FAQ
Q: What are common reasons to vacate a judgment?
Common reasons include never being served with the lawsuit (lack of jurisdiction), "excusable neglect" (like a medical emergency), or newly discovered evidence. I draft the motion to highlight these reasons clearly.
Q: Is there a deadline for filing a Motion to Vacate?
Yes. Many jurisdictions have strict timelines, often 6 months or 1 year depending on the reason. Please check your local rules before ordering.
Q: What if the court has specific formatting rules?
I will edit the document to the specific court rules required. Please provide your local rules or a sample template, and I will ensure the final draft adheres strictly to those requirements.
Q: Can you help with a "Default" where I never answered the case?
Yes. This is a common use for a Motion to Vacate. I can draft the motion and a supporting declaration explaining why you didn't answer and showing you have a valid defense.
Q: What do I need to provide?
I need a copy of the Judgment or Order you want to vacate, proof of why the error occurred (like a hospital record or proof of wrong address), and your proposed response to the original case.
