A Domestic Violence/Stalking module is ONLY accessible on computer terminals in the Fulton Family Court's One Stop office for those who are seeking Temporary Protective Orders from domestic violence and stalking.

The Fulton Family Court developed I-CAN! for self-represented litigants to provide them with convenient access to vital legal services. I-CAN! creates properly formatted court documents for any Georgia county and provides litigants with information on the steps needed to pursue a legal action.
I-CAN! modules are based on forms currently available on the Fulton Family Court website and in the Family Law Information Center at the Fulton County Superior Court. These forms were developed with input from the Bar and the Family Court Judges and staff. All modules are available in both English and Spanish. The final printed forms are printed in English as required by law.

Please call the Family Court at 404/612-0505 or the Family Law Information Center (FLIC) at 404/612-2789 if you have questions.
NOTE: I-CAN! provides assistance with completing legal forms based on the litigant’s responses. I-CAN! does not provide legal advice. For individuals who need legal advice, the FLIC offers one half hour of consultation with an attorney at no cost.

The I-CAN! system was developed by the Legal Aid Society of Orange County and was jointly sponsored by local, state and public agencies and private organizations including: Legal Services Corporation, Judicial Council of California, State Bar of California-Legal Services Trust Fund Commission, Superior Court–County of Orange, OCDA-Family Support Division, Orange County Public Library System, Disneyland, City of Irvine and City of Fullerton. I-CAN! was a recipient of the Judicial Council of California 2003 Ralph N. Kleps Award for innovative projects and received an award from the National Association for Court Management at its 2004 conference. Funds for the Fulton County I-CAN! project were received through a grant from the Administrative Office of the Courts.
