From a Pile of Documents to a Clear Discovery Table - Without Opening Every File

Lizzy's new document mapping skill turns a document collection into a precise mapping table for document discovery, with a legal assessment for every document, in the columns you choose

In document discovery, every document is waiting for a decision

Anyone who has managed document discovery and inspection proceedings knows the moment: folders full of emails, contracts, letters, and files, each one demanding an answer. Does it support the client's position? Does it hurt it? And what is the right thing to do with it in the discovery process? Going through every document, recording and reasoning each call, takes long days of legal judgment. Lizzy's document mapping skill takes that work a step forward. It reads the documents, understands them considering your case, and hands you an organized mapping table that's ready to work with.

Start with the case, then the documents

To assess a document, you first need to understand the boundaries of the dispute. That's why Lizzy first asks for the pleadings, which define those boundaries, and from them it identifies the parties and each one's procedural role. One click to confirm which party you represent, upload the documents to be mapped, and the work can begin. Before Lizzy starts analyzing, you choose how the table will look. You can use the default columns or define your own to fit the case.

More than mapping: a legal assessment for every document

This is where Lizzy makes the difference. The description of each document is detailed and comprehensive enough that you understand what it says without opening it. After the description, Lizzy assesses whether the document helps or harms the represented party's arguments and explains the call in focused legal language. From there it moves to a discovery recommendation, taking a defensive approach aimed at protecting the client's interests. A document that supports your position is marked for inclusion. A document that undermines it is marked, by default, as not to be included, with the legal justification for that recommendation alongside it, such as privilege, lack of relevance, or unreasonable burden.

When a document raises a weighty legal question, for example correspondence that may be privileged, Lizzy doesn't decide for you. It flags the document as "requires attorney review," so the decision stays with you.

The result is an organized, classified Excel file, with a short summary in the chat alongside it: how many documents were mapped, how many were classified as helpful, how many as harmful, and how many need your review.

The bottom line

Lizzy's document mapping skill turns the review of a document collection into an orderly process: the pleadings provide the context, the documents are ingested, and you get a table with a description, assessment, reasoning, and recommendation for every document, without giving up the attorney's judgment where it matters.

For litigation teams who want to reach document discovery better prepared, clearer, and faster, this is exactly the skill for you.
