Standfirst: Adversarial testing is standard in finance and security. A case workspace sold to lawyers in the UK and the Philippines is bringing the idea to litigation prep. It isn't available in the US yet.
In New York, red teams are a fixture of bank security and AI safety testing. Their job is to attack a system before someone else does. The same instinct is now showing up in tools for trial lawyers, though not yet on this side of the Atlantic.
ilovelawyer, built by FORHU, is a case workspace for legal practitioners in the UK and the Philippines. Among its analysis panes is one called Red Team. It reads the case file and lists the arguments opposing counsel is most likely to raise, ranked by threat. A suggested response comes with each.
How it differs from a chatbot
The pane is not a question box. It works from the documents already in the matter. It sits beside a Contradiction scan, which flags conflicting dates, amounts and durations across the bundle and shows both sources with page references. There is also a narrative tool that tells the case three ways, including from the other side.
When answers cite law, the system keeps a link only if it points to a source the assistant actually retrieved. That is a direct response to the fabricated-citation cases that have embarrassed lawyers in US and UK courts.
