Litera: Managing matters where you work
What This Session Is About
Enterprise law firms are spending record amounts on AI, yet most cannot prove what it returns. This 45-minute session shows how running every matter on one connected, Microsoft-native foundation stops that return from leaking between disconnected tools and gives leadership the visibility they lack today: where time is going, which matters carry risk, and where the next investment should sit. It also converts the time AI saves into client trust and new business.
Why This Matters Now
Your lawyers work about 49 hours a week and bill for 37. Much of that gap is not legal work. It is the work around the work: chasing status, re-keying data, and rebuilding a matter’s history from email threads. COOs now rank technology investment as their top strategic priority for the first time in five years, and practice management improvement ranks third. But two-thirds of firms do not measure what their AI actually saves. Speed poured onto a disconnected foundation drains before it reaches the client, and the return you have to defend never arrives.
