For law firms

A practical path to AI adoption for law firms

We work with managing partners, COOs, and practice heads to move from scattered AI experiments to firm-wide workflows. Start with a leadership session, follow with an in-firm lab day, then run a 60–90 day adoption sprint focused on high-impact workflows.

How we work

Three steps to firm-wide adoption

Step 1

Align leadership on what AI should do for the firm

We start with partners, COOs, and practice heads. Using a keynote or Art of the Possible workshop, we map where AI fits in your practice mix, surface risks and constraints, and leave you with a short list of workflows worth testing in the next 90 days.

Step 2

Train your lawyers and build high impact workflows

We run an in firm AI Lab Day to train your team, then launch a 60-90 day adoption sprint. Together we pick two or three workflows, build them out with guardrails, and track adoption.

Step 3

Get embedded support on active matters

For document-heavy cases, we join your team. Processing discovery, building timelines, organizing exhibits, and helping lawyers extract insights from thousands of pages.

What leadership gets

  • A shared view of where AI helps and where it should stay out.
  • A prioritized list of workflows to test in the next 90 days.
  • A simple plan with checkpoints, metrics, and owners.
  • Security and risk guardrails reviewed with GC and IT.
  • Partner-ready summaries that explain progress in plain language.

What the team gets

  • Role-based training for partners, associates, paralegals, and staff.
  • Starter prompt libraries and checklists for key workflows.
  • Office hours and coaching to work through real matters.
  • Clear guidelines on safe use, review steps, and what not to do.
  • A handoff plan so internal champions can keep things moving.

Common starting points

Where we usually start

We work across many practice areas, but most firms see fast wins in a few common workflows.

  • Drafting and refining motions, briefs, and client letters.
  • Intake, matter triage, and client communication templates.
  • Research support and summarizing long records or transcripts.
  • Internal knowledge search and summarizing firm precedents.
  • For allied valuation or PE work: standardizing reports and analysis notes.

AI Case Support

When you need help on a live matter

Sometimes the pain isn't "we need to learn AI." It's "we have 8,000 documents and depositions start in six weeks."

AI Case Support puts an experienced AI practitioner alongside your legal team on active matters. We handle the document processing, timeline construction, exhibit organization, and insight extraction so your attorneys can focus on case strategy.

What this looks like

We work directly with your team on a specific matter. Using AI tools, we process large document sets, surface key facts, build chronologies, organize materials for depositions or trial, and help attorneys query the record faster than any manual review would allow.

Where firms use this

  • Discovery-heavy litigation with thousands of documents
  • Family law matters with complex financial records
  • Cases requiring detailed timelines or chronologies
  • Trial prep when the team is stretched thin
  • Any matter where document volume is slowing you down

What you get

  • An embedded AI specialist working on your matter, not a tool you have to figure out
  • Organized, queryable document sets your attorneys can actually use
  • Timelines, summaries, and exhibits built to your specifications
  • Knowledge transfer so your team learns as we work

How it starts

A 20-minute call to understand the matter, the document volume, and what you need. We'll tell you if we can help and what the engagement would look like.

CLE clarity

How we handle CLE credit

When the workshop is hosted through accredited providers such as the Beverly Hills Bar Association, Los Angeles County Bar Association, or AAML, attendees automatically receive California MCLE credit.

For private firm engagements, we supply the agendas, learning objectives, attendance forms, and instructions your CLE coordinator needs to file in any jurisdiction. Many firms are accredited providers already—we simply plug into their process.

Translation: your attorneys get the credit they need, and you stay compliant without chasing paperwork.
