Faster, smarter filing corrections have arrived

Effortlessly resubmit rejected eFilings with One Legal's re-submission feature — save time, reduce errors, and streamline your workflow.

Rejected filings are one of the most frustrating challenges for legal professionals, often leading to delays and, in some cases, missed statutory deadlines and dissatisfied clients.

We know how disruptive this can be, so we’ve introduced a solution to make filing corrections faster and simpler. 

With our new Re-File option, correcting and resubmitting rejected filings is as simple as a single click; this feature automates much of the re-submission process, pre-populating previously entered information so you can focus on resolving flagged issues — without the repetitive data entry

Designed with your feedback in mind, this game-changing feature tackles the challenges of rejected filings head-on, helping you save time, reduce errors, and ensure greater accuracy. 

Why this matters

Did you know that approximately 10% of filings are rejected by the court? When it happens, re-filing is a tedious process that requires re-entering data and re-uploading documents—which can introduce additional errors that result in repeat filing rejections.  

For firms managing high case volumes or multiple filers, these inefficiencies add up quickly, creating bottlenecks and disrupting timelines across cases. 

Our Re-File feature eliminates these headaches. Whether you’re dealing with a full or partial rejection, it pre-populates data from your original filing, letting you focus on the necessary corrections. No starting over. No unnecessary delays. Just faster, more efficient workflows. 

How it works

The Re-File feature supports several common scenarios: 

  • Case initiations: Quickly correct errors in party details, document types, or other data. The system pre-populates everything from the rejected filing, so you don’t have to start from scratch.
  • Subsequent filings: All previously entered details, including selected parties, document types, hearing dates (if applicable), and fees are pre-filed. For partial rejections, previously accepted documents remain available for reference.
  • Bundled File + Serve orders: Service of process orders linked to a rejected filing are automatically paused until the filing is resubmitted and accepted by the court, with the option to review or amend them before dispatch.
