- # πŸ›οΈ ProSe-Ohio β€” Free AI Legal Guide for Parents Who Can't Afford a Lawyer
35
 
36
- <p align="center">
37
- <b>50-80% of parents in Ohio family court have no lawyer.</b><br/>
38
- <b>Unlike criminal court, there is no right to one.</b><br/>
39
- <b>This model exists because that's wrong.</b>

44
- ## What This Model Does
 
 
 
 
45
 
46
- ProSe-Ohio guides a self-represented parent through **every step** of an Ohio family court case β€” in plain English, assuming **zero legal knowledge**.
47
 
48
- It covers the complete **12-step pro se journey**:
49
 
50
- | Step | You're Thinking... | ProSe-Ohio Helps With |
51
- |------|--------------------|-----------------------|
52
- | 1 | "Something happened to my child" | Your constitutional + statutory parental rights |
53
- | 2 | "I just got served with papers" | Deadlines, forms, which court, how to respond |
54
- | 3 | "I can't afford a lawyer" | Fee waivers, free clinics, law libraries, App.R. 9(C) |
55
- | 4 | "I need to file a motion" | Format, drafting, service of process β€” step by step |
56
- | 5 | "What evidence do I need?" | Best interest factors, organizing proof |
57
- | 6 | "I need their phone records" | Subpoenas, interrogatories, depositions, motions to compel |
58
- | 7 | "There's a GAL on my case" | How to cooperate, how to challenge, Sup.R. 48 |
59
- | 8 | "My hearing is tomorrow" | What to wear, say, do β€” objections, cross-examination |
60
- | 9 | "The judge ruled against me" | Magistrate objections (14 days!), appellate options |
61
- | 10 | "They're violating the order" | Contempt motions, documentation, enforcement |
62
- | 11 | "Circumstances have changed" | Modification standards, relocation, child's wishes |
63
- | 12 | "It's finally over" | Co-parenting, record retention, mental health |
64
 
65
- ### How It Talks to You
66
 
67
- ❌ **Not this**: "Pursuant to ORC §3109.04(E)(1)(a), a movant must demonstrate..."
68
 
69
- βœ… **Like this**: "To change your custody order, you need to show the court that something important has changed since the last order. This is called a 'change in circumstances' β€” here's exactly how to prove it..."

108
- ## Legal Safe Zone
 
 
 
109
 
110
- ProSe-Ohio provides **legal information**, not **legal advice**.
111
 
112
- This matches the exact scope of Ohio court self-help centers:
113
- - βœ… Help understand court procedures
114
- - βœ… Help find case information and forms
115
- - βœ… Explain what the law says
116
- - ❌ Does NOT tell you what to do in your specific case
117
- - ❌ Does NOT represent you or file documents for you
118
 
119
- **Built-in safety**: An intake assessment steers users toward real lawyers when their case is too complex for self-help.

- ## Built By a Pro Se Litigant
124
-
125
- This model was built by a father who represented himself in Hamilton County, Ohio family court. He couldn't afford the $5,000 retainer. He learned the hard way β€” reading statutes at 2 AM, making mistakes that almost cost him his case because nobody explained the basics.
126
 
127
- He built the tool he wished existed. And made it free for everyone.

24
+ ## The Story Behind This Model
25
+
26
+ In 1997, when DNA testing was still so new it was being featured on the Oprah Winfrey show, a father in Dayton, Ohio took his daughter for a paternity test. The results came back 0% β€” he wasn't her biological father. But the court had no mechanism to stop a child support order once it was established, even with DNA proof. He was still required to pay.
27
+
28
+ His case β€” and others like it β€” exposed a gaping hole in Ohio family law. Because of fathers like him, Ohio now has forms and procedures for victims of paternity fraud. He was among the first men in the state to be legally "defathered" under the Peter Lawson Jones Act, which established the 18-year statute of limitations for paternal determination.
29
 
30
+ Nearly three decades later, in 2025, it happened again. A different child. The same Hamilton County family court. The same impossible choice: hire a lawyer at $5,000 β€” or represent yourself in a system designed for attorneys.
31
 
32
+ He chose to fight. No lawyer. Just statutes, sleepless nights, and a father who refused to lose another child to a broken system.
33
 
34
+ **This model is the result.** Every question he couldn't answer at 2 AM, every filing deadline he almost missed, every legal term nobody bothered to explain β€” it's all in here. So no parent ever has to go through that alone again.

37
 
38
+ ## What This Model Does
39
 
40
+ ProSe-Ohio is fine-tuned on **13,400+ Q&A pairs** covering all 12 steps of an Ohio family court case:
41
+
42
+ | Step | Topic | Coverage |
43
+ |------|-------|----------|
44
+ | 1 | Parental rights & triggers | Constitutional rights, ORC Β§3109 |
45
+ | 2 | Getting served / responding | Deadlines, forms, jurisdiction |
46
+ | 3 | Can't afford a lawyer | Fee waivers, legal aid, law libraries |
47
+ | 4 | Filing motions | Format, drafting, service of process |
48
+ | 5 | Building evidence | Best interest factors (9 current, 26 under SB174) |
49
+ | 6 | Discovery | Subpoenas, interrogatories, depositions |
50
+ | 7 | GAL involvement | Cooperation, challenges, Sup.R. 48 |
51
+ | 8 | Courtroom preparation | Procedure, objections, cross-examination |
52
+ | 9 | Adverse rulings | Magistrate objections (14-day deadline!), appeals |
53
+ | 10 | Order enforcement | Contempt motions, documentation |
54
+ | 11 | Modifications | Change of circumstances, relocation |
55
+ | 12 | Post-case | Co-parenting, record keeping |
56
+
57
+ ### How It Responds
58
+
59
+ - **Defines every legal term** in parentheses when first used
60
+ - **Cites specific Ohio law** β€” ORC sections, Civil Rules, local rules
61
+ - **Gives step-by-step instructions** with deadlines and forms
62
+ - **Assumes zero legal knowledge** β€” plain English throughout
63
+ - **Warns when you need a real lawyer** β€” honest about limitations

67
+ ## The Council of Agents (Coming Soon)
68
 
69
+ ProSe AI isn't just one model β€” it's a **council** simulating every person you'll face in court:
70
 
71
+ | Agent | Role |
72
+ |-------|------|
73
+ | **Legal Guide** | Your main advisor through all 12 steps |
74
+ | **Magistrate Simulator** | Asks the hard questions the judge will ask |
75
+ | **Opposing Counsel** | Cross-examines you to find weaknesses |
76
+ | **GAL Simulator** | Evaluates your focus on the child |
77
+ | **Custody Investigator** | Simulates the home study interview |
78
+ | **Psychologist** | Assesses attachment and parenting capacity |
79
+ | **Witness Coach** | Prepares your testimony for pressure |
80
 
81
+ **You walk into court having already faced every scenario.** Most pro se litigants walk in blind.
82

84
 
85
+ ## Why Now: SB174
86
 
87
+ Ohio is passing its biggest family law reform in 25 years. [Senate Bill 174](https://www.legislature.ohio.gov/legislation/136/sb174) eliminates "custodial parent" labels, expands best interest factors from 9 to 26, and maximizes parenting time. ProSe AI is built to help parents understand both current law AND what's coming.
