Questions

Questions, answered.

What people most often ask before they start. Every other answer is in the Help Center.

Lawpal AI is a legal workspace built for Nigerian law. One account gives you two products that work together:

  • Counsel — an AI legal assistant. Ask a question, research the law with citations, draft a document, review a contract clause by clause, or reason through a problem, all in one conversation.
  • Chambers — practice management. Matters and their court record, the diary, tasks, documents, billing, clients and reports, for a solo practitioner or a whole firm.

Chambers feeds Counsel: when you ask Counsel about a matter, it already knows the court record, the next hearing and what's outstanding. Add-ins that bring Counsel into Word, Gmail and Zoho are on the way.
