Discovery: the bane of many lawyer's existence. You end up knee-deep in a complex case, drowning in a sea of discovery requests and writing tedious responses as other case work piles up. Endless document requests, repetitive discovery response, and looming deadlines can quickly turn this phase into a productivity black hole.
But what if there was a way to streamline discovery, freeing you to focus on the strategic aspects of your case?
Enter Smokeball partner Briefpoint, a powerful tool designed to speed up your discovery process while working hand-in-hand with your existing Smokeball setup. Let’s cover how this integration can transform your workflow, boost efficiency, and help you achieve even better results for your clients.
Introducing Smokeball Partner Briefpoint
Discovery is a complex and time-consuming process that leaves many lawyers overwhelmed. Briefpoint makes your litigation practice easier through AI-powered software that drafts your discovery response and request documents for you. On average, lawyers can save three hours per discovery document with Briefpoint. Together, Smokeball and Briefpoint are revolutionizing the way legal firms handle discovery.
Briefpoint Speeds Up the Process of Drafting Discovery Documents
Discovery drafting can feel like running a marathon in quicksand. Hours slip away as you churn out pages of repetitive responses, wondering if there’s a better way to handle it.
The better way is Briefpoint, your AI-powered tool for discovery document creation. Here's how Briefpoint speeds up your discovery workflow:
- Automated Response Generation: Say goodbye to starting from scratch. Briefpoint analyzes incoming discovery requests and uses its vast built-in legal knowledge base to draft tailored objections, collect responses from your client, and incorporate it all in a Word document formatted pursuant to your jurisdiction’s rules and customs. This eliminates the need for manual drafting and long phone calls with your client, saving you significant time and effort.
- Objection Handling: Facing a barrage of discovery requests is overwhelming. Briefpoint streamlines this process by identifying and drafting objections to your opponents’ discovery requests in seconds.
- Propounding Discovery: Your Briefpoint account comes with over 700 requests for admission, interrogatories, and requests for production that you can drag and drop into sets of propounding discovery. Just select your case type and choose some legal theories and you’ll have a set of propounding discovery in your opponent’s lap within minutes. Need to narrowly tailor requests to your case? This summer Briefpoint will be launching its Propounding Discover update that will generate tailored sets of discovery based on any upload of your case’s pleading!
You'll spend less time wrestling with repetitive tasks and more time focusing on the strategic aspects of your case.
