Shipman & Goodwin
Harvey for litigation preparation and transactional document review
Shipman & Goodwin's regular Harvey users reported saving more than 10 hours per week
Problem
Repetitive document work consumed lawyers' time across multiple matters. The firm wanted to reduce preparation work while maintaining client service.
Approach
The firm's AI committee evaluated roughly 10 tools before selecting Harvey. Lawyers used it to rebuild deposition outlines and analyze closing documents. A partner also built a custom agent for recurring NDA review.
Results
Takeaway
The weekly savings were self-reported by regular users. Individual document-review examples did not establish a firmwide average turnaround time.
