Prime AI Solutions helped a commercial law firm transform their contract review and due diligence processes using AI-powered document analysis. The result: faster turnaround times, improved accuracy in risk identification, and enhanced capabilities for handling complex transactions.
Commercial law firms face increasing pressure to review large volumes of contracts quickly while maintaining accuracy and identifying risks. This firm was experiencing several challenges:
Due diligence on transactions required associates to spend days or weeks reviewing hundreds of contracts, creating bottlenecks on time-sensitive deals.
Different lawyers reviewing similar contracts would sometimes identify different risks, leading to inconsistency in client advice and potential exposure.
Transaction sizes were increasing, with some M&A deals involving thousands of documents. Manual review was becoming impractical for large-scale due diligence.
Clients increasingly expected faster turnaround times and competitive pricing, putting pressure on the traditional time-based billing model.
The firm needed a solution that could handle volume while improving consistency and accuracy, without compromising on the quality of legal analysis.
Prime AI Solutions implemented an AI contract review and due diligence platform tailored to the firm's specific needs and practice areas.
The AI system analyses contracts to identify key clauses, obligations, rights, and risks. It extracts critical information and presents it in a structured format for lawyer review.
Contracts are automatically scored based on risk criteria defined by the firm. High-risk clauses are flagged for immediate attention, while standard terms can be approved quickly.
For M&A transactions, the system can process thousands of documents rapidly, identifying material contracts, change of control provisions, assignment restrictions, and other deal-critical terms.
The system was trained on the firm's playbooks, preferred positions, and risk appetite. It learns the firm's approach and applies it consistently across all reviews.
The AI implementation delivered measurable improvements across the firm's contract review and due diligence practices:
Contract reviews that previously took days now complete in hours. Due diligence exercises that took weeks can be substantially accelerated, meeting tight transaction deadlines.
AI-powered analysis catches risks and issues that might be missed in manual review, particularly in large-volume exercises. Consistency across reviews has improved significantly.
The firm can now handle larger transactions and higher contract volumes without proportionally increasing headcount. Associates spend more time on high-value analysis rather than initial document review.
Faster turnaround and more comprehensive risk identification have improved client relationships. The firm can offer competitive pricing while maintaining quality and profitability.
