Improve How Your Panel Firms Handle Case Prep
By licensing esumry and encouraging its use in your guidelines, you influence how work gets done inside your firms—without micromanaging it. Lawyers adopt tools that speed up case analysis, drafting, and deposition work, and you see the results in invoices and timelines.
Standardize Expectations Across Firms and Matters
esumry makes it easier for firms to deliver analysis, summaries, and updates in formats you recognize. You can recommend preferred structures and encourage firms to use them, which leads to more comparable reports across different matters and jurisdictions.
Reduce Pretrial Hours Without Negotiating Every Line Item
Instead of fighting over time entries, you can address the root cause—how work is done. When firms use esumry to automate repetitive tasks, fewer hours are needed to reach the same level of preparedness, and the hours that remain are easier to defend.
Get Better Visibility Through Firm-Provided Reporting
As firms build their workflows around esumry, the outputs they share with you become more structured. Over time, you can incorporate metrics like hours saved or turnaround time into how you evaluate panel performance and assign matters.
Start With a Pilot Group of Firms or Matters
You don’t have to transform your panel overnight. Many legal departments start by introducing esumry to a handful of firms or a specific case type—then expand once they see the impact on spend and cycle time.
