Workflow

Overview

CaseMark's Incident Report Summary skill transforms raw police reports, crash reports, workplace incident reports, and investigative documents into structured, litigation-ready summaries. The AI extracts every critical detail — parties, narratives, citations, witnesses, contributing factors, and evidence — into a standardized format that attorneys can immediately use for case assessment and strategy.

Incident reports are dense, inconsistently formatted documents that require painstaking manual review to extract actionable information. Attorneys and paralegals spend hours reading through narratives, cross-referencing party details, cataloging witness statements, and identifying contradictions — all before they can even begin case assessment or liability analysis.

CaseMark's AI reads and structures the entire incident report in minutes, extracting every party, narrative detail, citation, witness account, and contributing factor into a clean, standardized format. Every fact is traced to specific source language with no inferences, and all gaps and contradictions are automatically flagged for attorney review.

Questions

What types of incident reports can this skill process?

CaseMark's Incident Report Summary handles police reports, crash/collision reports, workplace incident reports, and investigative documents. The AI automatically adapts its extraction fields based on the report type, skipping irrelevant sections like vehicle information for workplace incidents.

How does CaseMark handle gaps or contradictions in the report?

CaseMark automatically flags every gap, contradiction, and ambiguity it identifies across the report. These are called out explicitly so attorneys can immediately focus on areas that may require follow-up investigation or additional discovery.

Is the summary suitable for use in litigation and discovery?

Yes. CaseMark produces litigation-ready summaries where every extracted fact traces back to specific source language in the original report — no inferences are made. The structured format is designed for case assessment, discovery planning, and liability evaluation.

Can I upload supplemental documents like witness forms and diagrams?

Absolutely. CaseMark processes all attachments including supplements, witness statement forms, diagrams, and photo logs alongside the primary report. This ensures a comprehensive summary that captures the full evidentiary picture.

How does the narrative summary work?

CaseMark generates two versions of the narrative: a complete narrative preserving the officer or investigator's full account, and a key facts extract highlighting only legally significant details such as fault admissions, impairment observations, physical evidence, and environmental conditions.

How long does it take to generate a summary?

CaseMark typically generates a complete structured summary in about 8 minutes, regardless of report length. This replaces what often takes attorneys or paralegals 45 minutes to several hours of manual review and note-taking.
