Real Property Litigation Software
Built for California Superior Court, Legion synthesizes grant deeds, title chains, recorded easements, escrow files, and years of correspondence into petitions, discovery, and motions grounded in the property record
Built for Real Property Litigation Matters
The Record Lives in the Property Itself
Real property disputes don't just involve contracts and emails – they involve title chains that stretch back decades, recorded instruments scattered across county records, escrow files, appraisals, CC&Rs, and survey maps, on top of the usual years of correspondence. Synthesizing all of it is the job before the job.
Complaints
Drafting a real property complaint means synthesizing title documents, grant deeds, recorded encumbrances, purchase agreements, escrow files, and years of correspondence into a coherent factual narrative – before you write a single cause of action.
Discovery
Targeted discovery in property cases requires knowing what the title record shows, which recorded instruments are in dispute, and what the escrow and broker communications reveal – before you can ask the right questions.
Motions
Summary judgment briefs, partition trials, and injunctive relief applications require synthesizing property records, contractual terms, and recorded instruments into a tight legal argument – on a timeline that often doesn't leave room for manual review.
How Legion Helps
A Complaint Grounded in the Property Record
The title chain, the recorded instruments, the escrow file – your complaint needs to own all of it before it gets to a cause of action.
Legion synthesizes your case documents into a structured factual narrative. Upload:
- Grant deeds and recorded instruments
- Purchase agreements and addenda
- Escrow files and closing statements
- Title reports, surveys, and plat maps
- Appraisal and expert reports
- HOA CC&Rs, bylaws, and correspondence
Legion drafts complaints with a clear chronology of the dispute, claims tied to specific property records and contract provisions, and consistent references to parcels, recorded instruments, and key dates.
You control the legal theories. Legion commands the record.
Discovery That Targets What the Record Actually Shows
Generic discovery in property cases gets generic objections. The title record tells you exactly what to ask for.
Legion drafts discovery tied to what your documents actually reveal:
- Special Interrogatories focused on chain of title, recorded encumbrances, disclosure history, and property condition
- Requests for Production tied to specific deeds, escrow communications, broker files, and appraisal records
- Requests for Admission to establish ownership, notice, easement scope, and contract terms
Your strategy. Legion's drafting horsepower.
Respond Consistently Across a Complex Property Record
Your discovery responses follow you – through depositions, at trial, and in front of the court.
Real property discovery responses often touch years of title history, maintenance records, transaction files, and HOA communications. Imprecise language gets exploited. Legion drafts responses that:
- Preserve objections
- Stay consistent with the complaint and the recorded property record
- Hold up across a factual record that spans multiple transactions and years
Protect your objections. Hit your deadlines. Keep the narrative coherent.
Move Fast When the Property Is at Risk
Lis pendens, TROs, and ex parte applications don't wait for a leisurely drafting schedule.
When a sale is about to close, assets are being transferred, or a co-owner is forcing a partition you need to stop, the ability to file fast changes everything. Legion drafts:
- Ex parte applications for TROs and preliminary injunctions
- Notices of lis pendens and supporting declarations
- Motions to compel and meet and confer correspondence
- Notices of motion and memoranda of points and authorities
- Separate statements (discovery motions)
- Proposed orders
You click send. They scramble.
Why Real Property Litigators Use Legion
Master a Record That Spans the Property's History
Title chains, recorded easements, decades of HOA minutes, and multiple rounds of escrow – real property disputes often involve more recorded history than any associate can manually synthesize. Legion does the synthesis so you can focus on the argument.
Partition and Co-Ownership Disputes
Partition actions are document-intensive by nature: years of co-ownership, shared expenses, unequal contributions, and competing claims to equity. Legion turns the financial records and communications into a coherent factual narrative for the partition trial.
Move Fast on Injunctive Relief
When a property is about to change hands or a co-owner is acting unilaterally, speed is everything. Legion drafts lis pendens support, TRO applications, and ex parte papers grounded in the specific facts of your case – not a generic template.
