Where we practice

Florida

Deep

Florida is where the state-law layer runs deepest. Trial Commander was built by a practicing Florida trial lawyer, and each Florida surface below was reviewed by a Florida-barred attorney before it shipped.

What it does not do

Local rules and administrative orders are not computed, and a judge's case management order controls over any default date. Every date is a draft for the attorney to confirm.

The rest of the platform

Everything that is not state law works the same in Florida as anywhere else: matters, discovery review, drafting with attorney review, time and billing, trust ledgers, the Word and Outlook add-ins, calendar sync and the AI connector. A Florida matter in federal court also gets the Federal Rules clocks for its district.

Law never crosses a state line: a Florida matter receives Florida law and federal law, and no other state’s. How the firewall works

Florida in depth

Court deadlines on the Florida court calendar

Answer and proposal-for-settlement deadlines (Rules 1.140(a) and 1.442(b)) counted under Rule 2.514: the statutory court holidays, each circuit's own designated days where we have verified its published schedule (with a note on the deadline where we have not), and court closures your firm records.

Rules 1.280 and 1.200

Florida's 2025 civil rules move initial disclosures and the case management schedule into the first months of a case. What the two rules require, and a checklist for every file.

FL Portal Sync

Copy a case's docket from the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal in your own browser and paste it onto the matter; new entries can be pulled onto the matter's timeline. Trial Commander never signs in to the Portal and does not e-file.

Trust accounting and fees

Florida IOTA trust accounts built around Rules 5-1.1 and 5-1.2, with three-way reconciliation, and fee gates drafted around Rule 4-1.5.
