"Trellis is an extremely useful state trial court tool for law students, faculty, and practicing attorneys."
"I believe that your product is extremely useful and beneficial to solos like myself who have just 1-2 staff members. Thank you for creating this platform and I look forward to continuing doing business with you in the future."
"In my opinion, Trellis is the only system I've used that actually works the way a system should for state cases."
"I have a moment with Trellis almost every day finding results I wouldn't have been able to find anywhere else," says Rubin. "The information in Trellis changed my cases from being on defense to offense. Trellis is an essential tool for litigators."
"Our library started a trial of Trellis. Because of the content, we thought our clinic professors might be interested. In addition to state trial court data and records, Trellis offers search features such as Judge Analytics, Verdicts, and Motions & Issues. Trellis is also adding state statutes, administrative codes, constitutions, and court rules. If a student in a legal clinic needed to look up a sample complaint or motion, a Trellis search can locate a similar case with a searchable docket containing pleadings that have been filed. Similarly, the same student looking to apply for a clerkship with a specific judge can utilize Judge Analytics to see what types of cases the judge typically has on their dockets, how often a case goes to trial, and what kinds of motions the judge's ruling on."
"Trellis has been a game-changer for our civil trial practice. Before Trellis, searching trial dockets was difficult and cumbersome. With Trellis, however, we can instantly search every filing, in every Florida trial docket, to find exactly what we need all in one place."
"We bid farewell to Big Law in 2020 and started our own law firm. One thing we strongly missed was the convenience of quickly accessing a template from the firm's extensive database of previously drafted documents. Trellis Law has revolutionized this process for us. Their platform enables us to search every state court filing in Florida and even refine our search by law firm or attorney, ensuring that we find prior filings pertinent to the issue at hand. Additionally, it offers a seamless way to view how the Court ruled by easily allowing you to pull up the Order on the Motion under review. This remarkable platform has truly been a game changer for us, saving countless hours and streamlining our work. We cannot praise the Trellis platform enough for its exceptional capabilities!"
"The Judge Analytics function has been very useful in connection with bringing critical motions and conducting trials in getting a feel for the Court's inclinations with respect to specialized issues. As a California based attorney, I've also found the research tools, including Document Search, helpful for matters I am handling in other jurisdictions pro hac vice."
"Here's my prediction: Trellis Law is going to transform the way lawyers practice in the state courts. Imagine having a searchable database of every state court document. Imagine having access to a judicial dashboard that helps you understand how a judge has ruled on particular motions. Imagine being able to search every motion before a judge and learn the arguments that influenced the judge's decision. You don't have to imagine. It exists. (Nicole Clark) has created it in Trellis Law."
"I do think the access to state filings to use as samples on Trellis is really useful for small firms, like ours, who often lack the depth of “brief banks” and similar that larger firms accumulate over the years. At the federal level, there’s PACER (or RECAP, etc.) which is brilliant for this, but at the California state level, such access is extremely challenging due to lack of search, pay-to-access docs in many state courts. Trellis helps make up for this and is highly useful."
"The Trellis state court judicial bios are fabulous. Depending on the state, bios for such folks can be hard to find, so I’m very grateful for what Trellis produces."
