The Private Standard
For boutique law practices

Law Firms

Client intake and conflicts, document automation, and a private AI assistant trained on the firm's own work product.

The thesis

Partner-led firms break the day the partner stops having time to practice law. The work moves to associates. The judgment is delegated. The firm loses what made it worth hiring. We build and install the systems that give the partner back the hours that matter, without putting client confidence at risk.

Signals

When the firm
is ready for The Private Standard.

  • 01

    The partner is still drafting first-pass intake memos at 9pm.

  • 02

    Conflict checks and engagement letters take a full day per matter.

  • 03

    Associate time is spent assembling documents the firm cannot bill at market.

  • 04

    Knowledge from one matter dies the moment the matter closes.

What we install

The systems.

  • Matter intake and conflicts

    Structured intake, automated conflict checks, and draft engagement letters ready in minutes, with every request triaged and tracked to an owner.

  • Document automation

    Motions, memos, and correspondence assembled from the firm's own templates and precedent, so a first draft is waiting when the partner sits down.

  • Private knowledge assistant

    An AI assistant trained on the firm's closed matters and work product, with zero-retention model access and attorney review before anything leaves the building. Precedent becomes a search, not a memory.

  • Client portal and e-signature

    A secure client portal with document exchange, native e-signature, and an audit trail. Multi-factor access, built to hold up to a client's scrutiny.

Commissions

Two engagements
without a Diagnostic.

Fixed scope, published fee. Here is how each reads for Law Firms.

A firm holds privileged material on behalf of people who cannot verify how it is held. Custody is not an IT question here. It is a professional obligation.

  • The firm's mail runs on an address nobody at the firm administers.
  • A departing associate's access ends with a password change and a hope.
  • Client correspondence and forged correspondence look identical in a client's inbox.

A prospective client chooses counsel before speaking to anyone. The site is the only evidence they have.

  • The firm's site cannot be told apart from any other firm's site.
  • Prospective clients cannot verify standing without writing to ask.
  • Intake arrives as unstructured mail to a personal address.
