Map case stages and record inputs
Pleadings, correspondence, discovery, medical records, and exhibits enter the stages your team uses, with the source files retained for later review.
Litigation workflows
AI legal workflow for litigation, configured around your firm
Nexum helps litigation teams move from pleadings and case records to sourced case work, attorney review, and approved work product without separating the output from its supporting documents.
We map how a case moves through your firm, then configure record handling, discovery or motion work, templates, and review controls around that path. Attorneys keep responsibility for legal judgment and anything filed, served, sent, or relied on.
How Nexum configures to your firm
Configure the workflow around your firm's standards.
Define source and review standards
The firm identifies the record types, source requirements, templates, and review points that should govern candidate facts, issues, chronologies, and drafts.
Configure discovery and motion work
Discovery response workspaces and motion-preparation tasks build from the case record while preserving the citations and review state needed for attorney verification.
Control release of work product
Attorneys review cited content, objections, arguments, and signature details before deciding whether a draft is ready to download, export, file, serve, or send.
Synthetic workflow exampleNo client data
From pleadings to attorney-approved work product
This example follows one synthetic litigation case through sourced case work and a release decision. It demonstrates workflow and control points, not a client result.
- Stage 1
Intake and pleadings
A synthetic complaint, answer, correspondence, and record set enter one case workspace. The original files remain available while the team identifies the case stage and review questions.
- Stage 2
Documents and sourced facts
Nexum classifies the records and organizes candidate dates, facts, issues, and chronology entries with the source document and page reference needed for attorney verification.
- Stage 3
Discovery or motion work
The case team carries the reviewed record into a discovery response workspace or motion-preparation task, using the firm's templates and playbook language as working material.
- Stage 4
Attorney review gate
An attorney checks cited items, edits or rejects candidate content, reviews objections and signature details where applicable, and decides whether the draft is ready for approval.
- Stage 5
Approved work product
After review, an approved discovery response or finalized pleading can move to download or export. The attorney still decides what is filed, served, sent, or relied on.
Workflow configuration
Nexum configures with the firm
Case stages, record types, source requirements, templates, playbook language, and the review-to-export path are mapped to the firm's working process.
Professional responsibility
Attorney judgment
Attorneys decide which facts to rely on, which objections or arguments to make, how a draft changes, and whether work is ready to file, serve, send, or use in strategy.

Attorney review and supervision
Attorneys stay in control.
Nexum organizes source-backed candidate work and supports controlled review steps. Attorneys decide what the record supports, what arguments or objections to make, how drafts should change, and whether any work product is ready to leave the firm.
FAQ
Questions firms ask before a pilot
What does Nexum configure for a litigation firm?
Nexum maps case stages, record types, source requirements, templates, playbook language, and review-to-export controls to the firm's working process. The firm supplies and approves those operating choices.
What remains attorney judgment?
Attorneys determine which facts to rely on, which legal positions to take, what belongs in a pleading or discovery response, and whether work is ready to file, serve, send, or use in strategy.
Does the synthetic example contain client data?
No. It uses generic pleadings, correspondence, and record types to demonstrate source references, review states, and attorney control points without a client, case identifier, or customer outcome.
How does discovery fit into the litigation workflow?
Discovery is one stage in the broader case path. Nexum supports response workspaces, source review, objection and signature review, and approval before export. The attorney decides what is served and whether further discovery or motion work is appropriate.
