Pretrial Statement

Overview

CaseMark's Pre-Trial Statement skill automates the drafting of court-compliant pre-trial statements and joint pretrial reports for U.S. commercial litigation. It organizes stipulated facts, frames contested issues, compiles witness and exhibit lists, and addresses trial management matters—all structured to meet local rules and judicial requirements.

Drafting pre-trial statements and joint pretrial reports is one of the most tedious yet critical tasks in trial preparation. Attorneys must manually compile stipulated facts, frame contested issues, organize extensive witness and exhibit lists, and ensure every section complies with local rules—a process that often takes days and is prone to formatting errors and omissions.

CaseMark automates the entire pre-trial statement drafting process by analyzing your case documents, local rules, and witness/exhibit disclosures. The AI generates a structured, court-compliant document with properly formatted stipulated facts, neutrally framed contested issues, comprehensive witness and exhibit lists, and trial management sections—ready for attorney review and filing.

How it works

  1. 1. Upload your case documents, local rules or judge's pretrial order, and witness/exhibit disclosures

  2. 2. AI analyzes the case posture, identifies stipulated facts, and frames contested issues

  3. 3. Review and customize the generated pre-trial statement sections, witness lists, and exhibit compilations

  4. 4. Export the finalized pre-trial statement in your preferred format (DOCX, PDF)

Questions

Does CaseMark follow my jurisdiction's local rules for pre-trial statements?

Yes. CaseMark uses the local rules or judge's pretrial order you upload to structure the document according to your court's specific requirements. The AI adapts section headings, numbering conventions, and formatting to match the governing order.

Can I use this for a joint pretrial report with opposing counsel?

Absolutely. CaseMark generates joint pretrial reports that accommodate stipulated facts from both parties, contested issues from each side, and joint witness and exhibit lists. You can easily share and iterate on the draft with opposing counsel.

How does the AI handle stipulated facts versus contested issues?

CaseMark separates stipulated facts using verbatim agreed wording in a non-argumentative format, while contested issues of law and fact are framed as discrete, neutral questions the court must decide. This ensures clarity and compliance with pretrial requirements.

Will the witness and exhibit lists include all required details?

Yes. CaseMark generates witness lists with name, type (fact or expert), location, subject of testimony, and disclosure references. Exhibit lists include exhibit IDs, Bates numbers, descriptions, and objection status following your court's numbering conventions.

How long does it take to generate a pre-trial statement?

CaseMark typically generates a comprehensive pre-trial statement in approximately 10-15 minutes, depending on the complexity and volume of your uploaded documents. This replaces what traditionally takes hours or days of manual drafting.

Can I edit the generated pre-trial statement before filing?

Of course. CaseMark produces a fully editable draft that you can review, revise, and customize before filing. The AI provides the structure and content foundation so you can focus on strategic refinements.
