Authority comparison table
From the opinions, statutes and regulations counsel selected, and only those, the researching lawyer gets one side-by-side table: each authority's court, date, stated issue, operative words, posture and separate opinions, quoted with pinpoints, and a list of every quotation to check. The lawyer decides what applies.

Case chronology from the matter documents
From the document set the handling attorney approved, the paralegal or associate prepares a draft chronology for that attorney: each event with its source and Bates number or page, document dates kept apart from event dates, conflicting accounts side by side, and the gaps. What matters is left to the attorney.

Citation and quotation check
Before a draft is filed or relied on, the associate or paralegal has one worksheet: every citation, quotation and record cite counted, then set against the sources supplied, and every good-law check left for the lawyer. No result calls anything confirmed; each says only what was compared.

Client billing summary
Before an invoice goes out, the billing coordinator has a summary the client can read: fees by timekeeper, task and phase, expenses and write-downs, tied to the pre-bill. Every entry that breaks the client's billing guidelines reaches the responsible attorney as a decision, with the amount at stake.

Closed-file retention review
When closed matter files are ready for records review, the records officer has a draft list for supervising counsel in four groups: files whose period has run under the firm's own schedule, files under a hold, client originals not yet returned, and files that cannot be assessed. Nothing is destroyed or moved.

Conflict search record
Before the responsible attorney decides on a new matter, the conflicts clerk has a draft search record: every name searched with its aliases and related entities, every possible match with its source matter and why it matched, the names still to search, and the limits of the search. It clears nothing.

Consultation fact record
After a first consultation, the intake attorney gets a draft fact record: each statement marked by how the client knows it, each date by how exactly it was given, the outcome the client wants set apart, every document mentioned but not supplied, and questions to choose from. It names no legal issue.

Deposition transcript summary
Before the next deposition, a motion or trial, the attorney has a draft page-line summary of the transcript, arranged by the topics they named: every point cited, every exhibit and objection logged, and every place the testimony differs flagged without a label. The attorney decides what it means.

Discovery requests and commitments register
Through discovery, the litigation paralegal keeps one register for the handling attorney: each request and its response in the exact words served, the Bates ranges produced against it, every supplement promised in correspondence with its date as written, and the promises now overdue. The attorney decides what it means.

Document production index and summaries
From a production review counsel has cleared, the paralegal prepares a draft for that counsel: an index of every document by Bates range, a short summary of each, every statement cited to its Bates page, missing documents and differing passages listed, and anything matching counsel's screen list held by number only.

Filing package check
Before a filing goes to the attorney for signature, the paralegal gets every item on the firm’s own checklist for that court and judge marked pass or open: caption against the docket, length and format, certificates, exhibits, signature blocks and service. The attorney decides and signs.

Hearing preparation pack
Before a set hearing, the arguing attorney has one draft pack: the hearing as the notice states it, the docket history, each order's directives quoted, each witness's prior statements with page cites, exhibit and checklist status as the firm records them, and an open-items list. The attorney decides every argument.

Matter budget and status summary
The responsible partner sees one matter whole: scope, phases against their dates, the budget against fees to date and the projected total, a red, amber or green status with the rule behind it, risks and next actions with owners. Built from the time export and the matter plan, never a view on the merits.

Month-end close checklist
Before the month ends, your controller holds the whole close on one page: every task with its owner, its date and what it waits on, the chain that sets the close date, and each gap already written as a question. Entries are prepared for approval, never posted.

Prebill exception review
Before the billing attorney opens a prebill, the billing coordinator has every awkward entry marked: rates that differ from the firm's rate table, possible duplicates, entries outside the client's billing guidelines, unclear narratives and expenses without support, each sent to the person who acts next.

Privilege log entry check
Before a draft privilege log goes to review counsel, the paralegal gets an entry-by-entry check against counsel’s approved format and role map, and a list of logged documents’ attachments with no entry. It checks metadata only: review counsel makes every privilege call and writes or approves every description.

Research plan for counsel
Before an associate or paralegal starts on a partner's research question, they hold a one-to-two-page plan: the question split into sub-questions, the stated facts against each, the firm's own notes to read first, where to search and with what terms, and the gaps. Leads, not authorities: nothing is named from memory.
