How this service works
Keyless pay-per-call APIs for AI agents: 30 tools across compliance, trade, safety, web and data. Pay per call with USDC on Base via x402. No account, no API key.
Output
A JSON object containing: federal court dockets (case name, court, nature of suit, filing date, judge), bankruptcy filings with chapter number, and published court opinions with citations — all filtered by the optional court ID and filed-after date if provided.
Example use cases
Due diligence litigation check
“I'm about to sign a major contract with Acme Corp — can you pull their full US federal litigation history, including any bankruptcies and court opinions, so I can see if there are any red flags before we close the deal?”
Vendor compliance screening
“We need to vet a new supplier called Bright Future Logistics. Can you look up their federal court dockets, any bankruptcy filings, and published opinions to make sure they don't have a problematic litigation record?”
Personal litigation history lookup
“Can you find all federal lawsuits and court opinions involving a person named Robert J. Malone? I want to know if he's been party to any federal cases or bankruptcies, especially anything filed in the last five years.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://toolsmith-api.dassad10.workers.dev/t/legal/casesWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a consolidated US federal litigation profile for a company or person in a single call, especially for due diligence, compliance checks, or legal research. Prefer this over direct PACER access when you want a simple JSON response without an API key, and when you need dockets, bankruptcy, and opinions in one aggregated result.
Side effects
- No cases found for the queried name — returns empty results array
- Invalid court ID provided — may return error or empty results
- Payment failure via x402 — call not executed
- Rate limiting or worker timeout for very common names with large result sets
- Name ambiguity causing unrelated cases to be returned
