Automated Litigation Support & Document Synthesis
Legal AI Affidavit & PDF Assembly Engine
An AI document synthesis platform that ingests case folders, extracts evidence, and generates a structured, court-compliant affidavit draft with attorney-in-the-loop validation.
The Challenge
Drafting an affidavit is one of the most time-consuming tasks in litigation. Attorneys must manually cross-reference evidence, depositions, and exhibits to construct a factual narrative—often unbillable and slow.
The firm needed a tool that can ingest a case folder and produce a structured, court-compliant draft quickly while still enforcing formatting rules (FRCP/state constraints) and keeping attorneys in control. Evidence is messy (scans, handwritten notes, photos), so extraction and chronology had to be robust.
Quick Stats
- Inputs: PDFs, photos, handwritten notes
- Outputs: Court-formatted PDF
- Security: Zero-retention + encryption
- Impact: 10h → 2h; +30% case capacity
The Solution
We developed an AI document synthesis platform that performs multi-file analysis of case evidence and generates a chronological, cited affidavit draft—complete with signature blocks and exhibit references.
Drafting is treated as a governed pipeline: extract → normalize → cross-reference → synthesize → format → attorney validation. AI accelerates synthesis, while strict formatting rules and review gates prevent unsupported statements or layout drift from reaching filings.
Technical Approach
- Multi-modal evidence extraction: OCR pulls text from handwritten notes and photos into a temporal evidence database.
- Rule-based formatting: Strict PDF generation enforces court-mandated margins, fonts, and layout constraints.
Technical Details
Architecture
React → Python (FastAPI) → ReportLab (PDF Engine)
Integrations
Dropbox/OneDrive for ingestion; DocuSign API.
Security
Client-side encryption; zero-data-retention options; private AI instance support; attorney-in-the-loop validation for every generation.
AI Features
Evidence cross-referencing flags contradictions across witness statements and drafts a cited statement of facts.
Results & Impact
- 10 hours → 2 hours drafting time reduction per affidavit.
- 100% formatting compliance with court-mandated layout constraints.
- Increased case load: the firm handles 30% more litigation with existing headcount.
