Neota Logic, provider of a leading expert system software platform for the automation of expertise and business processes, today announced they will provide the technology to power the new Akerman Data Law Center, a dynamic, technology-driven, data privacy and security law service offering for corporate counsel and compliance officers. 

The online product built on the Neota Logic platform will deliver fact-driven advice on data privacy and breach notification requirements to corporate compliance officers. The content consists of comprehensive legal research on U.S. state and federal regulations, as well as ongoing updates and regulatory analyses of data privacy and breach reporting requirements. 

Neota’s technology allows Akerman to provide a highly efficient solution for data law compliance that can reduce legal fees by more than 80 percent as compared with traditional hourly rate services. This is achieved by combining Akerman's legal knowledge and analysis with Neota Logic’s AI analysis of the specific questions being asked. 

“We are pleased to partner with Akerman in the deployment of this ground breaking legal information tool, which will transform the way companies manage their data law risks and compliance obligations,” said Matt Gillis, president of Neota Logic. “Using the Neota platform, the Akerman Data Law Center will empower in-house legal and compliance departments to quickly and cost-effectively understand everyday compliance matters.”

Akerman, a top 100 U.S. law firm serving clients across the Americas, developed this first-of-its-kind legal service offering in collaboration with Thomson Reuters Legal Managed Services. Akerman’s renowned team of skilled lawyers provided high-value analysis and legal advice on the key data privacy and security issues confronting enterprises every day. Neota Logic’s innovative technology platform then leverages the power of artificial intelligence to deliver legal insights from Akerman’s attorneys in a cost-efficient way.

“The Akerman Data Law Center utilizes Neota Logic's advanced technology platform to interpret and operationalize Akerman's legal knowledge, to answer questions where answers exist, and guide clients to counsel where counsel is needed,” said Jeffrey Sharer, co-chair of the Data Law Practice at Akerman LLP. “Thanks to this sophisticated technology, clients can locate and synthesize complex information instantaneously, which will allow them to identify and mitigate risks before they become crises.”
