Law firm AI software for South African firms

A LegalBrain firm account is one enterprise account for the whole firm. Every person has their own workspace with the practice tools, organised in ranks, so the right people can oversee, review and reassign work.

Ranks and oversight

  • Four ranks: Director, Senior Associate, Associate and Attorney.
  • Each rank oversees everyone below it: they can open a junior’s workspace, edit their work and move matters or drafts between people.
  • Juniors submit matters, drafts or invoices for review; a superior approves the work or returns it with a note.
  • Every oversight action is recorded in the firm log with the person’s name, rank and the time.
  • Directors add people, set ranks, reset passwords and deactivate accounts. Work is never deleted with an account.

The tools every workspace gets

  • Clients, cases and documents.
  • Court diary and filing deadlines.
  • AI drafting assistant and templates.
  • Early warnings before court dates and deadlines (for example 7, 3 and 1 days before a filing deadline), which you can change per entry.
  • A date helper that counts court days or calendar days around South African public holidays, with an option to leave out 16 December to 15 January. Check the result against the rule or order.
  • Other firms, attorneys and counsel saved in a contact book, found again by typing three letters.
  • Court Online and CaseLines links saved per matter, a pre-filing check of the document, and a record of each filing. You file on the court system yourself; LegalBrain does not submit documents for you.
  • Guided tours that point at each button while you do the steps yourself.
  • South African legal research with linked sources.
  • Invoices that carry the firm’s practice and banking details.
  • A shared workflow board for tasks.
