“It drafts like someone who has read our files”

We used to lose the first two days of every matter to reading in. Justis pulls the chronology, flags the limitation issue, and hands back a draft that already sounds like our firm. Our associates start from an argument now, not a blank page.

“The citations hold up when the bench checks them”

That was the test for us. Every authority it gives is traceable to the reported judgment, and it tells us plainly when a point is unsettled. We have stopped re-verifying research from scratch, which is where the real hours went.

FAQ

Common questions

What is a legal notice?

A formal letter, usually sent through an advocate, that states a claim, cites the law it rests on, and gives the other side time to comply before proceedings are started. For some claims, such as cheque dishonour under Section 138 of the NI Act, a notice is a legal requirement before a complaint can be filed.

Can Justis draft a cheque bounce notice?

Yes. Attach the cheque and the return memo and it drafts the Section 138 notice with the cheque details, the amount and the time to pay, and shows when the notice must be sent.

Can it reply to a legal notice I received?

Yes. Attach the notice and your documents. It answers each allegation, admits or denies it with reasons, and drafts the reply.

Does it check the limitation period?

It counts the days from the dates in your documents and shows the working, so you can confirm the notice goes in time. Always check it against the file before sending.

Can I send the notice from Justis?

No. Justis drafts it as a Word document for you to review, sign and send. Nothing goes out on its own.

Are there free legal notice formats?

Yes. The template library has free Indian formats for notices, complaints and replies that you can fill in on the page and download in Word.
