As the client's case is processed all important activities and all case documents are automatically tracked and linked to the client's master case record, so anyone with sufficient access rights can quickly review the case. Depending upon local laws and the agreement of the participants, all telephone calls, court and administrative hearings and meetings are also digitally recorded and linked to the case record. Pleadings, demand letters, discovery and transactional documents and the like are all generated by AI enhanced document assembly software. The tedium and repetition of what now is an inescapable part of law practice is streamlined. Other times-consuming aspects of the advocate's professional life are also streamlined.
Much less time is spent away from the office.
Almost every test in the law library text is available on-line. All but the poorest of rural, state courts now schedule most hearings by video conference as do most state and federal administrative agencies. All legal aid advocates will have access to vast collections of proprietary brief banks with AI enabled retrieval software, so even when working on less common, and perhaps more complex cases, advocates can quickly have access to the shared legal aid memory bank. When a client's case request is processed, any potential conflict of interests are routinely and quickly identified early on in the intake process. Where there are no conflicts, but the information management system automatically identifies that the adverse party has a previous history with another or the same client, and that previous case may have a bearing on the current client's request, this information will be effectively conveyed to the intake specialist and whoever else represents this client.
