Urgency & Deadline Detection
Flag court dates, statutes, removals, arrests, custody emergencies, expiring offers, and filing deadlines.
AI does it: An autonomous agent runs this end-to-end; an attorney reviews before anything reaches the client.
Metrics improved
The problem this page solves
- — Firms handle intake / qualification with tools that don't talk to each other.
- — Good leads slip through cracks; bad leads burn hours before you spot them.
- — Attorneys walk into consults cold and lose retainers they should have won.
Four capabilities
Urgency & Deadline Detection plugs directly into the loop — no bolt-on integrations, no duplicate data entry.
Qualifies, drafts, and follows up automatically — with reason codes on every action.
Every consequential step is queued for review before it reaches the client.
Wired into the ROI dashboard so you can see impact by source, not by feature.

Trust guardrails
Bar-defensible by constructionThe AI never gives legal advice. It captures facts, matches fit, and hands off to an attorney.
Every downstream action — briefs, filings, retainers — is queued for attorney review before it leaves the firm.
SMS/email consent is captured at intake. Every AI decision ships with reason codes and an immutable audit trail.
Names, opposing parties, and firms are pre-checked before a consult is booked or a retainer is sent.
