AI systems for law firms that ship in weeks, not quarters_
62% of legal professionals use AI individually. 29% of firms have deployed it at the workflow level. The gap isn't awareness or budget — it's implementation. Formulaic builds the production systems that close that gap.
Your team uses ChatGPT. Your firm hasn't deployed AI_
Associates use ChatGPT for research. Partners saw the demo. The innovation committee approved a pilot. And then nothing happened. The prototype sat in staging. The team went back to doing it manually.
The problem isn't the AI — it's the last mile. Connecting the model to your case management system. Handling privilege and confidentiality. Building something your team actually uses on Monday morning. That's what we do.
What we build for law firms_
Client intake and triage
AI-powered intake forms that score enquiries by case type, complexity, and financial value. High-value matters route directly to the right solicitor or attorney. Unqualified calls are filtered before they reach a fee earner.
Document drafting and review
AI drafts standard letters, contracts, and pleadings from matter data and firm templates. Each draft is presented for human review. Removes the copy-paste-adjust cycle that consumes hours of admin time daily.
Bundle preparation
Automated case bundle assembly with document ordering, index generation, pagination, and cross-referencing. Turns a 4-hour manual task into a 15-minute review.
Compliance and conflict checking
AI cross-references new matters against existing clients, regulatory requirements, and professional conduct rules. AML/KYC checks run automatically at intake. Conflicts are flagged before work begins.
Matter management automation
AI monitors case stages, updates deadlines, triggers next actions, and generates status reports. Reduces the admin overhead that keeps fee earners from billable work.
Client communication
Automated status updates drafted from case notes. Follow-up sequences for unresponsive clients. Meeting prep summaries. Reduces "where's my case" calls by 60-80%.
Built for legal, not adapted from something else_
Every system connects to your practice management platform — LEAP, Clio, Proclaim, Osprey, PracticePanther, MyCase, or Smokeball. We don't replace your tools; we fill the gaps between them.
Data residency is handled explicitly. Client data stays on infrastructure in your jurisdiction — UK servers for UK firms, US hosting for American practices. Your regulator's requirements are built into the system design, not bolted on as an afterthought.
We start with the audit: £3,500 / $4,500 over two weeks to map your workflows, identify the highest-ROI opportunities, and propose a build plan. The audit fee is deducted from your first build.
Do we need to change our case management system? +
No. We integrate with whatever you run — LEAP, Clio, Proclaim, Osprey, PracticePanther, MyCase, Smokeball, and others. We build around your existing stack.
Is AI safe for regulated legal work? +
Yes, when built with the right guardrails. Every system we build includes audit logging, human-in-the-loop review for sensitive decisions, and compliance with your regulator's requirements — SRA rules in the UK, state bar ethics opinions in the US, or law society standards in AU/CA.
How long before we see ROI? +
Most firms see measurable time savings within the first month of deployment. Full ROI — where the system has paid for itself — typically arrives within 3-6 months depending on the use case and firm size.
What practice areas do you work with? +
Conveyancing, family law, commercial litigation, employment, corporate, and private client. The patterns transfer across practice areas — intake, document handling, compliance, and client communication follow similar structures.
Where is our data stored? +
On infrastructure in your jurisdiction. UK servers for UK firms, US hosting for American practices. We deploy on infrastructure you control — your cloud account, your credentials. Nothing is stored on our systems.
Can we start with just one system? +
Yes. Most firms start with a single workflow — usually client intake or document drafting. The Scoped Build engagement (£15-150k) covers one system end-to-end. If you want to validate the opportunity first, start with the AI Audit (£3,500).
