The AI Agent Agent · Los Angeles

How do law firms actually use AI?

The firms getting real value use AI where the grunt work lives: client intake, first-draft documents an attorney reviews, research summaries, and routine client communication. The wins come from mapping specific workflows, not from buying a subscription and hoping.

Where it earns its keep

• Intake: structuring what a prospective client sends before a human reads it
• First drafts: routine documents drafted for attorney review, never sent unreviewed
• Summaries: long records, transcripts, and correspondence condensed for the person who decides
• Client communication: status updates and routine responses drafted, then approved

Where it doesn't belong

Anything filed or sent without professional review. The lawyer stays the lawyer. AI removes the grunt work around judgment; it doesn't replace the judgment.

Tool first or map first?

Map first. A tool bought before the map becomes another subscription nobody opens. The map tells you which tool matters, for which task, and who reviews the output. That's the whole point of the AI Kickoff.

Why firms work with me

My clients have spanned law, finance, insurance, and beauty. Partners don't have time to test every tool; they want an AI edge and one person accountable for turning it into real results.
