How DONNA Powers Family Law Preparedness

DONNA is Intakit's governed intelligence layer — it notices what changed across your firm's family law matters, keeps context coherent across email, calls, SMS, and documents, and prepares the next useful work before attorneys ask. For family law practices, this means less time chasing documents and reconstructing status, and more time on substantive legal work.

This is what matter preparedness looks like in practice: every active matter has a continuously updated picture of what's ready, what's missing, and what should happen next. Attorneys start the day with that picture already assembled — no reconstruction required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is financial disclosure the biggest bottleneck in divorce cases?
Financial disclosure stalls divorce cases because it requires complete data from both parties — income, assets, debts, expenses — and most clients submit incomplete or inconsistent information that paralegals spend days chasing down and reformatting. Intakit guides both parties through structured financial data collection via a secure client portal. It compiles everything into court-compliant disclosure forms automatically — reducing data entry errors through form validation and cutting preparation time from days to hours.
How do family law firms accurately calculate parenting time percentages?
Parenting time calculations are surprisingly complex — holiday rotations, alternating weekends, summer schedules, and transition logistics all affect the overnight count that drives child support formulas. Manual counting is error-prone and frequently contested. Intakit's custody module includes a visual calendar for parenting time, holiday rotation tracking, and automatic overnight calculations. It generates the percentage of parenting time for each parent, which feeds directly into child support calculations.
What security risks should family law firms consider when using cloud-based case management?
Family law cases contain some of the most sensitive client data in legal practice — financial records, custody disputes, domestic violence allegations, and privileged communications that could cause real harm if exposed. Any cloud platform handling this data needs to earn that trust. Intakit encrypts all data with AES-256 at rest and in transit. Each law firm operates in a fully isolated tenant environment, and all access is logged with a complete audit trail. We meet or exceed the security requirements for handling privileged attorney-client communications.
Where do family law firms lose the most time on non-billable work?
Family law practices hemorrhage time on three things: chasing clients for financial documents, manually preparing disclosure forms, and fielding anxious client calls for status updates. These are necessary tasks, but they don't require attorney judgment. Intakit handles routine follow-ups, generates disclosure documents, and tracks court deadlines automatically — so attorneys can focus on advocacy and client relationships instead of administrative overhead.
