Book a Diagnostic — LegalEngineers.ai
Start with the Legal Engineering Diagnostic — a paid, fixed-fee onsite workflow audit that maps your AI opportunity, baselines your KPIs, and proposes a build roadmap. Credited to your engagement if you proceed.
What is a legal engineer, and why not just hire a consultant?
A legal engineer is a software engineer who works embedded inside your firm, building and operating AI workflows in your existing Microsoft 365 and document management stack. Unlike a consultant, the deliverable is a working system your lawyers use daily — not a slide deck recommending one. Every engagement is scoped to a measured operational outcome.
How is client confidentiality protected during an engagement?
We sign NDAs before the first scoping call. Every MSA includes a no-train clause — client data is never used to train models. Engagements run inside your tenant with least-privilege access, matter permissions mirrored from your DMS, and audit logging on all data access. This is consistent with the confidentiality analysis in ABA Formal Opinion 512.
Does working with legal engineers create governance or ethics risk?
It reduces it. Ungoverned AI use — lawyers pasting client text into consumer chatbots — is the real risk. We build inside your firm's governance framework: approved tools, tiered human review, logging, and testing before anything reaches attorneys. Legal engineers build and operate tools; licensed attorneys make all legal judgments, keeping the work cleanly on the right side of the UPL line.
How disruptive is implementation to a busy practice?
The Diagnostic requires a handful of interviews over two to three weeks — no system changes. Builds happen inside tools your lawyers already use, so there is no platform migration and no new login. Pilots start with a small group and expand only when measured quality holds, so the practice never bets on an unproven workflow.
What does the Diagnostic cost, and what do we get?
A fixed fee based on firm size — see the pricing page for ranges. You get a mapped AI opportunity across your workflows, baseline KPIs, and a prioritized build roadmap. The fee is credited to your build engagement if you proceed within 60 days, so the Diagnostic is free in practice for firms that move forward.
