Bailiff

What Bailiff is

Bailiff helps legal professionals manage court deadlines from court documents. Upload a document and it calculates proposed deadlines and events; review the suggestions before syncing approved items to a calendar. Each deadline includes the event that triggers it, the relevant source language, and the calculation path, while the original document remains connected to the deadline and its review status. When a new filing is uploaded, Bailiff checks it against existing events so a proposed change can be reviewed before calendars are updated.

The web service supports court orders and scheduling documents from Florida and Texas state courts, as well as all Federal courts. It connects to Google Calendar and Outlook through API, with one-way syncing, customizable reminders, and timezone support. The Bailiff Plan costs $35 a month per seat and includes unlimited PDF processing, team collaboration, priority email support, and a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. Bailiff states that it encrypts connections with 256-bit SSL and processes documents in isolation without sharing them. Customers can cancel anytime without fees; the site also offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for legal professionals.
