Possibly interesting data: Legal Forms

[Brennan-Chesley-FLP]

During the all hands on 2026-02-05, we discussed possible classes of data that might be interesting to curate, in terms of the tools we might build on them, or the initiatives that they might enable. This issue is for tracking thoughts and investigations on curating legal form data.

During our initial discussion, we thought this might help enhance the litigant portal, might enable analysis about the kinds of questions that are asked across different jurisdictions, or be a source of data that other organizations like the Suffolk LIT Lab might use for their legal aid efforts.

Maybe a decade ago, Jon from CALI wanted to do this with me as an LSC grant. It didn't pan out, but it still seems like a solid idea.
