Hi, I m Mikhail, the founder of CaseCraft.

Recovering a debt of 4,000 through the courts is often not cost-effective due to high legal fees - which is why many people simply write off such amounts as losses. (Have you ever dealt with a situation like this?)

My co-founders and I have built a tool that I personally would have been happy to offer clients in this exact position.

CaseCraft assists with monetary claims in England and Wales - no matter where you are located. Simply upload your invoices, emails, contracts, or accounting documents, and the platform will organize them into formal claims, prepare a summary of the facts and evidence for your review, and draft all necessary correspondence. The service assesses the merits of each case, tracks responses, and monitors all deadlines - for claims of up to 100,000.
Now, you no longer need to spend a fortune on expensive legal services.

Hey everyone

Our old launch guide was getting pretty outdated. Lots of things changed since it was written: the submission flow, the scheduling rules, how points work, and more. So we rebuilt it from scratch.

Hi Product Hunt, I'm Mikhail - a London litigation solicitor who ended up building software
I'm a practising litigation solicitor in London. Most of my working day is court deadlines, letters before action and arguments about costs. It isn't glamorous, but it shows you where the real pain is.
The pain I kept seeing was businesses giving up on money they were owed. Chasing a 4,000 invoice through the courts makes no sense at lawyer rates, so most people write it off. My co-founders and I built the tool I wanted to hand those clients. It's called CaseCraft
My view, for what it's worth, is that drafting is the easy part of legal work to automate. The hard part is judgement and commercial sense: knowing which claim is worth bringing and when to settle. Software should take the paperwork so people can spend their time on that.
Outside work I play tennis four or five hours a week, which mostly teaches me humility. I also get around London on a forest bike, which takes care of the rest.
I'm here to learn from people who've launched before, especially anyone building for lawyers or finance teams. If you're working on legal tech, fintech or B2B automation, say hello. I'm happy to swap notes or answer questions about getting paid in England and Wales.
