The litigation layer
Your practice management handles billing. CourtFlow handles your court filings.
Some tools below now scan your email too — but they still hand you a date without the local rule or the math behind it. CourtFlow reads the court's email, applies your rule, and shows the arithmetic. It isn't a replacement for your practice management software — it's the litigation automation layer they were never built to be.
Side by side
Different tools. Different jobs.
Plays well with others
Works alongside what you already use.
No migration required. No duplicate data entry. CourtFlow monitors your court emails and handles the litigation-specific workflow that general tools can't.
Keep your practice management software for billing, CRM, and client intake. Add CourtFlow for everything between the courthouse and your inbox.
Head to head
Coming from a docketing or deadline tool?
Rules-based calculators ask you to type the trigger date. CourtFlow reads the court's email, extracts the deadline, and shows the rule it applied.
The gap your current software doesn't fill.
Court emails pile up
Without CourtFlow: Practice management tools manage your contacts, not your court notifications. Every e-service email still requires manual download, review, and data entry.
With CourtFlow: CourtFlow processes every e-service email automatically — extracts case details, uploads documents to Drive, creates deadlines, and briefs your team before you open your inbox.
Deadlines hide in PDFs
Without CourtFlow: They let you create calendar events manually. But first you have to read the filing, identify the deadline, look up the applicable rule, and calculate the date.
With CourtFlow: CourtFlow reads the filing, identifies every deadline, applies the correct rule-based calculation (including Florida’s 2025 amendments — see our Florida rules reference), and creates calendar events with reminder chains.
Hearing prep is on you
Without CourtFlow: They store your documents. Preparing for a hearing means manually pulling filings, looking up judge procedures, and assembling your own prep notes.
With CourtFlow: CourtFlow auto-delivers an AI-generated hearing prep brief 48 hours before every hearing — with judge procedures, relevant filings, and case context.
