Free for law students.

Cite-check your memo, note or brief before it's due. Every fix names the rule, so you learn it as you go.

A page of citations with one underlined in blue, and a line from it to a card that names the rule, R. 1.2.

Made for the work you have this week.

The legal writing memo

Check it before it's due. One click fixes each of the page spans, parentheticals and short forms your professor marks, with the rule named beside it.

The journal cite-check

Check a note or an article under the Whitepages. Pick the law-review profile and Counselcite applies the journal rules: small capitals for books and journals, short forms within five footnotes, and id. across footnotes.

The moot court brief

Check it under the Bluepages, confirm every case against the court record, and get a Table of Authorities built from the brief's own citations.

You fix the citation and learn the rule at the same time.

A finding shows what you wrote, what it should read, and the rule behind the change. Apply it or dismiss it; either way the rule links to a plain-English page, so next time you get it right on your own.

The rule library

A finding on a page span: the original, the correction, and the rules behind it.

What comes back.

You get back the document you uploaded, with the corrections you accepted made in it and nothing else touched.

As written

A fact is material if it might affect the outcome of the suit under the governing law. Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 247-248, (1986). The moving party bears the initial burden of showing the absence of a genuine dispute. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322-323 (1986). Id., at 323. Overtime is owed under 29 USCA § 207(a)(1).

Questions

Which email addresses count?

Any address at a law school or university, such as one ending in .edu. Sign up with it and we put you on the Individual plan, free. A personal address gets the free tier instead, which is ten documents a week.

Does it do law review footnotes?

Yes. Pick the law-review profile and Counselcite checks footnotes under the Whitepages, including short forms within five footnotes and id. between footnotes.

Will it write citations for me?

No. It checks the citations you've written and shows the corrected form for each one, with the rule behind it. It won't find or generate a citation you haven't written.
