How Does It Work
MyMotionCalendar.com provides a secure online platform that manages your cases and reservation processes. New clients can easily register online and place an order. Attorneys interested in working with us can also apply online.
THE PROCESS:
Go to your Account Dashboard to make a New Reservation
Once an order is placed, you will receive an email indicating that your order has been received. We will then assign the case to our local attorney. Once they confirm coverage, you will receive a second email providing you with the confirmation that coverage has been arranged.
On your Account Dashboard may also edit/update or cancel an order as well as review current and completed matters.
Conflicts, Confidentiality, Liability & Disclosure
Should I disclose the use of MyMotionCalendar.com to my clients?
You should disclose the nature of the services provided by MyMotionCalendar.com if your clients would likely consider this information material. You absolutely should inform your clients that one of our attorneys will be handling the matter if your client is planning on attending. No one likes surprises.
What about conflicts checks?
Both the hiring attorney/firm and the coverage attorney have an obligation to review the matter for potential conflicts in accordance with Bar rules. If there is any conflict with any party, the coverage attorney cannot participate in any way in handling or assisting with the matter. In our experience, our coverage attorneys are VERY proactive about this.
What about confidentiality?
Coverage attorneys are bound by all rules regarding confidentiality under the Bar rules and must not disclose any confidential information obtained during the course of assisting the client.
What about liability?
The coverage attorney is deemed to be “associated” with the hiring attorney and/or firm and the hiring attorney and/or firm is responsible for all supervision and instruction to the covering attorney.
Can I hire MyMotionCalendar as my attorney?
MyMotionCalendar.com is not a law firm, does not engage in the practice of law and does not offer any of its services to the general public. Nor do we provide referrals to the public.
Getting Results
Results are emailed to you with the necessary orders or other attachments by the end of day, or by 12 noon the following morning at the latest. The results form will include all details including who was in attendance, arguments made, judge’s ruling and attached orders or other documents that you will need.
What documents does the coverage attorney need?
The coverage attorney needs all of the pleadings and information that the attorney of record in your firm would need to handle the same matter. These documents can be uploaded online as part of the reservation process.
Communications & Instructions to the Coverage Attorney
COMMUNICATIONS
You can communicate with our coverage attorneys regarding any matter at any time through our case management system. You can also request a conference call at any time and we will arrange it for you. Our staff is also available at any time to answer your questions.
INSTRUCTIONS
The New Reservation form gives you the opportunity to provide all pertinent hearing information, documents, detailed guidance and instruction to the coverage attorney. You may also request a conference call at the time of placing the reservation. MyMotionCalendar.com does not in any way instruct the covering attorneys on how to handle a matter. It is solely the client’s responsibility to provide all of the necessary information to the coverage attorney.

Can I hire one of your attorneys directly?
We are in the business of providing excellent attorneys to assist our clients. As such, our attorneys are our most valuable assets. Both our clients and coverage attorneys agree to non-circumvent, non-compete, and non-solicitation agreements. Nonetheless, if you would like to hire one of our attorneys directly, we operate as a staffing firm and charge a conversion fee. Call for more details.
Can I request a specific coverage attorney?
Of course! We encourage our clients and coverage attorneys to develop strong relationships so that you truly feel like you have an “associate” at the courthouse representing you and your clients.
