Scott's Web Log

The State of California will soon require forms and documentation used in processing workers' compensation cases be filed electronically. Aside from using the proposed proprietary system the only method mentioned for submitting files is to upload PDFs. I'm am currently developing interactive on-line forms that will allow users to fill in, download and print out these forms. Unlike PDFs found on-line, this site will allow the user to save their data and both amend, emend and create new documents from the same form.

These forms (I currently have only one ready for use, WCAB Form 1, Application for Adjudication of Claim) are part of a comprehensive case management system currently under development. When operational, the system will be a data dictionary for populating forms, documents and letters. The system is being developed using PHP5, MySQL, and Open Office utilizing a technique referred to as Ajax.

I operate a site that provides legal form templates. The forms are available as MS Word and/or OpenOffice templates. They are available for download by subscription or by purchasing with PayPal Buy Now buttons.
