Getting Started with LawCipher

Create your account

Sign up at /signup with email and password, or use Google / Microsoft OAuth. New accounts start a 14-day free trial that grants Professional-tier page allowance with watermarked exports as the only limitation. No credit card is required.

Set up your organization

After confirming your email, set your organization name and slug. The slug becomes part of your vanity URL and is used for tenant routing. Tenant admins can update branding later from Admin Settings.

Create your first case

1. Open Cases in the dashboard sidebar and click New Case.
2. Give the case a name and an internal docket number.
3. Set the status to Active, Closed, or Archived.
4. (Optional) Add case parties, deadlines, and custom labels.

Upload documents

Drag files onto the Upload page or a case's document list. Supported types include PDF, DOCX, TXT, images, spreadsheets, email (EML/MSG), and video (MP4/AVI/MOV/MKV). Files are stored in R2 and processed automatically.

Invite your team

Tenant admins invite users from Admin → Team. Seat limits are Solo: 1, Pro: 5, Business: 20, Enterprise: custom. Assign roles of admin, editor, or viewer.
