Legal library

One approved source, firm to filing.

FirmsVault gives every firm a governed legal library: a platform catalog of templates and forms flows into a library the firm controls, and out to every attorney. Version control and government-form edition tracking mean the whole firm files from one approved source of truth.

Catalog → firm library → attorneys

Content doesn't live in scattered personal folders. It flows down a governed path: the platform maintains a catalog, the firm decides what it installs and approves, and attorneys work from the firm's approved versions — never a private copy that drifts out of sync.

Platform catalog

Template packs
Form templates
Document templates

Maintained centrally. A USCIS form's existence is never firm-specific — it lives in the shared catalog with its own versions.

Firm legal library

Installed packsfirm-scoped
Firm approvals
Pinned versions

The firm owner controls what's installed and approved. Each firm's library is its own — isolated from every other firm.

Attorneys

Work the approved set
Generate & draft
Matters pin a version

Attorneys draft from what the firm approved. A matter pins the exact template version it used, so the record is reproducible.

The firm's library, controlled by the firm

Illustrative view with synthetic content. The firm library is tenant-scoped — each firm sees and controls only its own installed packs, approvals, and pinned versions.

Real version control, not "latest wins"

Templates and forms are versioned artifacts. The firm approves a version; matters pin the version they used; and when a new one arrives, the firm decides when to move — with a preview of what changes — rather than having documents shift underneath active work.

Template versions

v1 — initial
v2 — clause update superseded
v3 — currentfirm-approved

Upgrades run through a preview and a log — the firm sees what would change before adopting a new version.

Government form editions

I-130 · ed. 04/01/24current
N-400 · ed. 04/01/24current
I-765 · new edition watch flagged

Edition-watch tracks when USCIS publishes a new form edition and flags the matters still on the old one — so you never file a superseded form.

Forms, built for filing

FirmsVault treats forms as first-class: structured fields, mapping rules, drafts, missing-data tracking, and review — anchored today by a real USCIS immigration forms library. Forms auto-fill from what the matter already knows, so attorneys refine rather than retype.

Real USCIS forms

The immigration library includes core filings — I-130, I-485, I-765, I-864, I-589, N-400, and AR-11 — as versioned templates with structured fields.

Immigration

Auto-fill from the matter

Mapping rules populate a form from the matter's existing data, so the same fact is never entered twice.

Mapping rules

Drafts & missing data

Every form tracks draft values, what's still missing, and a review checklist before it's considered filing-ready.

Review

Edition tracking

When a government form changes edition, the matters still using the old one are flagged automatically.

Edition watch

The forms engine — catalog, versioning, drafts, mapping, review, and edition-watch — is built and practice-agnostic. The most complete government-form content today is the immigration library; other practices run on the shared document and template workflow while their content libraries expand.
