Coordinated Interrogatories, RFPs and RFAs Built From Your Record
Drafts interrogatories, requests for production and requests for admission as one coordinated set from the topics, record facts and rule text you paste. Numerical limits come only from the rule text, and no request asserts a fact your record does not support.
The Prompt
Variables (7)
| Variable | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| {{case_caption}} | Case Caption and Court | Ruiz v. Pacific Rim Foods, No. 24-CV-5532, Superior Court |
| {{parties}} | Our Client and the Receiving Party | We represent Plaintiff Elena Ruiz; requests go to Defendant Pacific Rim Foods, Inc. |
| {{theory}} | Claims and Theory of the Case | Complaint alleges wrongful termination after a medical leave. Our theory: the stated performance reason was not the real reason. |
| {{record}} | Record Facts and Documents | Termination letter, Apr. 12, 2024: "Your position is eliminated." Leave approval, Mar. 1, 2024. Handbook sec. 9 on performance reviews. |
| {{topics}} | Topics and Instructions | Cover comp plans, performance reviews and internal complaints. Period: Jan. 1, 2022 to Apr. 12, 2024. At most 12 interrogatories. |
| {{rule_text}} | Governing Rule Text | Paste verbatim the rules on number limits, form, and response periods that apply in this court. |
| {{served}} | Requests Already Served | First set of interrogatories, nos. 1 to 8, served Dec. 3, 2025. |
Expected Output
Part 1 attorney-only notes (record register, conflicts, count check against pasted limits, cleared and held-back lists, topic-to-device map, defined-term check, unsupported statements declined, declined requests, missing information). Part 2: definitions, response period, interrogatories, requests for production and requests for admission, numbered. Then a verification list.
Usage Notes
Use it when you are preparing the first or a follow-up set of written discovery. Paste the claims and theory as you understand them, the record facts and documents you hold, the topics to cover, and the verbatim rule text on limits and form. Failure mode to watch: a number of requests above a limit nobody pasted, a request that assumes a fact the record does not state, or a defined term used but never defined. Count the set against the rule yourself. Read the document part line by line before it leaves the office. Not legal advice. The attorney remains responsible for verifying every fact, figure and authority before use.
Double-check before use
- If your notes mention a document you hold in confidence, read every request for words that point to it. In testing, requests once asked about "recalculations" that only a private note described.
- Check that no request states why a party acted, and that no request sets a date range you did not supply.
- Count the requests for admission. In testing, fewer than requested were drafted, or filler requests were added.
