Workflow

Overview

Preparing pre-trial statements requires hours of reviewing case files, extracting facts from discovery, compiling witness lists, and ensuring compliance with local court rules. Attorneys often spend 5-6 hours manually synthesizing information from dozens of documents, risking omissions and formatting inconsistencies that can undermine trial preparation.
