Coverage and source review

15 topics and 374 situation checklists are available for all 75 Arkansas counties. The statewide expansion adds 90 tailored guides and deepens 30 existing guides. County selection provides published contacts and qualified referrals; it does not establish independently researched local procedures, eligibility or open intake. Source retrieval and editorial drafting are separate from professional legal review; no professional review is recorded.

All 15 topics and 374 situation guides are available for each of the 75 counties (28,050 situation-and-county combinations). This measures navigation coverage, not independently researched local procedures.

120 situations include a detailed process explanation, decision points and specific source-checking questions. Every checklist includes county preparation checks.

County routes use the expanded service directory, including published program assignments, vacancies and statewide referrals. Office listings do not establish appointment availability, acceptance of a legal matter or independently verified local procedures.

Source retrieval is recorded separately from legal review. No professional legal review has been completed. Local forms, fees, deadlines, specialist availability and representation remain case-specific checks.
