The Problem

Missing a court filing deadline is the #1 cause of legal malpractice claims, costing firms $50K–$500K per claim. Each jurisdiction has unique rules for calculating deadlines. Federal vs state courts have different counting methods. A single paralegal managing 100+ deadlines manually is a ticking time bomb.

The Solution

Automated court deadline calculator that applies jurisdiction-specific rules to trigger events, generates a complete deadline chain for each case, syncs with team calendars, and sends escalating reminders as deadlines approach.

Target Audience

Litigation attorneys managing multiple active cases across jurisdictions, paralegals responsible for deadline management, and small firms without dedicated docketing staff
