The Problem

Navigating the evolving challenges facing legal departments

In-house legal departments have to juggle growing demands and rapid shifts in legal requirements, all while showing they bring real strategic value to their company. But without the right in-house legal software and legal technology for in-house teams, they often run into big operational hurdles that ultimately slow things down and make it harder to stay efficient, transparent, and effective.

01

High request volume creates bottlenecks and inefficiency

A common issue all in-house counsel teams try to avoid is delay in cycle times and service delivery caused by a high volume of legal requests from multiple sources. Without centralized in-house legal intake software, tracking and triaging becomes inefficient—slowing response and limiting legal’s ability to meet business needs.

02

The demand for more work with fewer resources

Resource constraints like tight budgets and limited staff are a growing issue for legal departments. Without legal workflow automation software and streamlined matter management tools, lawyers waste time on admin, risk burnout, and struggle to provide high-quality legal support to the business.

03

Limited visibility impacts performance and progress

Without a centralized way to track legal KPIs like response times, matter completion, and lawyer capacity, workloads become imbalanced. Legal teams miss insights that could boost performance. Managing work without tools like an in-house legal management platform limits opportunities to optimize operations.
