Everything you type into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini about your lawsuit, your legal situation, or your case strategy can be demanded by the other side in court. LitigationVault.ai is the fix.
Designed by lawyers. Your AI conversations are vaulted under attorney-client privilege and reviewed by a licensed U.S. attorney.
If you're involved in a lawsuit — or think you might be — and you've been using ChatGPT, Claude, or any AI to ask legal questions, organize your facts, or figure out your options, here's what you need to know:
In February 2026, a federal judge ruled that everything you type into a public AI tool about your legal situation — and every response the AI gives you — can be demanded by the other side's lawyers and used against you in court. Attorney-client privilege does not protect it. Not even if you send the AI's output to your lawyer afterward.
United States v. Heppner, No. 1:25-cr-00503 (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 2026) (Rakoff, J.)Why? Because when you use a public AI tool, you're sharing your information with a third party (the AI company). That breaks confidentiality — and without confidentiality, there's no privilege. It doesn't matter that you were trying to help your case. The damage is done the moment you hit "send."
LitigationVault.ai was designed by lawyers to solve exactly this problem. When you use AI through our platform, your conversations are vaulted — securely stored, encrypted, and protected by attorney-client privilege — because a real, licensed U.S. attorney is connected to your account and has access to review everything.
The court in Heppner said privilege could still apply if AI is used "at the direction of counsel" inside a "confidential system with proper safeguards." That's exactly what LitigationVault.ai is. Your attorney directs the engagement. The system is secure. Your conversations are protected.
You still get to use the AI you prefer — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or a private model — but now everything goes through a secure, privilege-preserving vault instead of a public app.
Whether you're an individual or a law firm inviting clients, the process is simple.
Create your account and sign the retainer agreement for vaulting services. Takes 2 minutes. If you're a law firm, invite your clients via email or text.
→Choose Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or a private model. Ask any question about your legal situation. Switch between models anytime.
→The AI gives you its analysis with a clear note: this is computer-generated, not legal advice — your attorney will review it.
→Your assigned attorney reviews the vaulted conversation. You get notified when they do. Need follow-up? Book a call right from the platform.
Every AI chat is encrypted, stored securely, and accessible only to you and your assigned attorney. This is the "vault" — your privilege-protected record.
For individual plans, a licensed U.S. attorney is assigned to your account under a retainer agreement. Their involvement is what makes privilege work.
Use Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or a privately-hosted model. Different AI, same protection. Switch between them anytime.
When your attorney reviews your vaulted information, you get notified. You always know the status of your vault.
For law firms: attorney review time is automatically tracked and synced to Clio. Your clients' AI interactions become billable work.
If privilege is ever challenged, the vault produces a complete record: who asked what, when, which attorney directed it, and the security controls in place.
All models are accessed through secure enterprise APIs — never public consumer apps.
This is important: the AI gives you its analysis, but it's a computer program — not an attorney. Every response comes with a clear notice:
The AI answers your questions — including legal strategy questions — but it's honest about what it is. Your assigned attorney then reviews the vaulted conversation and can follow up with real legal guidance when needed.
Individuals get an assigned attorney. Law firms invite their clients.
Every day you use public AI for legal questions is a day your legal strategy is exposed. Two minutes to sign up. Real protection from day one.
Cancel anytime. No long-term contracts. Retainer agreement included.
