Legal Intake and Paralegal Ops Official

Legalv1.0.013 components

Keep intake, deadlines, and document requests moving without ever crossing into legal advice. Justice, your AI paralegal assistant, screens every new client intake and flags it for a conflict check, drafts the standard document request list for a matter's practice area, prepares candidate deadlines that always require attorney confirmation before being relied upon, drafts client communications grounded in real matter records, and gives the practice a daily read on what needs attention. Compliance is built in at every step: no agent gives legal advice, assesses a matter's merits, predicts an outcome, or clears a conflict of interest, and no computed deadline is ever treated as final without a human confirming it, since a missed deadline is a malpractice risk. Everything else is draft-and-organize: nothing is sent to a client, opposing counsel, or a court without a human. Four tables hold your matters, client intake, document requests, and deadlines. A knowledge base holds your intake criteria, conflict policy, document standards, and compliance rules, which every screen and draft follows. Automations included: new intake is screened and flagged for conflict check on arrival, plus an optional daily practice digest. Works out of the box with the matters you add; connect Gmail to send client communications and Google Calendar for deadline tracking from the platform. Best first step: replace the placeholder screening criteria and compliance rules with your own and add a matter.

Installs in about 20 min, verified with a smoke test.

How the pack is wired

One named coworker, the agents it orchestrates, and the data, knowledge, and tools underneath. This is the real manifest, not a mockup.

The employee routes each request to the right worker. Specialists collaborate behind a router in the agentic team, while single-purpose agents handle focused jobs. Agents read and write the tables, ground answers in the knowledge bases, and act through your connected tools. Every write is gated and traced.

The full blueprint

Every agent's tasks, every table's schema, every trigger. Read it all before you sign in.

Justice

Precise, discreet, and professional, like a seasoned paralegal who never oversteps into legal advice and never treats a deadline as settled without attorney sign-off. Leads with what needs attention.

Case Support Desk routing

Internal, staff-facing team for the Legal Intake and Paralegal Ops pack. When staff need help with intake, documents, or deadlines, a routing manager sends the question to an Intake and Conflict Specialist, a Document Request Specialist, or a Deadline Support Specialist, each grounded in the practice standards. Advisory only: it never gives legal advice, never clears a conflict, and never confirms a deadline as final.

Client Portal routing

Client-facing portal for the Legal Intake and Paralegal Ops pack. A routing manager helps a client check their matter's administrative status, ask a general question about the process, or make a specific request. It never gives legal advice, never assesses a matter's merits or predicts an outcome, never confirms a deadline as final, and captures anything needing attorney judgment for a human to follow up.

How the install works

  1. Overview. You see the entire department before anything is created: every component, every tool it needs connected.
  2. Setup questions. A few plain-language choices set your sources, limits, and approval gates, so the department arrives configured for your rules, not defaults.
  3. Conflicts. Nothing in your workspace gets clobbered: anything that already exists, you keep, rename, or replace.
  4. Install. Tables → knowledge → agents → wiring → employee, in dependency order, ending in a smoke test that proves it works.
  5. Done. A working department, not a project plan. Open your new coworker and assign the first task.

Setup asks the governance question before anything runs: for example, should the employee require human approval before sending external emails?

Built on

Governance defaults

  • Per-table Read / Create / Update / Delete grants, Delete off by default
  • Approval gates on external writes (email, records) until you loosen them
  • Budget ceiling and run-trace on every component

Recruiting and Staffing Ops
Recruiting~20 min
Move candidates faster without cutting corners on fair hiring. Riley, your AI recruiting coordinator, screens each new candidate against the job's must-haves with must-have-by-must-have reasoning, coordinates interview scheduling by drafting availability requests, drafts honest candidate outreach and status updates, builds submittal packages for hiring managers or clients mapping experience to requirements, and gives the team a daily pipeline read. Screening never considers anything beyond skills and qualifications, and it never rejects a candidate or extends an offer; those stay human decisions. Everything else is draft-and-approve: candidate messages are prepared for a human to send, and interview times are proposed, never confirmed, by the agent. Four tables hold your job orders, candidates, interview scheduling, and pipeline metrics. A knowledge base holds your screening standards, submittal format, communication voice, and compliance guardrails, which every assessment and message follows. Automations included: new candidates are screened on arrival, plus an optional daily pipeline digest. Works out of the box with the roles and candidates you add; connect an ATS or job board later to sync candidates, and Gmail and Calendar to send outreach and confirm interviews from the platform. Best first step: replace the placeholder screening standards and compliance rules with your own and add an open job.
