Frequently Asked Questions

What is a litigation timeline and when do I use it?01

A litigation timeline is a visual chronology of the key procedural stages in a lawsuit — from the initial complaint through discovery, motions, and trial. Attorneys, paralegals, and law students use it to track deadlines, prepare for hearings, and communicate case status to clients.

Can it handle federal civil procedure deadlines (FRCP)?02

Yes. Describe your case-specific scheduling order dates and the AI will place each FRCP milestone — such as the 21-day answer deadline, Rule 26(f) conference, and summary judgment briefing window — on the correct position in the timeline.

Can I customize the diagram after it is generated?03

Yes. Describe the example and request changes in the chat — the AI adjusts the diagram and explanation in seconds. You can add new deadlines, rename phases, recolor era bands, or switch from a lollipop to a Gantt-style view.

Can I export the diagram?04

Yes. Export as PNG from the editor toolbar, or copy the diagram to paste into presentations and reports. The exported image is suitable for court filings, client memos, and trial preparation binders.

Is it free to use?05
