GEORGIA LANDLORD TOOLS · PRIVATE CASE WORKSPACE
One case. Clear numbers.
A file you can explain.
For landlords dealing with partial rent, disputed receipts and scattered records. Organize a case in this tab, reconcile the arithmetic from source IDs, and prepare an accurate review packet without uploading tenant documents.
P4 · START WITH THE PROBLEM
What is happening with this rental?
Start with a private case nickname. Record what is known versus reported, who is checking the next fact, and what is still missing. This is a working case card, not a legal case-status determination.
This page does not automatically determine a notice or court deadline.
No case details recorded yet. Choose what is happening and update the card.
UnverifiedNo next action recorded.
Assign a person and source reference.
P5 · ONE EXPLAINABLE BALANCE
Separate what is charged, received, promised and held.
Every arithmetic entry needs a unique ID and source reference. Base-rent charges, other alleged charges, confirmed receipts, applied credits, held prepaid funds, security deposits, and court-registry money are reported separately. This is an accounting worksheet, not a calculation of legally collectible rent.
Pending ACH, unreceived promises, security deposits, and court-registry entries do not reduce the landlord-received arithmetic balance. All amounts require independent reconciliation and any legal entitlement needs counsel review.
Record a source-linked entry
Entered amounts are not a court finding; unsupported payments do not count as received.
| ID / date | Period | Type | Amount | Source | Note | Edit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No records yet. Load the fictional example or enter your first source-linked transaction. | ||||||
P6 · RECORDS AND PROVENANCE
Make an evidence timeline, not a folder of mysteries.
Select a local document to calculate its SHA-256 fingerprint and save metadata in this tab. The actual file bytes are never sent or kept in your case backup. A hash helps detect file changes, not prove authenticity, service or admissibility. You must retain the original files separately.
PDFs, photos, exported messages or other original records. Never select a file unless you are comfortable showing its name and hash in your encrypted backup.
No file chosen means a manual reference with no hash. It remains explicitly unverified.
Matching a fingerprint detects identical bytes; it does not confirm who created the record.
| Event | Reference | Filename / checksum | Status | Observation | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No source records added. | |||||
P9 · REPORTED COURT STATUS, VERIFIED SOURCES
What actually happened—and what is still only reported?
Record court events with an independent source reference and one clearly labeled evidence state. A motion is not an order, a writ request is not an issued writ, and an issued writ does not prove lawful execution. Every status below is entered by you; the software does not query or certify a court docket.
Add a sourced court event
Only a court or qualified counsel can determine the legal effect of a filing, stay, registry obligation, judgment or writ.
| Date / ID | Event | Evidence state | Source | Responsible | Notes | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No court events recorded. Choose an event only when you have something factual to record. | ||||||
No automatic court deadlines, rent-registry compliance decision, stay conclusion, writ authorization or legal eligibility determination. Verify the actual controlling order and court record before anyone acts.
P10 · ATTORNEY & ACTION COORDINATION
Who owns the next step—and what evidence closes it?
Make follow-ups accountable. Record who needs to answer, the relevant source, the date you plan to ask again, and what verified reply closes the item. These are administrative follow-up dates, not court deadlines. Fee estimates and billed figures are user-entered records, not proof of an agreed engagement or charge.
Assign a specific follow-up
Drafting a message does not mean it was sent or acknowledged. Enter a reply source before marking a task resolved.
| Task ID | Requested / responsible | Follow-up | Status | Reply source | Quoted / billed | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No follow-ups yet. | ||||||
Add a sourced case event or assigned follow-up. No legal status is inferred automatically.
ATTORNEY HANDOFF · ONE EXPLAINABLE FILE
Answer the questions your lawyer will ask.
Generate a factual overview with the case-status source, transaction trail, balance classification and evidence manifest. Unverified facts stay unverified. No legal strategy, court deadline or filing is generated.
Packet text is prepared locally. Review it for accuracy and avoid sharing private tenant information over unencrypted email.
Your private case summary will appear here after you select Prepare review packet.
CONTINUITY · USER-CONTROLLED ENCRYPTION
Save your work without sending it to us.
Download a password-encrypted case backup using AES-256-GCM with PBKDF2 key derivation. The passphrase is never stored or sent. Losing it may make the backup unrecoverable. The encrypted file contains your ledger, evidence references, reported court events and counsel follow-ups—not the underlying evidence file bytes.
Download an encrypted backup
We cannot recover a forgotten passphrase. Save it in your own password manager.
Restore with preview, never an accidental overwrite
The current case is preserved until the backup decrypts, passes validation and you explicitly confirm replacement.
Close or clear the case
The workspace does not use browser storage, so closing the tab discards in-memory entries. To clear this tab immediately, use the separate confirmation below. Clear cannot be undone without your own encrypted backup.
