eFileMadeEasy

What eFileMadeEasy does

eFileMadeEasy is a cloud-based eFiling platform developed by Legal Automation Systems, Inc., a Tampa, Florida corporation, that automates the electronic submission of legal pleadings to state court e-portals and handles electronic service of process by email. The product serves legal professionals nationwide — from sole practitioners filing approximately 20 pleadings per month to large firms filing thousands per day — including law firms, attorneys and process servers across 10 currently compatible U.S. states (Arizona coming soon). Distribution is delivered as a self-serve SaaS with native plug-ins for Microsoft Word and Adobe Acrobat, plus API, FTP and WebDAV integration paths for enterprise and high-volume users.

The underlying technology integrates directly with each state court's e-portal, automates metadata scrubbing for privacy compliance, manages template creation and merging, processes batch submissions across multiple cases, and generates exhibit identifiers automatically. Revenue is generated through a minimum $29.99/month subscription, usage-based pricing for high-volume batch processing, and a 7% markup on court filing fees when the company advances payment for urgent filings; an annual $250 setup fee applies to reactivate cancelled accounts. The go-to-market is product-led growth via self-serve signup and tutorial content, supplemented by direct phone and email sales for larger accounts. In April 2026, eFileMadeEasy was acquired by First Legal, a U.S. litigation support and attorney services firm backed by Aurora Capital Partners, with the platform folded into First Legal's File Thru Trial technology suite.
