Coach Neighbors

Coach Guy Neighbors Coach Guy Neighbors is the founder of Pro Se Legal School, a higher education platform built to help self-represented individuals better understand the current administrative court process and shift them from their current position to one of authority. Pro Se Legal School's higher education program will help you jump-start your critical thinking process. You will learn how to structure your unconventional game plan when facing serious legal challenges. For many years, Coach Neighbors has coached and studied the experiences of self-represented litigants dealing with foreclosure, eviction, debt collection, property disputes, civil lawsuits, and other court proceedings across the country. He developed his strategies and continually refined them through real-time feedback from people using these approaches and reporting what happened in their cases. His work grew from recognizing a recurring problem: everyday people often enter court focused entirely on proving they are right while the process continues moving against them. They may not know how to question jurisdiction, standing, judicial authority, due process, notice, procedural violations, or whether important objections have been addressed. That observation became the foundation of Coach Neighbors' unconventional approach to court education. Instead of teaching people to simply react to whatever is filed against them, he teaches self-represented individuals how to use the counterclaim process to add the state, the judge, and the prosecutor to their administrative action as litigants, examine the process itself, identify potential problems, preserve objections, create a record, develop their own claims and challenges, and determine what needs to happen next to protect their due process. A central principle of his approach is that you do not always have to win the entire case today. The immediate objective is to stop the next step, force an unanswered issue onto the record, protect your position, and prevent important constitutional and procedural questions from simply being ignored. As a coach, Coach Neighbors works directly with self-represented individuals to help them understand what is happening in their cases and develop a game plan to protect their due process. His work is especially focused on people facing situations where their homes, property, money, credit, family security, or ability to be heard may be at stake. Through Pro Se Legal School, Coach Neighbors has developed higher educational programs, courses, document examples, workshops, live training, coaching programs, and document systems designed around the problems self-represented people encounter. His work also extends into ongoing public education through live streams and workshops where he breaks down court procedures, documents, strategies, due process issues, and real-world problems in language ordinary people can understand. After approximately 17 years, the mission remains simple: give self-represented people information, structure, higher education, and a different way of looking at the court process so they are better prepared to stop the next step, instead of simply watching the process happen to them.
