Clifford Chance

Technology directly impacts how we deliver legal services, both now and in the future, with the potential to not only save time and cost but also deliver better outcomes and gain competitive advantage.

Our approach to digital transformation using legal technology extends across three timeframes:

Today: Using a core tech stack in collaboration with clients to deliver better outcomes on legal matters.

Tomorrow: Using digital and AI to deliver our legal services in different and innovative ways.

Beyond: Building our capability to address shared tech challenges in the industry and exploring emerging technologies relevant to our legal services.

We bring you the latest tech. Our teams include Legal Technology advisors, IT professionals and data scientists working together with our lawyers to understand your specific needs. We then use the best technology solutions, either from our own tech stack or the latest innovations from around the world, at the same time as prioritising compliance and security issues.

We collaborate with you to complete projects faster and with greater transparency, transforming how our lawyers work for optimal efficiency and quality, supported by robust risk management. Our tech resources form an integrated part of the efficiencies we generate through Continuous Improvement, Legal Project Management, Delivery Centres, and Data Science – and of course our Research and Development Hub.

We take care of compliance and security so that you can be confident your information is secure when working with us.

We can also guide you through your tech decision making process to apply innovation to your legal operations with confidence.

We help you to complete projects faster and with improved risk management by optimising workflows and processes, using automation and advanced text analytics where appropriate.

We enable greater control and transparency by supporting our legal project management teams with pricing, budgeting and project management solutions.

We reduce costs by combining technology with lower-cost resourcing to improve the efficiency of legal service delivery. We also increase confidence by taking care of compliance and security, as well as applying our knowledge to guide you through your tech decision-making process.

From data models to application programming interfaces (APIs), we are collaborating with others in the industry to help you stay ahead of the curve.

We combine the technologies and methodologies below to deliver the best outcomes now and in the future:
