Litigation is document-heavy from day one. Complaints, discovery, transcripts, and correspondence pile up before you even know what matters most — and the pressure to move fast never lets up. August Academy: Litigation teaches attorneys how to use AI to handle that volume, so they can focus on the strategy and arguments that actually win cases.

You'll learn how to use August's Assistant to upload case files and ask questions across your entire document set, generating case assessments, chronologies, and issue-spotting in minutes. You'll also learn how to build Playbooks that encode your firm's preferred positions and apply them automatically — so every deviation from your standards gets caught without manual review of every page.

The training also covers August's Word Add-In, which lets you tighten briefs and mark up opposing counsel's filings with tracked changes — without leaving the document you're already working in. From document production to final brief, this course teaches litigators how to move faster and deliver stronger work.
