Transforming what matters - When legal teams recognise the need for change, but don’t know where to start, NewLaw helps to baseline your current state and prioritise your transformation agenda. Starting with a diagnostic of your legal function across people and external counsel, process and technology, and benchmarking against industry peers and global best practices, we co-develop your strategy and transformation roadmap. Leveraging our extensive experience, we can also help you implement these recommendations - including scoping, delivery and change management. Our approach is the subject of a Harvard case study on client-centred legal innovation.

In this fast changing, tech-enabled world, our highly experienced NewLaw team of lawyers and legal sector professionals are helping clients build a sustainable legal department that delivers real value to the business. One of the ways we can help is through our NewLaw document automation offering.

What is document automation?

Put simply, document automation eliminates the need for manual document creation processes, like drafting, and is replaced by the user answering a simple questionnaire that formats responses into a final document. Our NewLaw document automation team uses software to digitise and automate the production of legal documents resulting in the user being able to quickly and simply produce valuable, uniform and personalised documents with very minimal effort. 

What are the benefits of document automation?

There are many benefits of automation. These include:

Speed: Through the use of intelligent, interactive templates, documents such as commercial agreements, offer letters and employment contracts take only a few minutes to produce. Both individual as well as suites of documents can be created concurrently based on the same answers.

Consistency: Automating reduces the likelihood of inaccuracies or errors and maintains a consistent level of quality as users will return to the same template to generate their documents. Additionally, automated templates can be easily maintained and kept up to date.

Productivity: By reducing inefficiencies and effort needed, users will have more time to focus on higher value tasks. This, in turn, also contributes to an improvement in stakeholder satisfaction and an ability to contribute to the growth of the business.

What can be automated?

Our document automation team has automated a wide range of documents including non-disclosure agreements, vendor agreements, share purchase agreements, employment contracts, legal opinions, settlement agreements, IP documents, service agreements and many more.

Our bilingual team can automate your documents in Arabic, English or both languages.
