For Litigators
Case Management Built for Litigators
Litigation moves fast. Between court deadlines, deposition schedules, and filing requirements, missing a single date can mean sanctions or malpractice exposure. Barristr gives litigators a purpose-built platform that tracks every deadline on a color-coded calendar, organizes every document in structured folders, and uses AI to draft motions and briefs — so you spend more time practicing law and less time managing your calendar.
Calendar & Deadline Tracking
Barristr's calendar tracks every litigation deadline with 6 color-coded event types: Hearing, Deadline, Meeting, Consultation, Filing, and Other. View your calendar by Day, Week, Month, or Agenda to plan ahead. Use personal calendars for your own schedule and firm-wide calendars for shared deadlines. Every deadline event is linked to its matter, so you always have context. Clients can request consultation appointments from your website, and those requests appear directly in your calendar.

Litigation Document Management
Litigation generates enormous volumes of documents — pleadings, motions, exhibits, correspondence, and evidence. Barristr organizes everything in a Client > Matter folder hierarchy with version history for every file. Upload via drag and drop, file browser, or direct scan. Global search with full-text indexing finds any document across all matters in seconds. Role-based access ensures confidential case materials are only visible to authorized team members. The Recovery Bin retains deleted items for 60 days.

AI-Powered Motion & Brief Drafting
Drafting motions and briefs is time-consuming work that follows predictable patterns. Barristr's AI drafting engine generates first drafts of common litigation documents — motions, letters, memoranda, correspondence, and settlement proposals — using your matter data as context. The AI is jurisdiction-aware and includes confidence indicators so you know how reliable each output is. Every AI-generated document is clearly marked as a draft requiring attorney review. RAG-powered search helps you find relevant information across your case files, and document summarization digests lengthy exhibits quickly.

The Timekeeper daily panel shows your entries at a glance, with weekly and monthly views for review. Batch actions let you process multiple entries at once, and CSV export feeds your accounting system. Filter by matter, date range, or team member.
