Mail completed court documents online
Court Document Mailing Packets is an upload-first service for completed motions, responses, petitions, notices, exhibits, and other court papers. PostalForm prints and mails the files the user provides. It does not prepare legal documents, determine where or how they must be filed, serve another party, or confirm that a document was filed or accepted.
We print the documents you upload and mail the packet to the court or legal recipient you confirm.

PostalForm provides the form instructions, mailing notes, document checklist, and source links below. Review these details before completing the guided fields, particularly when the recipient requires a signature, enclosure, or specific submission method. Preview the completed PDF and confirm the destination and price before paying.
Which mailing option and proof should you choose?
PostalForm offers U.S. letter mailing with different delivery and proof options. First-Class suits routine correspondence; Certified Mail adds mailing and delivery records, and Electronic Return Receipt adds a downloadable signature record. Expedited delivery prioritizes speed. Review the destination, estimated dates, total price, and required proof before paying.
| Mailing option | Delivery speed | Proof | Use when | Avoid when |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| USPS First-Class Mail | First-Class Mail delivery estimate shown before payment. | Available processing scans; no recipient signature or Certified Mail receipt. | Routine letters when a signed delivery record is unnecessary. | Your instructions require Certified Mail, a signature, or a deadline this estimate cannot meet. |
| Certified Mail | First-Class delivery speed; certification does not make delivery faster. | USPS mailing and delivery/attempt tracking; no Electronic Return Receipt unless added. | You need a recorded mailing and delivery or attempted-delivery status. | You need a downloadable signature record or faster delivery. |
| Certified Mail + Electronic Return Receipt | First-Class delivery speed; signature collection may require redelivery or pickup. | Certified Mail records plus a downloadable USPS signature record when available. | Your instructions call for Certified Mail with Return Receipt or you need the signature record. | Your recipient requires an original enclosure, personal service, or another submission method. |
| Expedited / Express with signature | Faster estimated delivery range shown at checkout; production cutoff and destination apply. | Carrier tracking and signature option; this is separate from Certified Mail and ERR. | Speed and signature matter and checkout offers the service for your destination. | A rule specifically requires Certified Mail or the displayed estimate misses your deadline. |
Availability and delivery estimates depend on the document and destination. Mailing proof does not establish that a recipient accepted a filing or that legal service requirements were met. Delivery estimates · Full pricing

FAQs+
Can every court document be filed by mail?
No. Rules vary by court and document type. Confirm mail acceptance, the filing address, copies, fees, signatures, and deadlines with the court before ordering.
Does PostalForm prepare or review my court papers?
No. Upload a completed filing copy. PostalForm prints and mails what you provide but does not provide legal advice or review the document for legal sufficiency.
Does mailing the packet mean it has been filed?
No. Filing is controlled by the receiving court. USPS tracking does not confirm clerk acceptance or docketing, so follow the court's process to verify filing.
Will this serve the other parties in my case?
Not by itself. Service rules may require a separate recipient, packet, method, timing, and proof. Create a separate order only after reviewing the exact service copy and applicable rules.
