Scrape Court Filings → Extract Key Details → Generate Legal Summary Report

Use Apify's web scraping actors to monitor court databases like PACER or state court systems. Set up scheduled runs to check for new filings related to specific case numbers, company names, or legal topics. Configure the scraper to extract document titles, dates, and PDF links.

Connect Apify to Zapier to trigger when new court documents are found. Set up filters to only process relevant document types (motions, orders, pleadings) and use Zapier's built-in PDF text extraction to convert documents to readable text.

Send extracted text to GPT-4 with a specialized prompt to identify: case status, key parties, important dates, legal arguments, court decisions, and potential implications. Request output in structured JSON format for consistent processing.

Use Zapier to automatically populate a Google Sheets database with GPT-4's structured output. Create columns for Case Name, Date, Parties, Status, Key Points, and Risk Assessment. Set up conditional formatting to highlight high-priority cases.

Configure Zapier to automatically compose and send email summaries to your legal team or clients. Include case highlights, important deadlines, and links to full documents. Set up different email templates based on case type or recipient role.
