Pleadings that comply with the rules.
Quillio drafts statements of claim, defences, replies, and counterclaims in the form required by the UCPR, Federal Court Rules, and equivalent state rules.
Quillio drafts first-draft pleadings in the form AU courts require. I produce statements of claim, defences, replies, and counterclaims in compliance with the UCPR (NSW), Civil Procedure Act 2010 (Vic), FCR, and equivalent state rules. Each paragraph pleads material facts (not evidence), follows the numbered-paragraph convention, and uses particulars appropriately. Drafts are a starting point for your strategic judgment, not a finished pleading.
What changes
Drafting a statement of claim for a commercial contract dispute takes 4-6 hours — framing the cause of action, pleading material facts, structuring particulars, and complying with the UCPR form requirements.
Quillio produces a first-draft statement of claim in 10 minutes — causes of action identified, material facts pleaded in numbered paragraphs, particulars structured, and the prayer for relief drafted. You spend your time on the strategic calls that need judgment.
From upload to output
Tell me the facts and the claim
Upload the file — correspondence, contracts, file notes. Tell me the court, the causes of action, and the relief sought. I ask clarifying questions about any gaps.
I identify the causes of action
I map the facts against the available causes of action — breach of contract, ACL misleading conduct (s 18), negligence, breach of statutory duty — and flag which are strongest.
I draft the pleading
Numbered paragraphs pleading material facts (not evidence), particulars where required by the rules, the cause of action clearly identified, and the prayer for relief. In UCPR, FCR, or equivalent state form.
I check compliance
I check the pleading against the UCPR/FCR requirements — statement of claim endorsement, relief framed correctly, particulars sufficient under the rules — and flag anything that needs addressing.
You refine and file
Export to Word. Refine the strategic paragraphs, amend the relief, and file through your usual e-filing or lodgement process.

A real example
You act for a purchaser Pty Ltd on a $2.1m commercial dispute. The vendor misrepresented the financial position of a business during due diligence; your client paid the full purchase price and only discovered the misrepresentation post-completion. You need to file a statement of claim in the NSW Supreme Court.
Upload the SPA, the due diligence material, the post-completion financials, and the correspondence. Tell Quillio the court (NSW Supreme Court, Commercial List) and the causes of action (ACL s 18 misleading conduct, s 20 unconscionable conduct, breach of contract).
In 11 minutes: a 42-paragraph statement of claim in UCPR form, three causes of action pleaded separately (ACL s 18, ACL s 20, breach of SPA warranties), material facts in numbered paragraphs with proper particulars, damages particulars covering the overpayment and consequential losses, and a prayer for relief including rescission in the alternative. Endorsement compliant with UCPR r 4.3.

AI Pleadings Drafting FAQs
Does Quillio's pleading comply with UCPR requirements?
Yes. I follow UCPR requirements for pleadings: material facts pleaded (not evidence), numbered paragraphs, particulars where required (UCPR r 15.1), and the endorsement on the statement of claim (UCPR r 4.3). For Victorian pleadings I follow the Supreme Court (General Civil Procedure) Rules 2015. Check the output against your firm's compliance checklist before filing.
Can Quillio plead ACL claims correctly?
Yes. I plead ACL s 18 misleading or deceptive conduct, s 20 unconscionable conduct, s 29 false representations, and related provisions in the form the Federal Court and state courts expect. I include the damages claim under s 236 and flag where ancillary relief under s 237 is available.
Will Quillio identify the strongest causes of action?
I map the facts against the available causes of action and produce a view on which are strongest. The strategic call — which to run, which to drop, which to hold back — is yours. I surface the options; you decide the strategy.
Does this work for defences and counterclaims too?
Yes. I draft defences responsive to the statement of claim — paragraph-by-paragraph admission or denial, with particulars of defence and any positive case. Counterclaims are pleaded as a separate document following the same conventions.
Is this safe for a significant matter?
Pleadings are consequential and the rules are strict. Quillio produces a first draft; the litigator applies strategic judgment, amends the drafting, and signs off. For a significant matter the drafting time saved is meaningful; the quality control is unchanged.
Can Quillio draft pleadings for specialist lists?
Yes for most — Commercial List, Equity Division, Common Law Division, Family Court, Federal Court general division. For specialist tribunals (AAT, ART, state tribunals) I produce applications in the tribunal's form; check the specific tribunal rules.
Is pleading data confidential?
Yes. Quillio runs on Australian infrastructure under SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001. Matter material and pleadings stay on Australian soil and are never used to train any model.
