Every Citation, Ready to File
Designate testimony, exchange with opposing counsel, and put it in front of another witness or the court. Never waste time searching for the same evidence twice.
Ten Lines Here, Five Lines There
A single paragraph in a summary judgment brief might rely on ten lines from one deposition, five from another, and multiple exhibits. Multiply that complexity across an entire brief, and then repeat the process for the hearing and the trial.
Everlaw’s Storybuilder eliminates this repetitive work by keeping cited testimony permanently anchored to its source. Mark a designation once on the transcript, and it flows seamlessly wherever you need it—straight into your designation list, your filed brief, or your team’s master timeline.
From Transcript to Filing
Gain a Comprehensive Understanding of Your Case
Get day-one understanding of your matter. You can’t search for a keyword you don’t know exists. Instead, ask a question and let Deep Dive surface the documents that answer it—even the ones nobody has opened yet. Every answer includes a direct excerpt, so you can verify the context before it ever goes into your brief.
Command the Facts of Your Case
Put a fact down as soon as you know it, with or without the document that proves it. Build targeted timelines to visualize where evidence aligns, clashes, or falls short. Every update automatically syncs across every draft. The more complex the case, the less of it you have to hold in your head.
Designate Directly on the Transcript
Enter designation mode with a single keystroke to instantly select testimony. Assign affirmative or counter designations by party using automated, case-wide color coding. Add custom notes to capture your reasoning, track every designation in the side panel, and export your list directly from the transcript.
Import Every Party’s Designations at Once
Import a designation spreadsheet covering several parties and several transcripts in a single pass – each one lands on the right line by its page-and-line citation. Export as a CSV across transcripts, or as one transcript with party colours preserved and bars down the side showing where designations overlap.
Quote the Record with Instant Citations
After days of testimony, the voices blur together—leaving you with the facts, but not the source. Instead of opening transcripts individually, search or ask in plain language to scan all testimony at once. Everlaw delivers exact snippets, context, and synced video in a single view. Highlight text to instantly capture precise citations, and auto-link drafts directly to the source.
Cite the Record From Inside Word
Type or paste a Bates number and Everlaw for Word links it to the source document – including in briefs you wrote months ago. A task pane lists everything you’ve cited and opens any of it in Quick Review. Citations print as ordinary text, so exporting to PDF gives you court-ready output with nothing to strip out.
