SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you prepare for a witness examination by turning the case theory and relevant documents into a structured cross-examination outline and targeted witness preparation questions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-examination / outline building: Organises background, good facts, difficult facts, credibility issues, and a pivot fact sequence around the case theory.
  • Document-driven preparation: Pulls and organises witness-related documents (authored by, sent to/from, or mentioning the witness) from the declared document sources.
  • Impeachment & credibility surfacing: Highlights prior inconsistent statements and credibility material to support confrontation points.
  • Procedural and safety guardrails: Applies an explicit conflicts gate (refuses if the matter slug isn’t intaken), includes destination checks for privileged work-product materials, and enforces record fidelity rules (no fabricated quotes/pinpoints).
