Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to CS Disco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***"), in connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "***Registration Statement***") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***Commission***"), covering the offering of up to 3,163,195 shares (the "***Shares***") of the Company's common stock, par value $0.005 per share ("***Common Stock***") issuable pursuant to the Company's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the "***Plan***").

In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon (a) the Registration Statement and the related prospectus, (b) the Company's certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as currently in effect, (c) the Plan and (d) such other records, documents, opinions, certificates, memoranda and instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below. We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies, the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certificates of public officials and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by all persons other than the Company. As to certain factual matters, we have relied upon a certificate of an officer of the Company and have not independently verified such matters.

Our opinion is expressed only with respect to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. We express no opinion to the extent that any other laws are applicable to the subject matter hereof and express no opinion and provide no assurance as to compliance with any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation.

On the basis of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, we are of the opinion that the Shares, when sold and issued in accordance with the Plan, the Registration Statement and the related prospectus, will be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable (except as to Shares issued pursuant to deferred payment arrangements, which will be fully paid and nonassessable when such deferred payments are made in full).

 **Offering Note** <br>

<sup>1</sup> Pursuant to Rule 416(a) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this Registration Statement shall also cover any additional shares of common stock of CS Disco, Inc. (the "Registrant") that become issuable under the Registrant's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2021 Plan") by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, or other similar transaction effected that results in an increase to the number of outstanding shares of the Registrant's common stock, as applicable. The amount registered represents shares of common stock that were added to the shares reserved for future issuance under the 2021 Plan on January 1, 2026, pursuant to an automatic annual increase equal to 5.0% of the total number of shares of the Registrant's common stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding year, which annual increase is provided by the 2021 Plan. The proposed maximum offering price per unit and proposed maximum aggregate offering price are estimated in accordance with Rules 457(c) and 457(h) solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee on the basis of $3.1750 per share, which is the average of the high and low prices per share of the Registrant's common stock on February 24, 2026 as reported on the New York Stock Exchange.

 **Rule 457(p) Statement of Withdrawal, Termination, or Completion:** <br>

<sup>1</sup> The Registrant previously filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-266199) on July 18, 2022 (the "Prior Registration Statement"), which registered up to 4,366,966 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant with a proposed maximum aggregate offering price of $139,742,912.00, issuable upon the vesting and exercise of a performance stock option award (the "Performance Award"). No securities were issued under the Prior Registration Statement and the Performance Award was cancelled effective September 10, 2023. Pursuant to Rule 457(p), the Registrant is offsetting $1,386.96 of the fees associated with this Registration Statement from the filing fee previously paid in connection with the Prior Registration Statement.

 **Offset Note** <br>

<sup>2</sup> The Registrant expects to offset the registration fee due hereunder by an amount of fees that was previously paid with respect to the Prior Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act. The fee previously paid for the Prior Registration Statement was $12,954.17. The Registrant previously filed (i) an additional registration statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-277283) on February 22, 2024 (the "2024 Registration Statement") and (ii) an additional registration statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-285099) on February 20, 2025 (the "2025 Registration Statement"). Pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act, the Registrant offset the total registration fees due under the 2024 Registration Statement and the 2025 Registration Statement of $3,853.50 and $2,801.34, respectively, from the fees previously paid in connection with the Prior Registration Statement. Pursuant to Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act, the Registrant hereby offsets the total registration fee due under this Registration Statement of $1,386.96 from the fees previously paid in connection with the Prior Registration Statement, with $4,912.37 remaining to be applied to future filings. Accordingly, no additional registration fee is being paid in connection with the filing of this Registration Statement.
