# Legal Now — Full Documentation for LLMs > Modern legal services designed for early stage companies in Canada Website: https://legal-now.com App: https://legal-now-dev.vercel.app/client/home Short summary: https://legal-now.com/llms.txt --- ## Product Overview Legal Now is a legal services platform that combines AI-enabled efficiency with lawyer-reviewed quality. We are neither a traditional law firm nor a self-serve document website. Unlike document platforms such as LawDepot or Clerky, Legal Now does not provide unreviewed, one-size-fits-all templates. All legal work is delivered by qualified lawyers exercising professional judgment. We connect clients to Canadian lawyers and support drafting of legal documents in Canada. We can refer clients to US lawyers as well, but currently do not provide US legal services through the platform. Legal Now is a licensed trademark of Discover Media House Inc. --- ## Mission We believe startup founders are best served by lawyers who understand what it means to build a business—small and solo firm lawyers who run their own firms and work with entrepreneurs every day. Legal Now pairs highly skilled, technology-forward lawyers in small firms with early-stage operators, using AI to reduce friction, improve efficiency, and support actionable, risk-balanced legal advice. We're not a law firm—and we're not just software. We're a new kind of legal service, built for how early stage companies actually work today. Fast. Transparent. Human where it counts. --- ## How It Works ### Step 1: Ask a question or start a request Describe what you need in plain language. No legal jargon required. ### Step 2: AI drafts and summarizes Our AI quickly generates documents, summaries, and recommendations. ### Step 3: Lawyer reviews and approves A qualified lawyer validates the work, catches issues, and ensures quality. --- ## Key Features ### Efficient AI with a lawyer in the loop AI handles the heavy lifting while qualified lawyers review and approve every piece of work. Clients never rely on AI alone for decisions that affect their legal rights. ### Visibility into work as it's happening Track your request status in real-time.
