Attorney Terms of Service

As used in these Terms:

• "Plaintify," "we," "us," or "our" means Plaintify LLC, a limited liability company.
• "Platform" means the Plaintify web application, API, and all related services.
• "You" or "Subscriber" means the licensed attorney, law firm, or authorized personnel who creates an account and uses the Platform.
• "AI-Generated Content" means any output, draft, analysis, summary, research result, citation, damages estimate, or other content produced in whole or in part by the Platform's artificial intelligence features.
• "Matter" means a client legal matter or case managed within the Platform.
• "Confidential Client Information" means any information that is subject to attorney-client privilege or is otherwise confidential under applicable rules of professional conduct.
• "Subscription" means a paid or trial access plan to the Platform.

Plaintify is a legal productivity and document drafting platform for licensed plaintiff-side litigators. The Platform provides tools for matter management, legal research, document generation, damages analysis, evidence organization, deposition preparation, and settlement modeling.

Plaintify is not a law firm. The Platform does not provide legal advice, legal counsel, or legal representation of any kind. No attorney-client relationship is formed between Plaintify and any party as a result of using the Platform.

All AI-Generated Content, including documents, research results, citations, damages estimates, and analyses, is produced by automated systems and constitutes a starting point for attorney work — not a finished legal work product. You are solely responsible for reviewing, verifying, and taking professional responsibility for all content before it is used in any matter, submitted to any court, or communicated to any client or adverse party.

Your professional obligations remain fully in effect. Your use of Plaintify does not modify, diminish, or substitute for any of your obligations under applicable rules of professional conduct, court rules, or applicable law, including without limitation:

• Model Rule 1.1 (Competence): You must understand the capabilities and limitations of AI tools used in your practice and maintain competence in their use. You may not rely on AI-Generated Content as a substitute for competent legal analysis.
• Model Rule 1.4 (Communication): You are responsible for determining whether and how to disclose your use of AI tools to clients, consistent with your jurisdiction's requirements and your client's right to make informed decisions.
• Model Rule 1.5 (Fees): You may not charge clients for time spent learning to use Plaintify. AI-generated work product must be billed consistently with your jurisdiction's guidance on AI-assisted billing.
• Model Rule 1.6 (Confidentiality): You are responsible for evaluating whether inputting client information into the Platform is consistent with your confidentiality obligations. See Section 6 for Plaintify's data handling commitments.
• Model Rules 3.1 and 3.3 (Candor): You must independently verify all citations, legal arguments, and factual claims before submitting any filing to a court or tribunal. You may not submit AI-Generated Content to any court without independent verification.
• Model Rules 5.1 and 5.3 (Supervision): If non-lawyer staff or associates use the Platform on your behalf, you are responsible for supervising their use and ensuring compliance with these Terms and applicable professional conduct rules.
• Court-specific AI disclosure rules: You are responsible for complying with any standing orders, local rules, or court requirements mandating disclosure of AI use in filings in any jurisdiction where you practice.

By using the Platform, you represent that you have reviewed the guidance of your state bar and any courts where you practice regarding the use of AI tools, and that your use of Plaintify is consistent with that guidance.

All AI-Generated Content requires attorney review before use. Plaintify's AI systems are designed to assist — not replace — attorney judgment. Despite our efforts to ground AI output in real legal authorities, AI systems can produce inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading content, including:

• Citations to cases or statutes that do not exist, have been reversed, or have been interpreted differently than stated
• Legal analysis that is incorrect, incomplete, or inapplicable to your jurisdiction
• Damages estimates or financial calculations that are imprecise or based on incorrect assumptions
• Documents that contain errors, omissions, or provisions that are inappropriate for your specific matter

You acknowledge that:

• You will independently verify all citations and legal authority before reliance or use in any filing or communication
• You will exercise independent professional judgment before using any AI-Generated Content in any matter
• You are solely responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and appropriateness of any work product derived from AI-Generated Content
• Plaintify makes no representation that AI-Generated Content is accurate, current, or suitable for any particular matter

PLAINTIFY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO AI-GENERATED CONTENT, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

You may use the Platform solely for lawful legal practice activities on behalf of clients you represent. You may not:

• Use the Platform to engage in the unauthorized practice of law or to provide legal services to others without a valid attorney license
• Input into the Platform information relating to matters in which you have a conflict of interest that has not been properly addressed under applicable professional conduct rules
• Use AI-Generated Content in court filings without independent verification and, where required, disclosure
• Represent to clients, courts, or adverse parties that AI-Generated Content was independently authored by you without AI assistance, where such representation would be false or misleading
• Attempt to circumvent any security, access control, or data isolation feature of the Platform
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or derive source code from any part of the Platform
• Resell, sublicense, or provide access to the Platform to any third party not covered by your Subscription
• Use the Platform to generate content intended to harass, defame, or harm any individual
• Use the Platform in any manner that violates applicable law or professional conduct rules

The Platform is intended for use by plaintiff-side litigators. Plaintify reserves the right to suspend accounts found to be using the Platform for defense-side representation in matters where Plaintify is also used by plaintiff counsel, in order to preserve firm-level data isolation.

We understand that attorney-client confidentiality is fundamental to your professional obligations. Plaintify's data architecture is designed with this in mind:

• All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256)
• Each firm's data is logically isolated using row-level security — no firm's data is accessible to another firm's users
• We do not sell, license, or disclose your Matter data or Confidential Client Information to third parties, except as required by law or as necessary to provide the Service
• We maintain comprehensive audit logs of all data access and modifications within your firm environment
• Our infrastructure is hosted on providers that maintain SOC 2 Type II compliance and ISO 27001 certification

You are responsible for evaluating whether inputting Confidential Client Information into the Platform is permissible under your jurisdiction's rules of professional conduct and your engagement agreements with clients. ABA Formal Opinion 512 provides guidance on attorney obligations when using AI tools that process client information. Plaintify recommends obtaining client consent in your engagement letter for use of AI-assisted legal productivity tools where required by your jurisdiction.

In the event of a security incident affecting your data, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law and our data processing obligations.

Your data is not used to train AI models. Specifically:

• Plaintify does not use your Matter data, case files, client information, or any content you input into the Platform to train, fine-tune, or improve any AI model
• Plaintify contractually requires its AI infrastructure providers to prohibit the use of your data for model training purposes
• Prompts, queries, and AI-Generated Content produced within your firm environment are processed but not retained for the purpose of model improvement

We maintain data processing agreements with our AI providers that include these protections. If you require documentation of these protections for your firm's AI policy or client disclosures, please contact us at legal@plaintify.ai.

The Platform includes a conflict screening feature that searches for potential name matches across matters in your firm's account. This feature is a screening tool only — it is not a substitute for the complete conflict analysis required under Model Rules 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, and 1.10.

You acknowledge that:

• Conflict screening results are limited to the data you have entered into the Platform and may not reflect all parties, related entities, or adverse interests relevant to a conflicts analysis
• Automated screening cannot account for positional conflicts, business conflicts, or conflicts arising from relationships not captured in the Platform
• You remain solely responsible for conducting a thorough conflicts analysis before undertaking any representation
• Plaintify makes no representation that use of the conflict screening feature satisfies your professional obligations under any applicable rule of professional conduct

Plaintify's infrastructure is designed to support attorney-client privilege and work product protections. Work product you generate within the Platform is your work product, and our systems are designed to keep it within your firm's secure environment.

However, Plaintify cannot guarantee that any particular communication or content will be protected by attorney-client privilege or the work product doctrine in any jurisdiction. Privilege determinations are legal conclusions that depend on facts, applicable law, and court rulings that Plaintify cannot assess. You should consult your bar's ethics guidance and applicable case law regarding privilege considerations when using AI tools in your practice. See our Bar Compliance page for relevant resources.

Plaintify offers a 30-day free trial for new subscribers. No credit card is required to begin the trial. Following the trial period, continued access requires a paid Subscription at the then-current pricing listed at plaintify.ai/attorneys.

• Subscriptions are billed monthly or annually in advance
• All fees are non-refundable except as expressly stated in these Terms or as required by applicable law
• Plaintify reserves the right to modify Subscription pricing with 30 days' advance written notice
• Failure to pay may result in suspension or termination of your account
• Fees do not include applicable taxes, which you are responsible for paying

Your content is yours. You retain all intellectual property rights in the data, documents, and content you upload to or create within the Platform, including work product derived from AI-Generated Content.

Plaintify retains all rights in the Platform, including the underlying AI models, software, interfaces, and proprietary research databases. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Platform during your Subscription term, solely for the purposes described in these Terms.

AI-Generated Content produced by the Platform using your inputs and your firm's data is owned by you, subject to any rights retained by underlying AI infrastructure providers as disclosed in our privacy documentation.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:

(a) Disclaimer of Warranties. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. PLAINTIFY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY AI-GENERATED CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PURPOSE.

(b) Limitation of Damages. IN NO EVENT WILL PLAINTIFY, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, PROFESSIONAL SANCTIONS, MALPRACTICE CLAIMS, OR ANY OTHER LOSS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM OR ANY AI-GENERATED CONTENT, EVEN IF PLAINTIFY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

(c) Cap on Liability. PLAINTIFY'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL SUBSCRIPTION FEES PAID BY YOU TO PLAINTIFY IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability; in such jurisdictions, the above limitations apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Plaintify and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection with: (a) your use of the Platform; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any applicable law, rule of professional conduct, or court rule; (d) any content you input into the Platform; or (e) any work product you produce using AI-Generated Content, including any malpractice claim, court sanction, or bar complaint arising from reliance on unverified AI output.

These Terms are effective from the date you first access the Platform and continue until your Subscription is terminated. You may cancel your Subscription at any time through your account settings. Plaintify may suspend or terminate your access immediately upon written notice if: (a) you materially breach these Terms; (b) your use creates legal risk or reputational harm to Plaintify; (c) required by law or court order; or (d) you fail to pay applicable fees.

Upon termination, you may export your data within 30 days using the Platform's export functionality. After 30 days, Plaintify may delete your data in accordance with its data retention policy. Sections 4, 9, 12, 13, 15, and 16 survive termination.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Platform that cannot be resolved informally will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules, with proceedings conducted in the State of Delaware. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm. You and Plaintify each waive any right to a jury trial and agree not to participate in any class action or consolidated arbitration proceeding.

Plaintify may update these Terms from time to time. We will provide at least 30 days' notice of material changes via email to your registered address or via in-platform notification. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to a material change, you may terminate your Subscription prior to the effective date.
