What is an AI Case Research Agent?

An AI Case Research Agent helps legal professionals search court matters, retrieve case and docket information, verify records against connected sources, and organize findings for attorney review.

What sources does the agent use?

The workflow can use Docket Alarm-connected research for broad litigation discovery and PACER for appropriate federal court research. The source path depends on the court, jurisdiction, and request.

Can it search federal and state cases?

Yes, subject to the connected source's coverage. PACER is used for federal court records. Supported state research is handled through the broader litigation research workflow.

Can I search by party, keyword, court, or case type?

Yes. The agent is designed to accept party names, keywords, courts, jurisdictions, case types, and complete natural-language research questions.

Does it retrieve docket information?

When available through the connected source, the agent can retrieve docket details and organize relevant procedural information for review.

How does LawPilots reduce hallucination risk?

The research flow is designed around source retrieval and verification. A case should not be presented as verified unless the underlying record can be supported through the connected research source.

Does this replace attorney legal research?

No. It accelerates discovery, retrieval, verification, organization, and summarization. Attorneys remain responsible for authority validation, legal interpretation, citation checking, and strategy.

Move court filings into the right Clio matter, without the download-upload routine.
