The Law Firm Pack is how Small Biz Data works with small law firms. It leans hardest on an AI-use policy and tool approval, because client confidentiality decides what a firm can put into any AI tool.
Roughly 2–30 lawyers in practices such as estate planning, family, business, real estate, personal injury and employment. Their data sits across a practice management system, document storage, intake forms, e-signature and the books.

Small Biz Data organizes and connects the firm's data. It does not give legal or legal-ethics advice. Trust (IOLTA) accounting stays in the firm's own process and is never put into an AI tool, conflict checks stay in the practice management system, and each AI tool is approved under the firm's own professional-responsibility rules before anyone uses it.
