The walkthrough
The litigation paralegal keeps filed cases on schedule. They calendar court deadlines, draft discovery responses and manage the file. Here is that work in LitAxis.
01The docket this week
The docket comes first: every court deadline and hearing coming up across the litigation team, on one calendar.
02This case's deadlines
On a single case, the deadlines show what's due, to whom, and whether it was met. This case is in written discovery, with responses to the defendant's interrogatories coming due.
03Calculate from the rules
Instead of counting days by hand, the paralegal enters a trigger date, like service or an order, and LitAxis calculates the chain of deadlines from the firm's own deadline rules.
04Draft discovery responses
To draft discovery responses, the paralegal pastes in the interrogatories, and AI drafts responses from the case file for the attorney to review.
05The pleadings file
The complaint, the answer and discovery are filed on the matter, versioned and searchable.
06Parties and counsel
Defendants, opposing counsel and the other parties are on the file, ready for every letter and filing.
07Hand off to the attorney
The draft responses go to the attorney as a task, due ahead of the court deadline, and both of them see it on their task lists.
08Time, recorded
Time is logged against the matter as the work is done, with lodestar value, ready for a fee petition.
Every date calculated, and every draft started from the file. That's litigation support in LitAxis.
