Womble Carlyle today announced immediate deployment of Kira’s artificial intelligence (AI) software for document review and analysis. Kira’s technology amplifies the skills and service already provided by Womble Carlyle attorneys.
“Kira will help us deliver the best of our talents at a scale impossible without technology assistance,” said Keith Mendelson, leader of Womble Carlyle’s Corporate & Securities Practice Group, which will be the firm’s first adopter of the Kira software.
Attorneys use the cloud-based AI software to more efficiently manage their contract review and workflow. It improves the speed and accuracy of contract review by automatically identifying and extracting important information from contracts using machine-learning models. Kira’s powerful search and analysis tools allow Womble Carlyle attorneys to spot issues and trends across documents.
More importantly, Kira provides value to Womble Carlyle clients. A Kira contract review saves 20-60 percent of the time spent on a conventional contract review, freeing up attorneys to focus on higher value client work, while maintaining Womble Carlyle’s high standards for client service.
“We’ve invested in Kira on behalf of our clients,” said Bill Koch, Womble Carlyle’s Chief Knowledge Officer. “Kira’s innovative tools will help us deliver even more efficient and accurate service to our clients.”
“Womble Carlyle’s focus on offering superior legal services for clients is well known.” said Noah Waisberg, CEO and co-founder of Kira Systems. “We are excited to be working with them to support their growth and helping to amplify their distinctive brand with the use of Kira.”
Leveraging innovative technology has always been at the forefront of Womble Carlyle’s commitment to client service. The adoption of Kira follows the firm’s investment in 2016 in Ross Intelligence, another AI platform. These efforts are spearheaded by the Innovation Board. Created in 2016, this is a team of attorneys and staff members charged with inspiring, leading and modeling a culture of innovation at the firm.
