How AI tools help legal teams stay responsive and informed under tight deadlines
Highlights
- Generative AI accelerates legal workflows by assisting with time-consuming tasks like summarizing large document bundles or legislative schemes, enabling faster initial analysis without replacing the need for detailed human scrutiny.
- By rapidly producing AI-driven summaries or detailed chronologies from complex evidence, legal professionals can gain immediate insights, prepare for urgent meetings with confidence, and provide timely, informed responses from the outset.
- Tools like CoCounsel Core empower legal teams to be more responsive by securely extracting key data from documents to perform critical functions such as summarization, chronology building, and document comparison, ultimately accelerating practice efficiency.
These tools can also provide lawyers with summaries of specified documents or legislative schemes, even if they lack prior knowledge — and it can complete this far more quickly than a lawyer could manually browse through a legal knowledge database.
Imagine receiving a bundle of evidence you need to discuss in a client meeting or with a legal team member very shortly. Even if only in high-level terms, with the understanding that your detailed review is underway and the full report will be delivered in due time, completing this accurately and well might be near impossible.
However, an AI-driven summary of the bundle’s contents can prepare you to have an informed and valuable initial conversation, even on short notice. By providing early indications into the nature of the evidence and its potential impact on arguments, AI equips you with the knowledge to engage confidently and effectively from the outset.
Another way of surfacing the information within large or complex documents is by using an AI tool to produce a detailed chronology. This swiftly lets you see the lay of the land in a document set, either of historical or future dates. It also empowers the user to provide timely information to clients as required.
Having the tools to be responsive and informed can be an asset in these circumstances. CoCounsel Core gives your legal team the ability to extract useful data from your documents while maintaining security: summarizing, building chronologies, searching databases, and comparing documents.
