Document Creator

Draft Belgian court documents by filling in the blanks. The Document Creator is a structured block editor: you write the content, Praxis handles the formatting. Fonts, margins, randnummer numbering, heading numbering (I., I.1.) and the exhibit inventory all follow the court formatting standard automatically and cannot be broken.

How It Works

  1. Pick a template – klacht met burgerlijke partijstelling, conclusie (first instance or appeal), beroepsakte, verzoekschrift kort geding or dagvaarding – or start from a blank document
  2. Link a case – party blocks pre-fill from the case contacts and the inventaris der stukken pre-fills from the case documents
  3. Fill in the blanks – structured fields for parties, addresses and signatures; free-text paragraphs for the substance. Numbering updates live as you reorder
  4. Export – PDF (court-ready), Word (.docx) or ODT with one click

Live PDF Preview

Toggle Preview to see the final, formatted PDF side-by-side while you type. The preview recompiles automatically after every auto-save, so what you see is exactly what will be filed.

Real-Time Collaboration

Several people can work on the same draft at once. Everyone sees who is editing which paragraph (colored name tags), changes appear within a second, and saves never conflict. Colleagues in your firm just open the same document; external collaborators join through a share link.

Share Links

Share a draft the way you would share a OneDrive file — the recipient needs no Praxis account:

Links can be labeled, given an expiry (7/30/90 days or never) and revoked instantly. Every access is counted and audited.

Praxis Bot (AI plans)

On AI-enabled plans, the AI text button lets Praxis Bot write a paragraph for you. Click into an empty paragraph and ask — the bot knows the document structure, the section you are in, and the linked case (description, court, parties). It writes in formal legal register, never invents facts, and marks unknown data with placeholders like [DATUM]. You review and edit the text before it is inserted.

Checks Before Filing

The Check button verifies the document against its template: missing required sections, empty randnummers, exhibit references that point outside the inventory. Warnings never block you — they are a pre-filing checklist.

Exports

Export is one-way by design: the draft in Praxis stays the single source of truth, so the formatting can never be broken by a word processor.
