Patent Prior Art Search for Litigation Paralegals with NetDocuments

NetDocuments Litigation Paralegal Civil Litigation

The Problem

Prior art searches for Civil Litigation matters take days in Relativity, and the attorney still has to read every hit to judge relevance.

What We Build in NetDocuments

AI runs the search across USPTO, EPO, and Relativity, ranks hits by claim-overlap relevance, summarizes each, and builds the search report — attorney starts from a triaged list, not a raw dump. Purpose-built for teams running NetDocuments — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
