The paralegal framework

Your case, pre-built before your lawyer's first bill.

LegalBud is your paralegal bud. It interviews you, builds your full case file, turns it into a video walkthrough a lawyer can watch in minutes, and matches you with the right lawyer — file in hand, history intact.

How it works

From "something happened" to a lawyer-ready case

Your bud does the paralegal legwork first, so the lawyer you eventually meet starts on day one — not from zero.

Tell your bud what happened

A guided interview pulls out every fact, date and detail of your case — the questions a paralegal would ask, in order, until nothing is missing.

Watch your case file build itself

Timeline, evidence, data points — everything you told your bud lands in one organized file you can always add to.

Get a video walkthrough of your case

LegalBud turns the facts into a scenario video — a guided tour of your whole case a lawyer watches in minutes instead of reading for hours.

Get matched with the right lawyer

Your file and your video go to a matched lawyer in the marketplace — full history attached, handoff complete.

What your bud does

A paralegal's worth of work, before the meter starts

Guided case interview

Every fact of your case, drawn out with the right questions in the right order — the way a good paralegal takes a statement.

One data flow

Everything about your case lives in a single stream — flowing up and down between you and your lawyer. Nothing gets lost between calls and emails.

Case video walkthroughs

Your case as a watchable scenario — a video work tool. A lawyer absorbs it faster than any stack of documents.

Lawyer marketplace

Get matched with a lawyer suited to your case — with your complete file already attached to the introduction.

Reputation on the record

Lawyer track records are tracked — history you can actually see before you choose who takes your case.

Handoff-ready history

When your lawyer takes over, they receive everything — your full case history, already organized. No re-explaining your story from scratch.

For lawyers

Cases arrive pre-built.

Skip the intake grind. The client LegalBud sends you has already been interviewed, organized and briefed.

Video briefs over paperwork. Watch the whole case over coffee — timeline, facts and scenarios in one walkthrough.

Complete files, zero intake. Client history, data points and evidence arrive in one clean stream.

More practice, less paralegaling. The legwork is done before you bill a minute — you start where it counts.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers

Is LegalBud a law firm? +

No. LegalBud is a paralegal framework — it does the preparation: the interview, the case file, the data, the video brief, and the match. The legal work is done by a licensed lawyer you're matched with. LegalBud doesn't provide legal advice.

How does the lawyer actually get my case? +

When you're matched, your lawyer receives your complete file — interview, timeline, evidence, data points — plus the video walkthrough of your case. They watch it, absorb it, and pick up where your bud left off.

What happens to my data? +

Your data lives in one stream that you own. It flows up and down between you and your lawyer — and it only goes where you send it. Your history stays with your case, so it's always ready to hand off.

Why a video of my case? +

Because a lawyer watching your case is faster (and cheaper for you) than a lawyer reading it. The video walkthrough turns your facts into a scenario — timeline, players, events — that a lawyer can consume in minutes and act on immediately.
