The Challange
Associates spent hours hunting through old matters for clause wording, then rewriting it for each new contract. Partners worried about consistency, and junior lawyers were stuck on formatting when they should have been learning judgement.
The Solution
We built a private generative AI drafting assistant inside the firm’s document system. It retrieves approved clauses from past matters, drafts a first version matched to the deal type and highlights every change against the precedent. All data stays in the firm’s Azure tenant.
Result
First-draft time for standard agreements cut by 60% Clause consistency issues in partner review down 45% Adoption by 90% of associates within eight weeks
