Skip to main contentWhat is the Assistant?
The Assistant is your built-in partner inside every Legora project. It’s designed for legal professionals who need accurate, fast, and context-aware outputs—whether you’re drafting, researching, or analyzing complex material.
With the Assistant, you can:
-
Summarise long witness statements or contracts into clear, digestible notes
-
Draft client updates, internal memos, or tailored legal documents
-
Search across legal databases, the web, or your own uploaded files
-
Extract and structure insights from large volumes of material
Think of it as an interactive workspace that grows with your project.
Using the Assistant
Using the Assistant is as simple as asking a question or giving it a task. For example:
-
“Summarise this witness statement in bullet points.”
-
“Rewrite this email in a more formal tone.”
-
“Find recent rulings on constructive dismissal in the UK.”
You can upload documents alongside your prompts, refine answers by asking follow-ups, and even download responses as files. Every conversation is saved as a Thread, so you can revisit or continue your work later.
Where to find the Assistant
You’ll see the Assistant in the left-hand sidebar whenever you open a project or in “Home” found in the left sidebar. Just start typing to begin a conversation—no setup required.
