Response Petition to a Lawsuit: Ready in Minutes with AI
For a lawyer, one of the most stressful and time-consuming tasks is preparing a comprehensive and persuasive response petition within a short timeframe. It requires analyzing every claim made by the plaintiff one by one and responding to each with legal grounds and case law. Lextum AI fully automates this process, giving you a strategic advantage.
Challenges of the Traditional Process
Time Pressure: The response period is usually short (2 weeks).
Detail Overload: Every claim in a multi-page petition must be addressed without omission.
Research Burden: Finding the right law article and Court of Cassation decision to refute each claim can take hours.
Risk of Error: There's a risk of overlooking an important claim amidst the workload.
Lextum AI's Revolutionary Solution: Generating a Petition from a Petition
Lextum AI offers an innovative feature we call "Petition from a Petition Generation" that eliminates these challenges.
How Does the Process Work?
Upload: Drag and drop the plaintiff's lawsuit petition (PDF, Word, or the format downloaded from UYAP) into the Lextum AI platform.
AI Analysis: The AI scans the document in seconds. It digitizes the text with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology and analyzes the content with Natural Language Processing (NLP). The AI identifies:
- The plaintiff's demands (Compensation, divorce, receivables, etc.).
- The facts and claims put forward.
- The legal evidence and law articles cited.
Draft Generation: After the analysis is complete, Lextum AI provides you with a complete Response Petition draft. This draft includes:
- Procedural Objections: Potential objections such as jurisdiction, venue, or statute of limitations.
- Responses on the Merits: Structured responses to each of the plaintiff's claims.
- Counter-Arguments: The AI suggests logical and legal arguments to refute the claims.
- Case Law Support: Most importantly, it automatically finds and integrates current and relevant Court of Cassation or Regional Court of Appeal decisions that support each argument.
- Evidence List: It suggests a list of counter-evidence you should present.
A Practical Example: Employment Lawsuit
Let's say you are representing an employer and have received a lawsuit from a former employee demanding severance pay and other employment receivables.
You Upload the Petition: Lextum AI detects the plaintiff's claim that "overtime pay was not paid."
AI Generates the Response: The system creates a section in the draft response petition as follows:
> "The plaintiff's claim for overtime pay is unjust and made in bad faith. The plaintiff signed the payroll slips every month without reservation. As stated in the decision of the 9th Civil Chamber of the Court of Cassation, No. E. 2021/..., K. 2022/..., if the payrolls are signed without reservation, overtime work can only be proven with written evidence. The plaintiff has no such evidence."
This way, a workload that would take hours turns into valuable time you can spend reviewing your strategy and consulting with your client. Step into the future of defense with Lextum AI today.
