Matter Pipeline: A New Template for Legal Teams

Legal teams get their own template in Decuga — matter phases, AI-drafted briefs and reviews, and client intake in one place. Here is how to run matters without the document maze.

Why legal teams need their own workspace

A matter lives in an email thread. The brief is a Word doc with six versions. The filing deadline is in someone's calendar. That is where legal teams lose time: switching between email, documents folders, and case files nobody updates.

Matter phases: the sprint for legal

Decuga gives legal projects a Matter Phase board instead of a generic sprint board. Each phase groups the tasks around a matter — intake, research, drafting, review, filing — and tracks them as a unit, so filing deadlines stop sneaking up on you.

AI-drafted briefs and reviews

Legal Brief, Contract Review, Case Summary, Compliance Memo, and Legal Policy documents are drafted by AI from your notes in under a minute. The document is saved to the project automatically, ready for review or edits.

Client intake without the email maze

Give every client a structured intake form for new matters and requests. Requests are logged, assigned, and tracked with a clear status — no more digging through inboxes to find out who actioned the intake.
