The whole case file, in one timeline.
Upload the police report, witness statements, and evidence. legales reads every document and builds one organized, sourced timeline of facts, people, and evidence — so you're not re-reading the file to find what's already in it.
Mockup: a fictional robbery case showing a police report and two witness statements with a time discrepancy automatically flagged on the timeline.
Case files don't arrive as one document. Your software shouldn't pretend they do.
Pieces, not a file
The police report arrives first. Statements and evidence follow days or weeks later — rarely as one document.
Contradictions buried in volume
A detail that doesn't match across hundreds of pages is easy to miss under deadline pressure — and costly if it's missed.
Deadlines that don't move
Hearing dates, filing windows, and detention review periods — missing one isn't a formatting error, it's a client's case.
From case file to working record, in three steps.
Police report, witness statements, evidence — PDF, DOCX, or scanned pages. No templates to fill.
People, facts, claims, and a timeline — not a folder of separate files. Contradictions get flagged, never silently overwritten.
Hearing dates, filing windows, and tasks become a live dashboard — not a file you have to re-read.
Built for defense work, not retrofitted for it.
Every feature maps to something that happens in an actual criminal matter.
One record for the whole case
Every filed document — report, statements, evidence — updates one running record: people, facts, claims, and a timeline. Not a folder of separate files.
Contradictions get flagged, not buried
A new statement that doesn't match what's on file is flagged for you to resolve — never silently overwritten.
Answers with the exact source
Ask a question about the file and get an answer sourced from its own documents — the clause or page cited, not a guess.
Research support, grounded in the file
Elle can also help with legal research on the matter, citing law and precedent for what's in the record. It answers from the file — it doesn't decide the case.
Your judgment is never overwritten
Any fact you edit locks. The AI can't quietly change it again — it's staff, not a decision-maker.
Anonymized before any AI call
Documents are anonymized before any AI call, and de-anonymized after. Built for files where confidentiality isn't optional.
Deadlines you can't miss
Hearing dates, filing deadlines, and detention review windows become a tracked task list — synced two-way with Asana and Google Drive.
Connect your own AI assistant
legales exposes matters, deadlines, and documents as MCP tools — connect Claude Code or any MCP-compatible assistant.
A case file, reconciled.
A fictional robbery case, for illustration only — no real people, courts, or case numbers.
Drop in the police report, witness statements, and evidence — PDF, DOCX, or scanned pages.
Two witness statements don't agree on the time of the incident. legales flags the conflict instead of silently picking one.
Every fact lands on one sourced timeline — reviewed, not buried in a folder.
Built so a client's criminal file stays privileged.
Anonymized before AI
Documents are anonymized before any AI call, and de-anonymized after — including names and identifying details in witness statements.
You control who sees the file
Each account is isolated — your case files aren't visible outside your own login.
Humans stay in control
Any fact you edit locks — the AI never overwrites your judgment, and it never decides the case.
