Experimental

This tool helps legal professionals analyze U.S. Board of Veteran's Appeals decisions by breaking down long legal texts into individual sentences and classifying each sentence by its rhetorical role, such as 'Citation,' 'Evidence,' 'Legal Rule,' or 'Reasoning.' It takes a full legal decision as input and outputs the decision with each sentence categorized, which can then be used to summarize or search for similar cases more efficiently. Legal experts, researchers, and paralegals working with case law would find this most useful.

No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you need to quickly understand the structure and key components of legal decisions to identify relevant information or build case summaries.

Not ideal if you are looking to analyze legal documents outside of U.S. Board of Veteran's Appeals decisions or need a solution that directly provides case summaries or search results without further integration.
