AI for legal and notary
Lawyers spend half their day on work that is not lawyering.
40 to 60 percent of legal time goes to contract drafting and review, work that follows a pattern but demands perfection. AI handles the pattern so your team focuses on the counsel that clients actually pay for.

The forces working against firms right now
Fee pressure and talent churn are accelerating while the volume of reviewable documents only grows.
Review consumes billable capacity
40 to 60 percent of attorney time goes to drafting and reviewing contracts. That is time that could be spent on strategy, negotiation, or client counsel.
Hallucination risk in generic models
General-purpose AI tools hallucinate legal citations and misstate obligations. Domain-specific tooling and human oversight are non-negotiable for legal work.
Fee pressure from clients
Clients increasingly resist paying full rates for work they believe a computer should handle. Firms that automate review can pass savings on without sacrificing margin.
Talent retention at the associate level
Junior associates spend years on document review before they ever practice. The best leave for roles where they learn faster and burn out less.
What we hear
These new LLMs are the most disruptive technology since the computer, if not the printing press.
We bill for review the client thinks a computer should do for free.
First-year associates burn out on document review before they ever practice.
Six ways to reclaim your lawyers' time
Each targets a real drain on your firm, from contract review to matter management, plotted by the impact it creates against the effort to stand it up. Upper-left is the most return for the least lift.
Contract and document drafting
Every agreement starts from a template that someone still has to fill, adapt, and check by hand.
Where a person stays. An attorney reviews every draft before it leaves the firm. The system drafts, never sends.
Time-to-value estimates draw on published deployments and are indicative only. Every organization's data, systems, and starting point are different.
What would your attorneys do with half the review work gone?
The biggest reductions land on high-volume document tasks. Strategic counsel, negotiation, and client relationships stay firmly with your lawyers.
