Litigation Management Software
Litigation management software has to keep a case posture-ready through pleadings, discovery, motions, depositions, and trial. Caseagent puts an AI agent inside each litigation file to compute the deadlines, draft discovery requests and responses, and research the law with every citation flagged for verification.
Five phases, one docket, no slack
Litigation is a calendar with a case attached. Every phase generates documents to read, papers to draft, and dates that other dates depend on. The agent works all three, and you review before anything matters.
Deadline computation is the spine of the case
Litigation deadlines cascade: a continued hearing or an amended scheduling order moves everything downstream. Keeping that cascade straight by hand is where dockets break, which is why litigators buy legal calendaring and docketing software before almost anything else.
Every date in the file gets found. Scheduling orders, notices, and rule-based clocks: the agent extracts dates as documents arrive and computes the dependent deadlines onto one matter timeline.
Reminders escalate until a human confirms. A deadline is never silently marked handled. The agent keeps escalating until someone at the firm confirms it, because calendaring errors are the most preventable malpractice trigger there is.
Court rules vary; verification stays with you. Computed dates are a docketing aid checked against the file, and the attorney verifies them against local rules before relying on them. The full mechanics are on the legal deadline calculator and tracking page.

Discovery drafted from the file, not from a form book
Discovery is where litigation hours go to die: high volume, high stakes, mostly assembly. It's exactly the work an agent inside the file is built for. Producing a large collected data set is a separate job with its own tooling, covered in our guide to legal document review software.
01
Requests aimed at your theory
Interrogatories and requests for production drafted from the pleadings and the chronology, targeting the facts your case actually turns on, ready for your cuts and additions.
02
Responses built from the record
First-draft responses and objections keyed to each request, citing what the file contains, with gaps flagged for the attorney instead of papered over.
03
Motion and opposition outlines
Structured outlines with the record cites pulled in, so briefing starts from an organized argument instead of a blank page. See legal drafting software.
04
Deposition prep from the chronology
Witness-by-witness outlines drawn from the documents each witness touched, with the exhibits to walk them through already listed. The chronology behind it comes from AI case file analysis.
Research memos where every citation says: verify me
AI-drafted briefs with invented citations have gotten real lawyers sanctioned. Caseagent's research output is built around that failure mode instead of pretending it away.
Memos, not answers. The agent returns a structured research memo: question presented, short answer, analysis, and authorities, scoped to the motion or issue you're working.
Every authority carries a [VERIFY] flag. Each case, statute, and rule the agent surfaces is explicitly marked for attorney verification before it goes in a brief. The agent never invents case names, and it never treats its own output as checked.
How the memo pipeline works, end to end, is on the legal research software page, and you can see the flags in the research-memo task of the live demo.
