Automation and integration for legal

In short

A automation and integration for a legal business tackles one specific leak: drafting from precedents, filing correspondence to the right matter, updating a status, requesting standard documents, done by hand by fee earners and admin. It is slow, it ties up billable time, and every manual step is a chance for something to be filed wrong or a status to fall out of date and mislead the next person who looks. Bamco builds it around the tools you already run, so it fits your operation rather than forcing you to change how you work.

The specific leak this plugs

Drafting from precedents, filing correspondence to the right matter, updating a status, requesting standard documents, done by hand by fee earners and admin. It is slow, it ties up billable time, and every manual step is a chance for something to be filed wrong or a status to fall out of date and mislead the next person who looks.

This is not a generic problem with a generic tool bolted on. It is a specific leak in a legal business, and the system is built to close it. You can see the full picture of where a legal business leaks margin on the legal industry page.

What Bamco builds

The automations that take the repetitive matter admin off your people. Correspondence files itself to the right matter, standard documents draft from your precedents ready for a lawyer to review and settle, status updates and standard requests flow without someone keying them, and the handoffs that used to depend on remembering just happen. It works into LEAP, Smokeball and NetDocuments, and a lawyer always reviews the substance before anything leaves the firm.

Two ways in
Ready to talk to the team who would build it?

Bring us the idea you already have, or book an audit and we map where the money is leaking. Either way, you deal directly with the senior team that designs and builds it.

What changes in week one, and by month three

Week one. From week one, the routine admin starts disappearing: correspondence files itself, standard drafts arrive ready for review, and fee earners get billable hours back that used to go to typing and filing.

Month three. By month three the matter admin largely runs itself, your files are cleaner because status is kept current automatically, and your people are doing legal work and client contact rather than data entry, with a lawyer still reviewing the substance of anything that goes out.

What it costs

Engagements typically start around $50k and are scoped after a systems audit, priced as a fraction of what a legacy build of the same capability would have quoted. You get a fixed-scope proposal with a real number before anything is built, and you own what we build. The point is not the price. It is that a well-built automation and integration for a legal business is meant to pay for itself in multiples, by plugging a leak that is costing you every week it stays open.

Common questions

Questions, answered

Does automated drafting mean documents go out without a lawyer checking them?
No. Automation prepares the routine, correspondence filing, standard drafts from your precedents, status updates, so the repetitive work is done for you, but a lawyer always reviews and settles the substance before anything leaves the firm. The goal is billable time back, not judgement removed.
Will it work with the tools our legal business already uses?
Yes. Bamco builds around and into your existing stack, tools like LEAP, Smokeball, Actionstep and the rest of what you run, rather than asking you to replace them. The automation and integration connects to what you have so data flows instead of being re-keyed, and you keep the systems your team already knows.
