Overview
The project focuses on building a custom CRM for a law firm that unifies client management, case files, and tasks into a single platform. The solution leverages AI for document processing and fast information retrieval, cutting routine work and boosting lawyer productivity.
Goals
Deliver a secure, AI-first CRM that:
- Digitizes client and case management,
- Enables automatic categorization of legal documents,
- Provides fast access to knowledge via an AI agent,
- Improves efficiency while ensuring GDPR compliance and data security.
The unified CRM simplifies operations, automates document handling, offers natural-language search, and guarantees regulatory and security standards.
Deliverables
- Production-ready custom CRM (clients, cases, tasks).
- AI module for document intake & classification (OCR, tagging, recommendations).
- Integrated AI agent for fast document & knowledge queries.
- UX-optimized interface designed for legal workflows.
- Full architecture & deployment documentation.
Tech & Capabilities
- Natural Language Processing (NLP) for legal text processing, entity extraction, classification.
- Machine Learning for case similarity and recommendations.
- Cloud-native architecture on Azure with high availability.
- Zero-trust security: MFA, encryption at rest/in transit, audit trails.
- AI agent (chat interface) supporting natural-language queries.
- Interoperability via APIs (billing, contacts/identity, DMS).
The stack combines AI, process digitization, and connected systems—exactly the transformation areas targeted by the project.
