Precedents

Your templates. Your firm’s voice. Drafted in ninety seconds.

Every letter your firm sends was written from scratch by someone who bills by the hour — or copied from the last matter and edited, which is worse.

The case for it

Why firms move

It lives where the work lives

Click Precedents on the Word or Outlook Home ribbon and the form opens beside your document. Change an answer, click Update, and the document rewrites in place.

Your templates, not ours

Upload your own precedents, or start from the LAPM library and make them sound like your firm.

Version is recorded

Every generated document carries the template version it came from, so you can prove what was current when it was sent.

Generating a document from a LAPM precedent

How it works

Three steps, ninety seconds.

  1. The form

    Every placeholder in your template becomes a question. Matter data answers most of them before you start.

  2. Generating

    A finished .docx, filed to the matter, with the template version recorded against it.

  3. In Word

    The same form sits beside your document and rewrites it in place when an answer changes.

Pricing

$125 per user / month, or included with LAPM OS. No lock-in contract.
