Services

Start with the question you’re actually asking.

We work with firms at three very different moments. You’ll recognize yours by the question in your head. Pick it below and we’ll open just that answer.

1For firms asking

“Should we do this?”

Readiness Audit & Strategy Starter

You’re not ready to buy anything, and you shouldn’t be. The Readiness Audit answers the question first: where AI would actually help your firm, where it wouldn’t, and what to do about it.

We start from what you already run — your tools, your workflows, the way your team actually works — and find where AI augments it. Not a brand-new stack chased off the latest trend and rebuilt around.

From $650 for a solo attorney.

  • A guided discovery session A real conversation about how your firm runs: here’s how the interviews work.
  • Use case identification The specific places in your practice where AI earns its keep.
  • Tech stack analysis What you already own, and what it can already do.
  • A priority roadmap What to do first, second, and not at all.
  • An executive summary The whole picture, short enough to read between hearings.
  • A 30-day action plan Concrete next steps you can start on Monday.
  • A 60-minute review call We walk you through all of it and answer everything.
Yours to keep

Everything the Readiness Audit produces stays with you — even if you never hire us to implement a single thing.

And it works with whatever AI platform you choose. No lock-in.

2For firms asking

“How do we do this?”

Bespoke Implementation Packages

You’ve decided. Now someone has to build it, and someone has to get your whole team actually using it (the part everyone else skips).

Christian builds it

The workflows, the integrations, the guardrails, wired into the systems you already run.

Meagan implements it

With your entire team, not just the partners. Change management, SOPs put into practice, training, adoption.

Most legal tech fails after the invoice is paid, when the tool sits unused because nobody changed how the work gets done. That second half is the whole point of these packages.

We build around the tools you already use. No rip-and-replace, no lock-in, and implementation is always optional.

Everything we build from what is in your team’s heads is yours to keep: the automations, the prompt libraries, the AI usage policy, the workflow maps. All of it runs on whatever platform you choose.

no contractno subscriptionone-time paymentno hidden fees

Advisory support only. It does not include full implementation, software development, or large-scale consulting.

Attorney-informed and vendor-neutral: every session is backed by a licensed attorney and legal engineer.

4For firms asking

“We already bought it. How do we use it?”

Training & Enablement

Maybe a partner signed up for the AI tool, or you inherited a practice-management platform nobody fully uses. The software works; the habits never formed. We train your team on the tools you already have and build the routines that make them stick, so the licenses you are already paying for finally earn their keep.

  • Role-based training Tailored to how each seat actually works: attorneys, paralegals, admin, and IT, not one generic webinar.
  • Quick-reference SOPs Short, firm-specific guides for the tools you use most, so nobody has to remember a live session.
  • Hands-on working sessions We use the tool on your real matters, together, until it feels normal instead of new.
  • Adoption follow-up A check-in a few weeks later to catch what slipped and reinforce what stuck.

How we work, whichever door you take

Whichever door you chose — 

Four principles. Non-negotiable.

these hold across everything above: the Readiness Audit, the build, the quick question on a Tuesday.

Integration without reinvention

We enhance the tools you already use rather than replacing them.

Open source where it matters

Open-source wherever it counts — no vendor lock-in, and you keep control.

Privacy by deployment

Local models on your own machines for sensitive work — client data stays under your roof. Frontier models only when a task truly needs them.

Start small, then grow

Automate one thing — intake, citation checks — then grow, without rebuilding your foundations.

Client data stays under your roof. That’s not a feature. It’s the starting condition.

The whole road

One firm, every phase.

01PlanStrategy, and where AI actually helps.
02ChooseThe right models and tools.
03DeployBuilt into the systems you already run.
04IntegrateAdopted across the whole team.

We stay from strategic planning all the way through full integration — one firm, every phase.

Not sure which door?

Ask us. We’ll tell you straight.

If the honest answer is “you don’t need us yet,” that’s the answer you’ll get.
