LAW FIRMS

Get Your Law Firms Data AI‑Ready

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.

Who It's For

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.

AI Assistants We Set Up

Each assistant is a Claude Project set up on your own Claude Pro account with model training off, and drafts are always reviewed by a person.

Intake & Engagement

Summarizes a completed intake form and drafts the engagement letter from the approved template for a lawyer to review

Stays out: Conflict check results, privileged case strategy

Client Updates

Drafts routine matter status updates in the firm's voice for the responsible lawyer to review

Stays out: Unreviewed legal analysis, opposing-party records

Forms & Templates Bank

Finds the right firm form or template and explains when the firm uses it

Stays out: Client files

Billing Narratives (optional)

Tidies time-entry descriptions into clear invoice language before a lawyer approves the bill

Stays out: Privileged details beyond what the invoice already shows

What Stays With You

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.
