Not another AI legal tool
Five things the generic tools don't do
Answers an attorney can stand behind.
Ask in plain English. Casewise retrieves the controlling New York authorities (statutes, ten years of decisions, DHCR guidance, court rules) and drafts a structured answer where every assertion carries a citation. Quoted language is string-matched to the source, word for word, and the check is shown with the answer.
Audit any filing in seconds, including theirs.
Paste a brief or upload a PDF or Word file. Every citation is verified: statutes and rules against the corpus, case law against a catalog of 5.1 million published citations. Real authority comes back with its case name and year. Fabricated authority comes back in red.
Analysis grounded in the actual building.
Mention a NYC address and the answer reflects that building's public record (rent-stabilization indicators, open HPD violations by class, the registered owner, eviction history), cited like any other source, linked to the underlying data.
Built for the work on your desk.
Holdover & nonpayment defense
Notice periods, rent demands, service windows, and the housing-part rules, with the controlling section quoted, not paraphrased.
Rent-stabilization questions
Guideline increases, IAI and MCI rules, Good Cause coverage, deregulation history, grounded in DHCR's own bulletins and fact sheets.
Habitability claims
The warranty's elements, the building's actual violation record, and a decade of Appellate Term outcomes on both sides of the ledger.
Designed for attorney confidentiality.
Your questions stay yours
Nothing you ask trains any model. We keep no central log of questions; research history lives in your own browser. No ad trackers, no cookie banners, nothing to opt out of.
Verification by construction
The drafting model can only cite sources retrieved for your question. Citations are mapped to real documents server-side; a fabricated cite cannot reach you. Quotes are matched character-for-character.
Primary sources, always
Every citation links to the official text: nysenate.gov, nycourts.gov, hcr.ny.gov. One click from answer to authority. Verify everything; the product is built to make that fast.
Try Casewise on a real question from your practice.
