I'm a PI attorney (Florida) who has built a complete, working prototype of the case-management system my firm needs. It runs today: intake, matters, settlements, documents, deadlines, permissions, audit trail. It is the specification — the hire rebuilds it as a production application. Schema, screens, and business rules are already documented, so this is execution against a precise spec, not product discovery.
▎
▎ The platform is AI-native by design: the AI assistant ships in Phase 2, but the architecture must support it from day one — structured, queryable data, stable IDs, clean read APIs. No re-architecture later.
▎
▎ Stack
▎ - TypeScript, Next.js/React — you port the existing screens, so front-end capability matters even for a backend-weighted role
▎ - PostgreSQL + Supabase, with Row-Level Security as the enforcement layer: "standard users can't delete" must be true at the database, not just in the UI
▎ - Auth & permissions: roles, per-user grants, MFA, and a complete audit trail
▎ - Phase 1 is single-tenant but multi-tenant-ready (tenant_id on every table)
▎
▎ Data migration
▎ - Build a Salesforce import and field-mapping tool
▎ - Bulk ingestion at scale: roughly 0.5 TB of existing files. Performance here is a requirement, not a nice-to-have
▎ - Recommend and defend the storage architecture (my instinct is Supabase as the base layer with AWS ainst three goals: mostprotected, fastest, best growth path
▎
▎ Integrations
▎ - DocuSign — full e-signdriven
▎ - Microsoft Graph / Office 365 — email; calendar sync (provider TBD)
▎ - Dialpad or Twilio — SMto the record
▎ - QuickBooks Online — expense sync
▎ - Word/PDF document gene
▎ - Inbound lead webhook (public web form → de-duplicated intake pipeline)
▎
▎ Anthropic Claude API in production (Phase 2, architected in Phase 1)
▎ - Server-side streaming he API key must not live in the browser
▎ - Per-user token limits acking
▎
▎ Security — this is a fil
▎ This system holds attorney-confidential PII, medical records, and Social
▎ Security numbers.
▎ - HIPAA compliance is non-negotiable: BAA-covered services, encryption at
▎ rest and in transit, strull audit, retention andlegal-hold
▎ - Any AI pipeline touchieep PHI inside BAA-coveredinfrastructure — confirm the model provider offers a BAA before PHI reaches
▎ it
▎ - Secrets management, signed expiring document links, tested backups and
▎ restore, OWASP hygiene, nt separation with noproduction data in lower environments
▎
▎ Strong signal: SOC 2, or prior legal-tech / health-tech work.
▎ Nice-to-have: legal-techne, Litify), productionLLM-app experience, Spanish (the firm operates Miami / Bogotá / Buenos Aires).
