Why this matters

Family law orders often contain ongoing financial obligations alongside one-time deadlines. A missed disclosure deadline can block the next step in the proceeding.

Lawyer review required

Recurring obligations like monthly support are extracted with their start date. Set up recurring calendar entries manually after confirming the first payment date.

  • Review source text before confirming each extraction
  • Verify computed dates against the actual document
  • Confirm or dismiss each item before exporting to calendar
