Capture
Bring dated source material into the matter while preserving document identity.
Chronology
Build a legal chronology that remains connected to the evidence.
Build source-linked legal chronologies from matter evidence, keeping events connected to documents, issues and professional review rather than a generic timeline.
A chronology is more than a list of dates
In contentious work, a useful chronology needs to answer more than when something happened. It should help a lawyer understand what happened, which document supports the event, which issue it affects, and whether the event is disputed, incomplete or dependent on interpretation.
LegalRAG Pro treats chronology as a governed matter view. Events can be used alongside legal issues, source material and professional review rather than being flattened into an isolated spreadsheet or chat response.
Chronology workflow
Reconstruct
Identify events and sequence them using the underlying evidence.
Connect
Relate events to issues, people and evidential propositions.
Inspect
Return from a chronology event to the relevant source material when checking accuracy.
Useful in evidence-heavy disputes
A source-linked chronology can be especially useful where correspondence, medical material, employment records, contractual documents, disclosure and witness accounts overlap across a long period. The purpose is not to automate judgment, but to reduce the friction involved in building and checking the factual sequence.

Test chronology on a real matter
A pilot can focus narrowly on document ingestion, event reconstruction and source checking before expanding into wider analysis.
