What We Do

We fix legal operations at the foundation. Instead of layering new tools onto stretched processes, we rebuild legal infrastructure from the ground up — with systems design, strategic automation, and AI integration that lets legal teams focus on high-value legal work.

Legal operations strategy & design

Design structured, sustainable legal operations that support business growth while reducing pressure on your team.

In-house legal function build-out

Build legal departments that work from day one — with clear structure, efficient workflows, and frameworks that grow with your business.

Contract workflows & automation

Transform contract bottlenecks into smooth, predictable workflows with smart automation that saves time without sacrificing quality.

Legal tech selection & implementation

Cut through vendor noise and implement technology that works. We help you evaluate, deploy, and optimize your tech stack — including designing custom approaches when standard solutions don't fit.

AI enablement in legal delivery

Harness AI to amplify your legal team's capabilities while maintaining control. Whether implementing existing tools or developing custom AI solutions, we help you stay ahead of the curve.

Cross-functional alignment

Bridge the gap between legal and business teams with clear processes that enable collaboration instead of creating friction.

We adapt our engagement model to what you need most — from strategic guidance to hands-on implementation and capability building.

Strategic Advisory

High-level counsel on legal ops transformation, AI strategy, and operational design for senior legal leaders ready to reshape their function.

Fractional Leadership

Embedded as your interim head of legal ops, transformation lead, or strategic implementation partner — bringing executive-level expertise without the full-time commitment.

Implementation & Optimization

Workshops & Capability Building
