Data Sovereignty
Built for confidentiality — not retrofitted for it
For lawyers across the DACH region, protecting client data is a professional obligation, not a checkbox. CASUS hosts exclusively in Switzerland and the EU — Google Cloud in Zurich — and runs its AI inference in Switzerland and the EU. Legora’s published data residency options are EU/EEA and the US; Switzerland is not among them.

Legora’s own sources page names German federal law next to sources for the US, the UK, France, Scandinavia, Portugal, Turkey, Australia and Singapore — broad, but neither Swiss nor Austrian law is among them.

The bottom line
DACH legal work deserves a legal AI built for it
Legora is a global platform. But if your work is German, Austrian or Swiss — local law, local confidentiality rules and the German language — a tool built in the region simply fits better. CASUS offers depth in German, Austrian and Swiss law, data that never leaves Switzerland and the EU, native Word integration and transparent pricing the whole team can use.
