Why deep automation?

The Clarilis platform was designed specifically to support the complexity of drafting legal documents and the starting point for an automation is the entire matter, not the document.

By using a highly structured data model, Clarilis enables entire suites of complex documents to be drafted from a single questionnaire.

Corporate lawyers can create high quality first drafts of SPAs in under two hours. As key information has already been entered when drafting the main document, ancillary documents can be produced almost instantly - a near 100% time saving. 

But it's more than the technology. Successful automations rely heavily on the input of human legal expertise.

Our fully managed service

With our managed service approach, automation projects are designed, implemented, tested, delivered, and maintained on behalf of the firm.

The Clarilis team of professional support lawyers work with you to evaluate the scope and business benefits of deep automation.

They are with you throughout your relationship with Clarilis - a continuous managed service as your firm evolves and grows. Our PSLs were all previously senior solicitors in private practice or in-house legal teams. Highly experienced people, supported by the unique Clarilis platform.

The winning combination.

Don't sit on the automation side lines

The deal makers who move fastest will claim market advantage.

• Clients are demanding faster turnaround times from their law firm
• Your clients will expect automation as 'standard' - if they don't already
• Maybe share the deep automation benefits with your clients - they will thank you for it

Fee earners are spending too long manually drafting

Resolving square brackets, fixing grammar, bringing in riders (copy/paste, copy/paste), copying paragraphs from other deal docs and changing the structure of the drafting in routine ways.

Sound familiar? It doesn't have to be this way!

Think about what documents you should be automating

Each automation project should be justified in terms of the ROI delivered to the firm. Find out where time is being wasted manually drafting and margins are being squeezed. Often it's the large, complex suites of documents that, once deeply automated by Clarilis, will truly transform your practice.

So our customers tell us:

Do I need to prepare my documents?

There is no requirement for the precedents destined for automation to be ‘perfect’ or ‘signed-off’.  As a general guide, if the relevant precedents are being used by your fee earners on live matters, then they are suitable for automation.  

The Clarilis process involves giving your dedicated Clarilis PSL the precedents that have been selected for automation, together with any relevant riders and drafting notes.  Our experienced team of PSLs and Document Analysts will carry out a very detailed review of the precedents in order to prepare them for automation.

We do all the heavy lifting for you!

What to expect?

At Clarilis all communication is lawyer-to-lawyer and from the outset, clients will have a dedicated Clarilis PSL who will be your single point of contact.  

Experience has shown us that the project is usually best led by the member of your knowledge management team responsible for the precedent(s) being automated.  

Whilst we work with over 40% of the Top UK law firms, experience does not bring complacency. You will have a way you want to work and we want to work with you. Together we can adopt the best approach for your firm, with best-practice experience to build on.
