Project Brief
A prominent national law practice wanted legal software development to speed their legal research process, improve case analysis, and gain a competitive advantage.
Client Background
The law practice, known for its expertise in complicated litigation and regulatory concerns, possessed a massive collection of legal documents, case law, and regulatory filings. However, manually sorting through these documents was time-consuming, error-prone, and hampered their capacity to discover hidden insights and patterns.
Key Challenges:
Solution:
1. Discovery and Planning
We began a thorough discovery process, speaking with the law company's partners, associates, and legal researchers to better understand their research workflows, pain spots, and intended outcomes. We thoroughly reviewed their current legal assets and data repositories.
2. Development
Our experienced legal tech specialists and software engineers used Python and Django to create a stable and scalable backend that was capable of handling complicated legal data and NLP algorithms. React was used to create an intuitive and responsive user interface with quick access to search results, statistics, and visualisations. We used Elasticsearch to run an advanced search engine capable of processing complicated legal questions and retrieving relevant documents fast and correctly.
3. Implementation
We collaborated closely with the law firm's IT staff to ensure the legal research and analytics platform was implemented safely and seamlessly. This included connecting the platform with the company's current document management and knowledge repositories. We also held full training sessions for solicitors and legal experts to ensure that they could efficiently use the platform's capabilities.
