Get guidance

Listen & Understand

Every story starts with you. We ask what happened, when and who was involved, in plain English. Our AI listens carefully, checking facts and key details as you go, so we can understand the full picture before suggesting next steps.

Clarify the Legal Picture

As you chat, BriefBase highlights relevant areas of law like housing, employment, or family and spots what might strengthen your position. You’ll see the main issues and documents that matter most, without needing legal jargon.

Organising the Facts

We arrange your information into a structured timeline and summary. Evidence, messages, and key events are labelled and organised, so a solicitor can review them easily. At the end of the chat you will receive trusted free links and guidance that may help you before creating your brief.

Generate Your Brief

When everything’s ready, BriefBase produces your solicitor-ready brief - a concise document setting out your situation, evidence, and next steps. You can download it, keep it private, or share it directly with a law firm.

Guidance

From deep sea to plain-English legal guidance. A quiet commitment to clarity.

Meet Joel Bailey, our founder. A deep-sea diver who brought checklists, calm handovers and fact-first thinking into BriefBase so your first legal step feels clear, human, and in control.

Joel Bailey, founder of BriefBase

Offshore work taught Joel to trust what’s clear and check what matters: dates, names, evidence and clean handovers. Later, watching friends and family struggle to explain legal problems, he saw the same pattern: people and solicitors speaking different languages. BriefBase is his answer - a plain-English AI guide that listens, organises a timeline and produces a solicitor-ready brief a professional can use straight away.


The principles are simple: Plain English first. Guidance, not advice. Evidence and timelines organised so nothing gets lost. Privacy stays in your hands: you can choose to save your chat for 30 days or keep everything offline. It’s a tool built for real life steady, respectful, and focused on getting you ready.


“When something goes wrong, your first step should be clear and human. BriefBase exists to give you that - Guidance. Clarity. Confidence.
