Workflow

Overview

CaseMark's Risk Analysis skill transforms complex matter documents into structured, prioritized risk assessments complete with quantified financial exposures and actionable mitigation strategies. Powered by AI, it produces comprehensive risk registers, visual risk matrices, and executive summaries that would traditionally take hours of attorney analysis to compile.

Preparing a thorough risk analysis for a legal matter requires attorneys to manually review contracts, pleadings, regulatory filings, and correspondence — then synthesize findings into a structured assessment with exposure estimates and mitigation recommendations. This process is time-intensive, prone to overlooking interdependencies between risks, and difficult to standardize across matters and practice groups.

CaseMark automates the heavy lifting of risk analysis by ingesting your matter documents and producing a comprehensive, structured risk register with severity scoring, likelihood assessments, and three-scenario financial exposure ranges. The AI identifies cross-risk interdependencies, flags time-sensitive deadlines, and recommends prioritized mitigation strategies — delivering a client-ready risk assessment in minutes instead of hours.

How it works

  1. 1. Upload your matter documents — contracts, pleadings, correspondence, regulatory filings, and policies

  2. 2. AI analyzes documents to identify, categorize, and score risks by severity and likelihood

  3. 3. Review the structured risk register, exposure ranges, and prioritized mitigation strategies

  4. 4. Export your complete risk analysis in your preferred format (DOCX, PDF)

Questions

What types of risks does CaseMark identify?

CaseMark's risk analysis covers six key categories: contractual, regulatory, litigation, financial, reputational, and operational risks. Each risk is grounded in specific document evidence and cited legal authority, giving you a comprehensive view of your matter's risk landscape.

How does CaseMark quantify financial exposure?

CaseMark generates three-scenario financial exposure estimates — best-case, most-likely, and worst-case — for each identified risk. These ranges are derived from the facts, contract terms, and legal standards found in your uploaded documents, helping you set realistic reserves and advise clients.

Can I use this for pre-filing risk evaluations?

Absolutely. CaseMark's risk analysis is designed for use across all matter phases, including pre-filing assessments, active litigation, and settlement evaluations. It highlights time-sensitive deadlines, statute of limitations dates, and regulatory windows so you can act proactively.

How does the risk matrix work?

CaseMark plots each identified risk on a 3×3 severity-by-likelihood grid, giving you an instant visual snapshot of your matter's risk profile. This makes it easy to communicate priorities to clients, stakeholders, and leadership teams at a glance.

What documents should I upload for the best results?

For the most comprehensive analysis, upload all relevant matter documents including contracts, pleadings, correspondence, regulatory filings, and insurance policies. CaseMark cross-references these sources to identify risks, cite supporting evidence, and flag coverage or defense opportunities.

Does CaseMark flag uncertain legal citations?

Yes. When CaseMark references statutes, regulations, or case law that require verification, it marks them with a [VERIFY] tag. This ensures transparency and prompts you to confirm authority before relying on it in client communications or filings.
