FAMILY LAW

Years of messages, one navigable record

Family proceedings are evidenced by the most awkward material there is: years of messages between two people, exported from several platforms, mixed with financial documents and school reports.

Questions this practice actually asks

“How do I organise years of messages for a family case?”
Message exports, e-mail, documents and screenshots of chats land in one file with dates and senders. A screenshot of a WhatsApp thread is read as a conversation, not as a wall of OCR, and the timeline narrows to any period.
“What did they say about the children's schooling, and when?”
The profile of each parent lists every statement about schooling with its date and its source, and the timeline filtered to that topic shows the sequence.
“Can I get a chronology of contact arrangements?”
The chronology export lists every dated contact arrangement with its source, and the correspondence statistics show every silence of thirty days or more between the two parents.

Volume without structure

Message exports arrive as walls of text with no dates you can filter and no way to separate the relevant month from the rest.

Sensitive material, many hands

The file contains material about children. Who can open what has to be controlled, not assumed.

The same claim, told twice

Positions shift between correspondence and statements, and showing the shift means finding both versions.

What Legalnaut does about it

  • Message exports, e-mail, documents and chat screenshots land in one file with dates, senders and a timeline you can narrow to a period.
  • Roles control access: a viewer can read without being able to change or delete anything, and sensitive material stays out of the view of those without the right to it.
  • A pseudonym registry per matter turns names into roles in every export, so a bundle can go to an expert, a mediator or a guardian without the identities.
  • Correspondence is measured: who wrote to whom, how long a reply took, and every silence, which in a case about contact is evidence in itself.
Correspondence between the parties by month, with the silences marked.
