Navigating the forms needed for family, estate, and housing law in New York is easier thanks to the tireless efforts of Sun Kim. As Special Counsel for Technology Initiatives in the New York State Courts Access to Justice Program, Sun focuses on the development of self-help tools for unrepresented litigants. She is responsible for designing, programming, and implementing DIY Forms, an easy to understand and complete program to prepare court forms for unrepresented litigants that still meet the stringent standards of the court. The DIY Form programs have been utilized by hundreds of thousands of unrepresented New Yorkers over the past eight years. She also created and maintains the Advocate Family Offense Petition Program, which streamlines the litigant data collected from a trained advocate’s use of the program into the court’s case management system.
