In this video we’re going to cover registering for a new account at MyFileRunner. We make registration easy and accessible so you can sign up and get to filing. Let’s get into it.

First, click the Register button. You’ll see four states available: California, Illinois, Indiana, and Texas. Since Texas is our home base, we’re going to click on Texas to start.

Registration Form

Next you’ll see our registration form. It’s a standard registration form and you can register as one of two account types: Firm Administrator or Individual User. If you’re filing on behalf of a firm, select Firm Administrator — that’s what we’ll do today. If you’re filing by yourself, the Individual User option is available.

Start by entering your firm name, followed by the email address associated with your law firm.

Password

Next, assign your password. Passwords must be at least eight alphanumeric characters. Confirm the same password in the field below.

Enter your name — first and last name are both required.

Next, select a security question and provide your answer. Both can be whatever you’d like.

Contact Information

Now enter your contact information, starting with your phone number, followed by your street address — this should be your business address. Enter your city, confirm your state (it will be pre-filled), and enter your zip code.

Questions

You’ll see two permission questions. The first asks: “Do you allow MyFileRunner customer service to be a firm admin on your behalf?” Checking this allows us to perform certain account operations for you if needed. The second asks: “Do you allow MyFileRunner customer service to file in the courts on your behalf?” If you ever need our help with filing, you’ll want to check this box.

Finally, review and accept the standard terms and conditions by checking the box. When you’re ready, click the big blue Register button. You’ll receive an activation email — click the link in that email and you’re good to go. You’re ready to file!
