Build a case from legal threats
Turn a string of escalating demand letters into a clean timeline your lawyer can work from.
The prompt
“This person is sending me legal threats. Pull every email between us from the last 18 months, download any attached documents, and build a timeline with citations and a one-page case summary.”
The scenario
A former contractor, vendor, or counterparty has escalated a dispute into legal territory. Their demand letter references a dozen emails and two attached contracts — many you barely remember.
You need a clean, chronological record of every interaction with them, every document exchanged, and the key moments where something was promised or refused. Your lawyer bills by the hour. You do not want to send them 600 random emails and an apology.
Sample output
An illustrative response. Real outputs cite actual senders, dates, message IDs, and attached files from your mailbox.
Timeline of interactions with {counterparty}
Jun 12 2024 — SOW signed. 30-day payment terms. Scope: phase 1 deliverables only.
Aug 04 2024 — First invoice sent (INV-0412, attached). You paid on Aug 19.
Sep 22 2024 — Scope change requested by email. No amendment signed. Counterparty began phase 2 work anyway.
Nov 11 2024 — Counterparty invoiced for phase 2 (INV-0487). You disputed in writing Nov 13 — "we did not agree to phase 2 scope."
Jan 30 2025 — Last productive reply from counterparty ("happy to discuss").
Mar 18 2025 — First demand letter. Cites a verbal agreement from Sep 19 that is not in any email in the record.
Apr 09 2025 — Demand letter #2. Amount increased by 40%.
Key points for counsel
- No signed amendment for the phase 2 work the counterparty is invoicing for (§4.2 of the SOW requires all scope changes to be in writing).
- Nov 13 dispute email establishes you objected within the payment-terms window.
- No email in the record supports the alleged Sep 19 verbal agreement.
- Full attachment bundle saved: SOW, both amendments-in-draft, 4 disputed invoices, your Nov 13 rejection.
