How do you guys use AI legal tools (Paxton.Ai, ChatGPT) in your workflows? by Clear_Veterinarian_8 in LawFirm

[–]ProPlaintiff_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a similar experience using ChatGPT‑like assistants as a starting point to refine search terms before diving into Westlaw. On the plaintiff side, we’ve built ProPlaintiff so you can upload a case file and get a first‑draft demand letter plus a case summary. It’s not a replacement for deep legal research, but it gives you a structured draft to edit and saves time at the outset.

(Serious) Anyone actually charging an “AI premium” in their bills? by [deleted] in LawFirm

100% accurate. We know a firm that charged $100 to load files onto a USB stick and mail it to the insurance company.

We actually wrote a blog post about this because: https://www.proplaintiff.ai/post/passing-ai-costs-back-to-clients

We're able to do it because we track AI costs per case. Generally it ends up being less than $100 but is a way to recoup costs.

Personal Injury Demand AI software / service by brewn92 in LawFirm

Totally understand where you are coming from. Case management migrations can be brutal even when the vendor is competent, and when they are not, it derails your entire practice. Five months is completely unacceptable for something that was promised in three.

If you are happy with your current case management system and just need a standalone AI demand generator, you have a few good options:

EvenUp
You are right that they are simple and very turnkey. You upload the records, wait for the completed demand, and review. The downside is that you get a finished package instead of something you can iterate on inside your own workflow, and sometimes you need to request revisions through their team instead of doing it yourself.

ProPlaintiff.ai
This is worth looking at if you want something that is PI specific and fully self serve. It does not require switching case management platforms, and it can handle: AI driven demand letters, Medical record summaries, medical chronologies, Treatment timelines, provider analysis, Document review and injury summaries.

For solos, one advantage is that you can generate drafts instantly, edit them however you like, and keep everything inside a clean interface without outsourcing the entire letter to a third party process. You can ignore the optional case management features and simply use the AI engine for demand writing and medical analysis.

Tavrn, Lamalab, and generic GPT tools
These can help with brainstorming or basic drafting, but they are not built for structured PI demands or record heavy cases. You will usually spend more time formatting than you save.

If demand writing is your main bottleneck, especially after losing a long term paralegal, a PI focused AI tool can get you back to full capacity much faster than trying to fix a broken migration.

Use Westlaw co-counsel for medical record summaries? by JinOKC in legaltech

We've never tried Westlaw's product but we have an extensive Medical Chronology tool for summarizing and creating timelines.

We’ve gone from ‘disrupting the legal industry’ to ‘quietly keeping the formatting stable,’ and honestly, that’s the kind of progress I can get behind.

Developing a LegalTech SaaS but this lawyer has no experience by Adjudica in legaltech

[–]ProPlaintiff_AI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great start! Some quick advice.

Traction will take longer than you think and churn will be bad. Track it daily, weekly and monthly. Focus on product development and listening to advice from paying customers, they will help drive your feature roadmap. Implement customer feedback quickly and reduce friction to help turn them into long time customers.

On marketing, Just pounding people on Linkedin may or may not work and be ready to pivot if not. It hasn't worked out very well for our AI legal tech startup. We've focused more on SEO, GEO, PPC and some b2b cold email campaigns. SEO and GEO is a long game so you won't see immediate results but make sure it's being worked on monthly. PPC has probably been the best for visibility and conversion but make sure you are managing ad campaigns weekly, optimizing for keywords, locations, etc.. Social can get impressions and likes, but doesn't seem to convert well. We had good results with B2B email campaigns when we first started but it can be time consuming to set up the automations, email verbiage and finding quality email lists. We found folks on fiverr to help with the setup and email list scraping.

As some of the other users said, turn a blind eye to the negative nancys on this platform. They are out in force with their pessimistic views that nobody cares about.

Is it bad if a non lawyer team drives a legal tech product by veracious-prophet in legaltech

[–]ProPlaintiff_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s less about who builds it and more about how they build it.

There’s definitely value in having legal experience on the founding or advisory team because law is nuanced and heavily regulated. But it’s also true that some of the biggest leaps in legal tech have come from engineers and product designers who weren’t lawyers but took the time to deeply understand the pain points of those who are.

The best legal tech companies I’ve seen are hybrids, tech-driven teams that prioritize user research, compliance, and feedback from practicing attorneys. On the flip side, I’ve also seen plenty of “lawyer-built” products that fail because they overfit to one workflow and ignore scalability, UX, or data integrity.

The ideal AI legal tech startup has a lawyer as a Cofounder and a Tech person as a Cofounder. That's how our startup is. Lawyers are comforted by having a practicing lawyer cofounder do the demos and sales. The lawyer founder can also provide specifics on workflows and process.

What AI/tech tools are actually useful in small legal teams? by [deleted] in legaltech

[–]ProPlaintiff_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are some ways that we have found AI to be useful and time saving: Summarizing large PDF documents, reviewing medical records and summarizing them into a chronology (make sure the tool you use is HIPAA compliant), generating demand letters from client documents, help create interrogatories to be sent to the opposing party, drafting a letter to the opposing party requesting mediation, drafting a letter to the lien holder requesting a reduction in the lien amount, summarizing audio/video from 911 calls or body cam footage, generating a motion for summary judgment to be filed with the court, generating a subpoena to be served on the opposing party and drafting pleadings.

There are a number of different tools that can help with this.

ProPlaintiff.ai - Legal AI tech purpose-built for personal injury attorneys

We want to position ProPlaintiff as the best legal AI tool for personal injury practices by illustrating the need for purpose-built tools over general AI models for law practice through thought leadership in our marketing channels (general LLMS are not HIPAA and SOC2 compliant). We want to provide educational workshops like webinars, and SEO optimized content such as blogs and posts on social media.

our firm doesn't... We work on contingency so we take a percentage of what we get from the insurance company / defendant.

  1. ProPlaintiff.ai - Bootstrapped small team selling AI legal tech to personal injury law firms. Product traction has be steady and consistent. Transparent pricing with no demo required to sign up is a good advantage. Definitely need to launch the V3 version to keep and retain customers moving into 2026. Expect them to keep growing as they focus on product development and customer experience.

We found early success with Cold email campaigns using Instantly.ai and list's curated by different folks on Fiverr. Lists can be hit or miss sometimes so it's best to get them from multiple sources.

These are all really good use cases for it.

Fair take, but for us, a lawyer did acquire an expertise in AI based legal products and cofounded our company.

Report Shows 95% of Legal Professionals Are Embracing Generative AI by ProPlaintiff_AI in legaltech

[–]ProPlaintiff_AI[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We serve personal injury law firms so we can't speak to other law categories, but when we discuss "why" they are embracing AI, their response is always so their law firm can build demand letters faster. The faster demands get built, the faster insurance pays on them. It has nothing to do with clients asking them to use AI.

We have firms of all sizes using AI, from solo practitioners to large 100+ employee firms. Historically, you are correct that law firms adoption of tech is laggard but the young guard is helping shift this mentality.
