Confirming receipt of your discovery responses. We will review and circle back by end of week.
I can do Tuesday 2 PM or Thursday morning for the meet-and-confer. Let me know what works.
Thanks for reaching out. Before I can discuss the matter, I need to run a conflicts check. I will follow up shortly.
The fifteen one-line replies a day, drafted
- Acknowledge receipt, propose times, flag a conflict — in your voice.
- Tap to drop into the composer; edit and send.
- Reclaim the half hour you lose to throwaway responses.
Where: Open any thread.
“We should meet and confer on the discovery disputes — what’s your availability this week?”
“I can do Monday at 1 or Wednesday at 3:30 ET for the meet-and-confer. Let me know which works and I’ll circulate an invite.”
Send meet-and-confer times, not a scheduling link
A booking link to opposing counsel lands wrong. Two specific times don’t.
- Airo proposes times that clear your calendar and existing matter deadlines.
- Holds the slots so a hearing or deposition can’t quietly take the time you offered.
- When they confirm, one tap calendars it with the matter tagged and the invite sent.
Where: Scheduling.
