Asked in Copilot

How did the court rule on the motion to dismiss in Smith v. Jones, and when?

The court denied the motion to dismiss on March 3, 2025, finding the complaint states a claim for breach of the warehouse lease.1 Jones filed an answer three weeks later, denying that any rent is owed.2

  1. Order on motion to dismiss, p. 2 00012 Smith v. Jones / Orders
  2. Answer, p. 1 00012 Smith v. Jones / Pleadings
An example. Copilot writes the answer from passages in the firm's own documents, and names each one.

  • SlackAnswers in channels and with a slash command.
  • Your websiteSearch and written answers on your own WordPress site through the connector plugin, plus a REST API for your own apps.

Up and running in three steps

  1. Choose a plan and sign in

    Your catalog is ready as soon as payment goes through, with two-factor sign-in, or Sign in with Microsoft for firms on Microsoft 365.

  2. Connect what you already have

    Write catalog entries, and on Enterprise pick the OneDrive, SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox or Clio folders, or install the ProLaw Connector. Nothing has to move.

  3. Turn on the places people ask

    Copilot, Teams, ChatGPT, Slack, AI apps or your website. Each answer shows where it came from.

Made for law firms

Matters are folders, cases can be compared, every answer is cited to the page, and ethical walls follow your Microsoft 365 groups.

What did the settlement require in each case?

Smith v. Jones

Jones pays $18,000 in back rent in three monthly payments and repairs the loading dock by June 30.

Settlement agreement, p. 3

Hale v. Ortiz

Ortiz pays $42,500 in two instalments through an escrow agent; the first is released on April 1.

Settlement memorandum, p. 1

Brown v. Green

Nothing in this case's documents mentions a settlement.

An example. Each case answers only from its own documents.
  • A case in date order

    Ask for a case and get its documents from the complaint to the final order, with dates read from the documents themselves, or a detailed outline of what happened.

  • Compare cases side by side

    Ask one question of two to six cases at once. Each case answers only from its own documents, and a case with nothing on the question says so instead of borrowing from another.

  • Cited to the page

    Answers point to the document and the page or slide: "Final Judgment, p. 4", "pp. 4–5".

  • Ethical walls by Microsoft group

    Decide who may see each matter by Microsoft 365 group or by person. Everyone else never sees it: not in search, not in case lists, not in comparisons.

Find what your catalog doesn't know yet

Every unanswered question is a lead. The catalog gets better because people use it.

  1. See the questions people asked that your catalog couldn't answer.

  2. Send a question to the right expert on your team; they answer from their phone.

  3. Review the answer and publish it, so the next person gets it straight away.

Your documents stay yours

Built for firms that answer to clients, regulators and bar rules.

  • Files are never stored

    The Catalog Server reads documents where they are and keeps only their text, in memory. Nothing is written to its disk; remove a folder and its text is gone.

  • Only text leaves your network

    The ProLaw Connector reads documents inside your network and sends just their text, over HTTPS, signed with a key that belongs to your firm alone.

  • Every client kept apart

    Each firm has its own catalog, its own connection to the server and its own index. One firm's question can never reach another firm's documents.

Questions

Where do the answers come from?

From your catalog and the folders you connect, and nothing else unless you turn on web answers. Each answer lists its sources, down to the page.

Do our documents get copied to your servers?

No files are stored. The Catalog Server keeps the text of the folders you choose in memory, to search it. For ProLaw on your own servers, only the text is sent; the files stay inside your network.

Which AI writes the answers?

In Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude and other AI apps, the app you are using writes the answer from the passages your catalog returns. On your website and in Slack and Teams, written answers use your own Anthropic or OpenAI key; without one, people get the matching passages.

Can some people be kept away from some matters?

Yes. On Enterprise, matter access rules say which Microsoft 365 groups or people may see each matter or folder. Everyone else never sees it, in any app.

We run ProLaw on our own servers. What does IT need to do?

Install the ProLaw Connector on the ProLaw server and give it read access to the ProLaw database and document folder. It only makes outbound HTTPS calls, so there are no firewall openings or DNS records to add.

Can we try it first?

Ask for a walkthrough on the contact page. We will show a catalog answering real questions, with its sources, before you choose a plan.
