What we deliver

AI for Law Firms and Legal Teams: what is included

Our AI solutions for law firms help partners, associates and in-house legal teams review contracts faster, extract clauses into structured data, handle matter intake and search the firm's own precedents and know-how.

01

Contract review assistance

The assistant compares an incoming contract against your playbook and standard positions, highlights deviations in liability, indemnity, termination and governing law, and drafts suggested redlines with explanations. A lawyer reviews every suggestion and signs off; nothing is sent to the other side automatically.

02

Clause extraction to data

For due diligence or portfolio reviews, document AI extracts parties, term, renewal, change of control, assignment, exclusivity and payment clauses from hundreds of agreements into a spreadsheet or matter system, with the source page linked so associates can verify each entry quickly.

03

Matter intake and conflicts prep

Prospective clients complete an intake form or chat; the assistant captures parties, matter type, deadlines and documents, drafts a summary for the fee earner, and prepares the names list for your conflicts check. Engagement letters can be generated and sent for signature in Zoho Sign.

04

Research over firm knowledge

A retrieval assistant searches your precedents, opinions, practice notes and past advice and answers with citations to the firm's own documents. It does not browse public sources unless you choose, and access follows matter permissions so ethical walls are respected.

05

First drafts from precedents

Associates request a first draft of a standard document, such as an NDA, board resolution or employment letter, and the assistant builds it from your approved precedent and matter facts. Drafts are marked as unreviewed until a lawyer approves them.

06

Confidentiality and privilege controls

Deployments use enterprise model endpoints with no training on your data, in-region hosting, encryption, matter-level access control and full audit logs. We document where data goes so your risk and compliance partner can approve the design.

Real product screens

The systems it plugs into

Real screens from the platforms we work with. Yours are configured to your entities, processes and KPIs.

Across markets

How AI for Law Firms and Legal Teams changes by market

Tax, e-invoicing, data protection and language rules differ by country. We confirm the current position for each market at scoping.

Different laws, different playbooks

A contract governed by English law, UAE onshore or DIFC law, Saudi law or Indian law needs a different playbook. Assistants are set up per jurisdiction, and lawyers qualified there confirm the positions.

Arabic and bilingual contracts

Gulf contracts are often bilingual Arabic and English, with one version prevailing. The assistant can compare the two language versions and flag inconsistencies, with Arabic right-to-left display in the review screen.

Data protection and residency

Client data falls under GDPR and UK GDPR, UAE PDPL or India's DPDP Act. We host in-region on Azure, AWS or Zoho data centres, including Saudi Arabia and the UAE, to match client expectations.

How it works

How we deliver AI for Law Firms and Legal Teams

Phases, indicative timing and what is delivered in each. Scope is fixed and quoted before we start.

1Week 1

Practice and risk workshop

Agree use cases with partners and risk, set confidentiality rules, and choose which practice area goes first.

2Weeks 2-3

Knowledge preparation

Select and tag precedents, playbooks and templates; remove outdated documents and map access permissions by matter.

3Weeks 3-6

Assistant build

Build review, extraction or research assistant in your environment, with citation display and lawyer approval steps.

4Weeks 6-7

Lawyer evaluation

Associates test on closed matters; we measure missed clauses and wrong citations and tune until the team is satisfied.

5Week 8 onwards

Rollout and governance

Launch to the practice group with a usage policy, training session and monthly review of logs and accuracy.

When AI for Law Firms and Legal Teams is the wrong answer

AI is a poor fit for novel, high-stakes legal questions where there are no precedents to draw on, and it must never give legal advice to clients without a lawyer in between. If your precedents are scattered across personal drives and email, organising a document management system first will give the AI something reliable to work from.

How we handle it: We implement Zoho, Odoo and Dynamics 365 and build AI and custom software, so our written recommendation can point you to a simpler option, or to doing nothing yet.

FAQ

AI for Law Firms and Legal Teams: questions we get asked

What are AI solutions for law firms used for?
Mainly contract review against a playbook, clause extraction for due diligence, matter intake, drafting from precedents and searching the firm's own knowledge. In each case the AI prepares or finds and a lawyer checks and decides. It speeds up the reading and first-draft work that takes up associates' time.
Is client confidentiality and privilege protected?
We build on enterprise model endpoints that do not train on your data, host in your chosen region, encrypt documents, enforce matter-level permissions and log every query. Nothing is shared with other clients. Your risk partner reviews the data flow, and we can keep particularly sensitive matters out of scope entirely.
Can AI review contracts without a lawyer?
No. The assistant flags deviations from your playbook and suggests redlines, but a lawyer reviews and approves every change. AI can miss context, misread unusual drafting or apply the wrong standard position, so we design the workflow so its output is always a draft for a qualified person.
How do you stop the AI inventing case law?
The research assistant answers only from documents in your firm's library and shows the source for every statement. If it cannot find support, it says so instead of guessing. We test this on an evaluation set and track citation accuracy after launch. It is not a substitute for a legal research database.
Does legal AI work with Arabic contracts?
Yes. Current models read and write Arabic, and the review screen supports right-to-left text. For bilingual contracts, the assistant compares the Arabic and English versions and flags differences. An Arabic-qualified lawyer should still confirm anything the assistant marks as a material inconsistency.
How much does AI for a law firm cost?
We give a fixed quote after a free discovery call, based on the use case, document volume and hosting choice. Model usage and cloud hosting are billed by the vendor. Firms usually start with one practice group and one workflow, such as NDA review, before extending.
Why choose Shyphan?
We are a Zoho Premium Partner, an Official Odoo Partner and an independent Dynamics 365 consultancy that also builds AI and custom software, so we recommend by fit rather than by what we resell. We are headquartered in Noida, India, with seven offices and remote delivery worldwide.
