How it works

From brief to filing.

Brief it the way you would brief a junior. What comes back is the document itself, not notes about one.

  1. 01

    Give the brief

    The parties, the court, what happened and what your client wants. Plain words are enough.
    Counsel
    Draft a writ of summons in the High Court of Lagos State for Mrs Folake Adeyemi against Lekki Gardens Estate Ltd. She paid ₦45,000,000 for a terrace in 2022 and it was never delivered. Claim a refund, interest and damages.

    Counsel

    Drafting the writ of summons now — it will open in the Draft pane.

  2. 02

    It works out what the document needs

    The court and division, how each party is described, and the reliefs your client is claiming — taken from your brief.
    Counsel
    • Court — High Court of Lagos State, Ikeja Judicial Division
    • Claimant — Mrs Folake Adeyemi
    • Defendant — Lekki Gardens Estate Limited
    • Reliefs — refund of ₦45,000,000, interest, and general damages
    • Document — writ of summons

  3. 03

    The document, on its own

    The draft opens beside the conversation in court form — the heading, the parties, the claim — with nothing to tidy away.

Questions

Questions lawyers ask first.

Will I still need to check it?
Yes, always. Counsel gives you a complete first draft; your judgment is what goes before the court or to the client.
Is it Nigerian law, or a foreign template?
Nigerian. Drafts are written for Nigerian courts and practice, and Counsel draws on a library of Nigerian statutes and rules of court as it works.
Can I change the draft?
Yes. It opens in the Draft pane, where you edit it like any document, then download it as Word or PDF.
Is my client's information used to train AI?
No. We don't use your content to train AI models, and it's encrypted in transit and at rest.

Your next draft is one instruction away.
