Law Firms

What’s the biggest fact of life today for attorneys in private practice?

Competition. Competition to get the client. Competition to provide the most effective—and cost effective—legal services. Competition with opposing counsel, to win the case or close a favorable deal for your client. Competition to build and sustain a successful career.

How can you increase your odds of winning in such a competitive environment?

Lawyers have traditionally competed by combining two key skills: legal research and reasoning. But now there’s a third leg to the law practice stool. Legal Analytics enables lawyers to gain critical advantage in the business and practice of law. With data driven insight Lex Machina enables law firms to pitch and land new clients and win lawsuits.
