## The Problem

Criminal Defense clients text/call/email asking where their case stands — and the partner either ghost them or drops billable work to answer.

## What We Build in PracticePanther

AI drafts personalized case-status updates from live matter state in MyCase on a weekly cadence, and generates on-demand replies when the client asks — client satisfaction climbs, billable hours come back. Purpose-built for teams running PracticePanther — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## PracticePanther Integration Approach

1. **Audit your PracticePanther configuration.** We map the specific PracticePanther objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your criminal defense practice.
2. **Build on the PracticePanther API or agent.** Integration happens inside PracticePanther — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in PracticePanther with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
