Someone insideA family member or someone you love is in federal custody, and you are trying to help from out here. Credits and release datesFirst Step Act credits, good time, halfway house or home confinement timing, or a release date that looks wrong. Compassionate releaseSerious illness, age, or a family emergency, and you need the court to look at release or a shorter sentence. Appeal or post-convictionThe sentence is final and you are looking at a 2255, a 2241, or an appeal. The clocks on these are short. Supervised releaseHome now, reporting to a probation officer, and working toward ending supervision early.

Not sure which one fits? Start with the free tools, or book a free consultation and we will point you to the right path.

Free ConsultationTalk to us before you pay anything. The first conversation is free, and if our materials are not the right fit for your situation, we will say so.
How payment works: Digital products are covered by the Digital Product Terms: if a file cannot be opened or is corrupted, we will replace it or refund it. One-on-one support is scoped and priced in writing after a free consultation, before any work starts.

Helping families understand the federal process, one step at a time.
When someone you love is inside, the paperwork can feel impossible. Our guides, tools, and research support explain the law in plain language and show how people organize and file in their own name.

Support beyond the written materials is scoped and priced in writing after a free consultation.

Additional Services

Beyond our core federal work, we also assist with select other matters.

Earned Time Credits: The First Step Act lets many people earn time off their sentence for completing programs and activities. If your credits look wrong, our guides and the free estimator show how to check the calculation, and what a request to have it corrected usually includes.

Sentence Calculation Checks: Release dates get computed wrong more often than people think. Our materials show how to compare your sentence computation, jail credit, and projected release date against your judgment and your BOP records, and what to do if the numbers do not match.

FOIA Requests: Your own records can matter to your case. Our guides explain how Freedom of Information Act requests work and how to track them.

BOP Disciplinary Hearing Support: A disciplinary hearing can cost you good time and privileges. Our materials explain how disciplinary hearings work and how people organize the documents and the written statement they present.

These services do not carry flat prices. Book a consultation, and we will tell you in writing what the work costs before anything starts.
