Many law firms are using automation to cut costs and free up more time for doing what they do best: practicing law. Management consultancy firm Altman Weil compiled a survey entitled ‘Law Firms in Transition 2019’. The survey found that 48% of firms surveyed are already using automation technology to replace their human resources departments. In fact, 22% said they were losing clients to firms that have utilized technology to reduce the number of lawyers and paralegals in their ranks. Enabling technology to take over manual or repetitive tasks empowers legal professionals to focus their human expertise elsewhere.
Law firms are increasingly looking to invest in and upskill their existing expertise rather than outsourcing. As a firm, digitizing does not only mean getting digital tools for the organization; it also means making the users capable and finding new ways to implement and create tech solutions properly. Through low-code development, legal professionals are working alongside technology and digital specialists, thus involving the end-users of digital solutions in the development or adoption process.
