Senior-led AI consultancy for UK law firms. We find where your lawyers are losing hours — on contract review, leases, drafting, disclosure, taking new clients on — then build the tools that quietly take the work off them. Runs inside your firm, full audit trail, written for the way the SRA expects you to operate.
Your lawyers didn’t qualify to spend half their week on bundle-building, time recording and drafting boilerplate.
The work that doesn’t go on a client invoice — but does come out of every partner’s margin.
We’ve mapped these across boutique practices, mid-market firms and one international top-50. Same shapes, different software. The hours add up the same way.
AI pulls out the clauses that matter, flags anything that breaks your firm’s position, and drafts the redlines in your house style. A senior signs off; AI does the first ninety percent.
Document review, redaction suggestions, privilege flags, bundle indexing. Your reviewer becomes the editor, not the typist.
Engagement letters drafted from the conflict-check upwards. Source-of-funds checks. Politically-exposed-person screening. The anti-money-laundering notes drafted from documents the client has already given you.
AI watches the work as it happens — emails, calendars, document edits — and drafts the time-recording narratives ready for a partner to approve. Stops the Friday scramble. Stops the silent write-offs.
Your firm’s past advice, engagement letters and precedents, askable in plain English. Trained on your house style, not the public internet.
First drafts of client updates, advice notes, board papers and standard letters — written in your firm’s voice, not the generic ChatGPT one.
No retainers. No subscriptions. No chatbot you wrestle into your stack. We start by costing the problem in pounds — and only build if the maths works.
A senior AI lead spends 90 minutes inside your firm. We map weekly fee-earner work, score each piece for time, risk and AI fit, and return a board-grade written plan within 48 hours.
We build the tools the audit identified, around your matter management system, your precedent library and your firm’s drafting voice. Pilot first; pay only if hours saved are real.
We’ve built AI inside firms regulated by the SRA, the FCA, the ICO and the GMC. Compliance isn’t a final-page disclaimer here — it shapes the architecture from the audit forward.
Or in a UK-isolated tenant you own. No cross-border data flows by default.
Client data does not leak into model weights. We use models with contractual no-training guarantees, isolated by tenant.
Exportable for SRA, ICO or internal review. Who asked what, when, against which document.
Privileged material doesn’t leave your tenancy. Vendor access is gated, time-bounded, logged.
Where the work is regulated or client-facing, AI drafts. A qualified person posts. Always.
High-risk legal use cases get extra controls: documented testing, human review gates, transparency notices.
We hand you a Data Protection Impact Assessment template, a technical security note and a sub-processor list with every Build — the documents your DPO and procurement team will ask for anyway.
If we part ways, the system keeps running. Documented. Handover-ready. Nothing held hostage.
Ninety minutes with a senior AI lead. Structured, no preamble. We’re not selling you the future of AI — we’re costing the present of your firm.
Practice areas, fee-earner mix, matter management system, document store, billing system, current AI experiments. No generic discovery.
One real matter, end-to-end. Where the hours go. Which are billed. Which are written off. Which never get logged. We watch how the work actually moves.
Strong fits, partial fits, ones we’d tell you to leave alone. Each scored on hours saved, risk, and effort to build. Compliance flags applied as we go.
Where to start. What it would cost. The written summary lands in your inbox within 48 hours — ranked, costed, board-ready.
Client matter data stays in a UK tenancy by default. For high-sensitivity practice areas (criminal, family, certain commercial) we offer fully air-gapped or on-premises deployment. We don’t use models that train on input. Cross-border processing is opt-in, documented, and disclosed in the DPIA.
Privileged material is processed inside your tenancy with no third-party read access. Vendor support requires explicit, time-bounded, audit-logged access. Outputs and prompts are stored in your environment. We can sign privilege-aware NDAs and joint-defence-style protocols where engagements warrant it.
The SRA doesn’t certify AI vendors — it regulates firms. Our job is to make sure the architecture lets you meet your obligations: client confidentiality (Principle 7), competence and supervision (Code of Conduct 3), and accurate billing. The audit deliverable flags any workflow that creates supervision risk before you spend on Build.
No. We remove the work that fee-earners shouldn’t be doing in the first place — the time-capture admin, the disclosure transcription, the precedent hunt — so qualified people spend more time on the work that actually requires them. Our most successful Build engagements end with junior fee-earners getting more interesting work, not less.
Because we’re not selling a product. Most legal-AI vendors give you a generic chatbot bolted onto a doc store and ask you to shape your firm around it. We do the opposite: map your firm first, then build a tool that fits the matter. Your precedents. Your house style. Your risk model.
Boutiques to mid-market to international. The audit pays back at any scale where your lawyers cost the firm £120k+ all-in and spend 18%+ of the week on repeatable work. That’s most UK practices.
From £15,000 for focused tools (e.g. matter intake automation, time capture). £30k–£120k for sector-wide builds (contract review systems, disclosure platforms). The audit gives you the number for your firm before you commit. No estimate inflation.
Usually within five working days for the audit. Confirmed by email after we receive your booking and clear the conflict check.
Senior-led. Refundable against Build. The audit pays for itself the moment you commission us to act on it — and even if you don’t, you walk with the plan.
