Risk & Compliance Considerations

Small inefficiencies compound — lawyers spend hours searching for files instead of delivering legal insights.
Hidden Cost: Lawyer productivity lost
Technology Considerations
Legacy systems can’t integrate with cloud, AI, or modern business systems and require heavy IT support, patches, and infrastructure upkeep.
Hidden Cost: Higher total cost of ownership
Innovation Considerations
Old systems don’t integrate with modern tools (AI, collaboration, mobile).
Hidden Cost: Falling behind competitors who embrace digital transformation

The Hidden Costs of Outdated Legal Tech
Understanding the Gaps & How to Fix Them
November 5th, 11am PST
Your document management system (DMS) and processes might look “fine” on the surface, but slow search, manual filing, audit friction, mounting IT costs, and security gaps slowly erode the foundation on which your entire legal operation relies.
In time, those hidden costs — time, risk, and missed opportunities — can become staggering.
In this webinar, discover the true cost of outdated legal tech, why legacy systems block AI adoption and innovation, and how legal teams are modernizing before their systems fail them.
