Most people receive two or three letters a year they cannot make sense of: a payment reminder for an amount they do not recall, a utility bill with an unexpected balance, a fine with a deadline that is already running. The problem is rarely the law itself — it is not knowing whether you have to respond, and by when.

Smart Legal Pro takes that first step for you. Upload the letter as a PDF or a photo, and the AI explains in plain language what it is about, which deadline applies and what your options are. Where a reply makes sense, it drafts one for you to download and send.

What the platform deliberately does not do: replace a lawyer. Where something is genuinely at stake, it says so — and hands your matter to a verified law firm on request, with all documents and the assessment so far.

What you can actually get done

Nine things the platform can do today — each without an appointment and without legal background.

  1. Instant assessment

    Upload a PDF or photo — the AI summarizes what really matters.

  2. Deadlines auto-detected

    We highlight deadlines stated in the letter so you can respond in time. The wording of the letter itself is always what counts.

  3. One-click reply

    Polite, factual, clear — tailored to your tone.

  4. A lawyer when it gets serious

    In case of real risks you export your case in a structured way and pass it on to a firm of your choice — with documents, facts and summary, so that nothing has to be explained twice.

  5. Never pay for the same document twice

    Upload the same letter a second time by mistake — we recognize the content by checksum and offer the document already on file, with its existing analysis, instead of charging you again.

  6. Supported in court, too

    If your matter becomes a small civil case, the litigation companion guides you: a draft of the complaint or reply, court mail explained in plain language, deadlines in view. You represent yourself and file yourself — the AI is your tool, not a lawyer.

  7. Even by phone

    Instead of typing, just tell Lexi or Lex what's going on — the AI listens, asks targeted follow-ups and sums up what to do at the end.

  8. Names stay protected

    Before text goes to the AI, the platform replaces recognized names, addresses and account numbers with placeholders by default. This is not anonymization — so the chat shows a preview first, and you can switch masking on or off in the settings.

  9. In your language

    The interface is available in German, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Polish.

  • Chat with follow-ups in the matter

You do not need to know the legal name for the letter. You only need to know that ignoring it is not an option.
The most common reason deadlines pass is not carelessness — it is uncertainty.

Even when all you have is your phone

A photo of the letter is enough. The platform reads the text even from a crooked snapshot, assigns your matter to a topic and suggests the next step. If you would rather talk than type, you can describe the matter in a voice conversation instead.

Limitation periods

How much time you have left

Most claims become time-barred three years after the end of the year in which they arose. The claim does not disappear, but the other side may refuse payment permanently. Pick the year your claim arose and you will see straight away how much time is left.

Limitation period check

Standard limitation period under Secs. 195, 199 German Civil Code — no account, no credits, right here.

In which year did the claim arise?
End of the standard limitation period

31 December 2026

Expiring soon — 54 days left

A claim arising in 2023 becomes time-barred at the end of 31 December of the third following year: three years under Sec. 195 German Civil Code, starting only at the end of the year in which it arose (Sec. 199(1)).

What this check does not cover

  • Special provisions with shorter periods — such as Sec. 438 (sales law) or Sec. 548 German Civil Code (tenancy law), sometimes only six months.
  • The absolute long-stop periods under Sec. 199(3) and (4) German Civil Code, which apply regardless of knowledge.
  • Suspension of the limitation period, for instance by filing a claim or a payment order (Sec. 204 German Civil Code), which can push the deadline back considerably.
