About Legal Data Intelligence
Industry leaders from some of the world’s largest companies, law firms, and service providers have joined together to help legal teams bring more value to their organizations through the power of data analysis. The culmination of their efforts is Legal Data Intelligence.
What is Legal Data Intelligence?
Legal Data Intelligence empowers the legal industry with a vocabulary, framework, and best practices to manage legal data, and ultimately accelerates the dispensation of legal advice and the pursuit of justice.
With this new way of thinking, Legal Data Intelligence practitioners can leverage their legal backgrounds and technology fluency to bring insights to light and tackle legal projects that have historically been too data-intensive to execute.
Legal Data Intelligence empowers you to articulate the value you bring to the table, expand the scope of your role, and reinvent yourself to elevate your career.
A New Paradigm to Solve Legal’s Data Quandaries
We've left the paper era. Not long ago, data was finite. It lived in briefcases and file cabinets, skimmed through only by the hands of legal professionals. Then, the birth of the internet brought with it an inconceivable number of emails, spreadsheets, and chats, opening a floodgate of data challenges. Subsequently, the modern world took a leap. As data volumes surged, we normalized our lives online, welcoming an era of remote work, AI, and digital footprints.
Today, most data is rotten. Regardless of the specific nature of the legal task, every legal data challenge is generally the same: the majority of data is Redundant, Obsolete, and Trivial (ROT), but a legal professional is interested in finding data that is Sensitive, Useful, and Necessary (SUN).
The blueprint needs rewriting. Just as legal data challenges aren’t defined by a single type of work or practice area, solving these challenges is not defined by a single skillset. Separating the SUN from the ROT requires a combination of skills: legal expertise, strong data orientation, operational excellence, and a deep understanding of technology. Legal professionals need to be multidimensional, adaptive, and forward-thinking.
Let the SUN shine through. The Legal Data Intelligence model covers the processes and best practices for use cases in disputes and investigations, corporate, data protection compliance, and the business of law. The processes represented by the Legal Data Intelligence model enable the SUN data to shine through, illuminating the information so it can be confidently transformed by legal professionals into new levels of intelligence.
