utilises four steps for the entire filing process. Once cases and documents are filed, the system will create a Case File which will be accessible to the Law Firm(s) and Service Bureau involved.

The system also allows users to compose or upload forms to enhance accuracy and consistency across all documents that are filed to the Courts. The eLitigation system automatically computes and informs the user of the filing and stamp fees that need to be paid for the filing of these documents.

eFiling follows a 4-Step Process.
