Want to hear what it’s really like when a law firm embraces automation? Join us for a discussion with two leaders in legal automation. We’ll explore automation as a part of a broader process tool, take a look at how it’s used today, and consider where automation will take firms in the next few years.

  • Using workflows to support drafting reviews – e.g. enabling junior resources to draft and learn
  • Using document management features to support execution processes from first draft, through negotiation to execution
  • Using portals to support client-facing automation, and moving beyond automation to true engagement
  • Using portals and processes to track obligations – based around CCMT proposal.
  • Using data visualisation for continual improvement in areas like types of transactions, turn-around time, delays, and more
