Lulius

Lulius is an AI-powered legal research and analysis platform for German federal law, built for law firms and consumers who need a fast initial assessment, legal references, or a draft legal opinion. It combines AI-powered analysis with an indexed source base covering more than 4,600 federal laws and over 80,000 decisions from German federal courts.

The platform is designed to provide general legal information rather than individualized legal advice. Answers include references to specific statutory provisions, court decisions, and uploaded documents, making it useful when legal research needs to be supported by sources that can be checked and verified.

Key Features

AI Legal Research

Research German federal law using an AI assistant backed by a large indexed legal source base.

• More than 4,600 federal laws
• Over 80,000 decisions from German federal courts
• References to specific statutory provisions
• References to relevant court rulings
• Fast initial legal assessments
• Source-backed answers for further verification

This makes Lulius useful not only for getting an initial answer, but also for finding the underlying legal sources supporting that answer.

Law Firm Suite

The Law Firm Suite provides tools for legal professionals working on research, case preparation, and legal drafting.

• AI research assistant
• Case-file analysis
• Legal opinion drafts
• Deadline checks
• Litigation-cost checks
• Matter management
• Full-text search
• DOCX and PDF exports

Drafts can follow the traditional legal-opinion structure, including the issue statement, definition, application of law to the facts, and conclusion.

Document Upload & Case-File Analysis

Upload legal documents directly into the chat for analysis.

Lulius can work with:

• PDFs
• Scanned documents
• Entire case files
• Other uploaded legal material

This allows users to combine external legal sources with the facts and documents contained in their own files.

Law Firm Knowledge Base

Law firms can add their own legal materials to create a searchable knowledge base.

Teams can incorporate:

• Templates
• Precedents
• Previous legal submissions
• Internal legal knowledge

This makes the platform useful for research that needs to consider not only external law, but also a firm's existing materials and working practices.

Consumer Legal Check

The Consumer Check is designed to make everyday legal questions easier to understand.

Instead of presenting legal research in a technical format, it provides:

• Plain-language explanations
• A risk traffic-light system
• Recommended actions
• Initial assessments of common legal matters

Examples include questions around termination notices, rent increases, and purchase law. More complex matters can be referred to specialist attorneys.

Traceable Legal Sources

A central part of the platform is the ability to trace answers back to their underlying sources.

Responses can reference:

• Specific statutory provisions
• Official court decisions
• Information contained in uploaded documents

This source-based approach helps users distinguish an AI-generated assessment from the legal material supporting it and makes it easier to verify important statements.

Team Collaboration

Law firms can work with legal information and matters in a shared environment.

Team features include:

• Shared knowledge base
• Shared matters
• Full-text search
• Document and case-file analysis
• DOCX exports
• PDF exports

This supports collaborative research and preparation rather than limiting the platform to individual AI conversations.

Privacy & GDPR

Lulius includes privacy-focused infrastructure for handling legal documents and sensitive information.

• EU hosting
• GDPR compliance
• Anonymization of sensitive information before document uploads

These features are particularly relevant when working with case files and other documents containing confidential or personally sensitive information.

Built For Law Firms & Consumers

Lulius serves two distinct audiences with workflows tailored to their needs.

• Law firms conducting legal research and case preparation
• Lawyers drafting legal opinions and analyzing case files
• Legal teams managing shared knowledge and matters
• Consumers seeking an understandable initial assessment
• Individuals researching everyday German legal issues

Common Use Cases

Legal research: Search German federal law and court decisions while receiving references to the underlying statutory provisions and rulings.

Case preparation: Analyze uploaded case files and combine document-specific information with broader legal research.

Legal opinion drafting: Generate drafts structured around the traditional legal-opinion format of issue statement, definition, application, and conclusion.

Deadline and cost checks: Support law-firm workflows with checks related to deadlines and litigation costs.

Internal knowledge research: Search a firm's own templates, precedents, and previous legal submissions alongside external legal sources.

Everyday legal questions: Help consumers understand issues such as termination notices, rent increases, and purchase law in plain language.

Source verification: Follow references to statutory provisions, court decisions, and uploaded documents to check the basis for an answer.

Why It Matters

Legal AI is most useful when an answer can be traced back to the underlying legal material. A quick assessment becomes considerably more practical when users can also see the relevant statutory provisions, court decisions, or documents supporting it.

Lulius combines AI analysis with a substantial indexed source base and the ability to work directly with uploaded case files and a law firm's own knowledge. For consumers, it provides a simpler way to understand everyday legal questions, while law firms get tools for research, case preparation, drafting, and team workflows.

Consumers can use the platform for understandable initial assessments, while law firms can combine AI analysis with statutory provisions, court decisions, and their own legal documents.

Lulius provides general legal information and source-backed analysis, not individualized legal advice, making it a research and assessment tool rather than a replacement for professional legal representation.
