Texas Local Rules Engine
Stop hunting through PDFs and court websites. Query 175 Texas counties' local rules, standing orders, and judge preferences — with cited sources and working hyperlinks to the original documents.
The problem
Texas attorneys must navigate a layered hierarchy of rules — state, county, court-specific, judge-specific — that varies wildly across 254 counties. There is no single source that consolidates them.
Miss a local rule and you face blown deadlines, rejected filings, or judicial sanctions. The current options are either expensive print volumes that go stale, or manually searching individual court websites one at a time.
How it works
Double-click the .skill file we send you. It installs in Claude Desktop in seconds. One-time setup — add our domain to your allowed list and you're done.
In plain English: "What are the e-filing requirements in Travis County?" or "What does the 53rd District Court require for pre-trial scheduling?" The engine searches every rule layer — state, county, and court-specific — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Receive a synthesized answer with hyperlinked citations to the court's actual orders and rules. Every factual statement traces to a specific provision. Request a formal memo and get a professional document ready for your file.
What's inside
We've collected, structured, and indexed local rules, standing orders, and court-specific requirements from across the Texas judicial system — from state-level procedural rules down to individual judge preferences.
What you get
Every answer traces back to a specific provision in a specific document. Here's what a typical result looks like.
