​​Accessing Court​​​

Do you need help accessing court because of a disability? Illinois courts are committed to removing barriers that prevent the full and meaningful participation of anyone with a disability in the court system.

Help for people with disabilities is available. This may be:

  • Qualified sign language interpreters, assistive listening devices, video phone, and CART captions
  • Documents made available in large-print or Braille
  • Access for service animals (dogs and miniature horses)
  • Help completing court documents
  • Allowing companions, support workers, care providers, and family members

Requests may be made by any means (for example, in writing or verbally) to the Court Disability Coordinator. For faster responses, you are encouraged to use one of the forms below:
