Competing with Robots: Why Lawyers need to Adopt Agile
The Legal Luddite
Due to the onset of legal hackathons and blogs like Lawyerist, legal professionals seems to be making progress in adopting new technologies, but for the most part these legal luddites are hanging on to the past that is quickly slipping away. Even if balky barristers begin to embrace new technologies, their current matter management processes are obsolete and are no longer relevant. Ken Grady said it best, “Lawyers are risk averse and resistant to change by personality type.”
Why Agile?
Agile software development has revolutionized the business world and will undoubtedly continue to do so in future. Artificial intelligence robots are getting smarter, and while currently software allows firms to review documents, soon they will be able to perform a variety of advanced tasks.
In a recent report, Harvard Business Review Analytic Services dubbed agile as “the competitive advantage for a digital age.” Lawyers may be able to outsmart legal robots if they can cut the inefficiencies in their current processes and automate repetitive tasks. Consumers are turning more and more toward low cost, efficient, and alternative services (Rocket Lawyer for example) and legal professionals are feeling the pressure to keep up. Agile methodologies will allow legal professionals to improve delivery time, product quality, and client satisfaction.
Agile & Kanban for Lawyers
Until now, there has been a serious dearth of legal solutions that can deliver the benefits of Agile and Kanban methodologies. Our company, Lawcus, combines all of the features of the agile software with the ability to automate legal processes and client intake through Kanban workflows.
Visualization Improves Efficiency
When users can visualize client matters, they are better able to asses each case’s needs and more efficiently drive decisions.
Minimized Delivery Time
The Kanban workflows/agility applications reduce the actual time spent between work remittance and work completion. This leads to greater efficiency and increased firm profit.
Continuous Improvement
Incorporating automated workflows into an organization allows a continuous quality of work, and improved results.
The software is eating the world, and its robots are preparing the meals. If your organization is hungry for more efficient and streamlined processes, check out Lawcus.com for more information and to receive beta access.
