From pilot to practice  

The decision to partner with Legora follows a rigorous competitive pilot evaluating the platform’s current features and functionality, as well as the company’s product roadmap and support resources. 

Sheppard Mullin is rolling out Legora across all practice groups and offices, enabling more than 1,200 attorneys to accelerate research and diligence, inform drafting and negotiations and analyze with precision. In parallel, the firm continues to train legal teams on responsible use of AI and specific tools, including a comprehensive AI education and adoption program. 

This firmwide initiative spans role-based learning paths, practice-specific playbooks and ongoing certification to ensure attorneys and business services professionals can confidently and responsibly leverage Legora and other AI solutions to serve clients and support the business.

Scaling impact firmwide 

“Sheppard Mullin’s innovation strategy is about leveraging machine learning and generative AI technology to change how we work, deliver more efficient service and create greater value for clients,” said Luca Salvi, Chair of Sheppard Mullin. “Working with Legora is one more step in that direction and reflects our sophisticated approach to technology and AI. We are investing not only in best-in-class technology, but also in the adoption, training and implementation of new workflows that scale impact across all practices and industry teams.”

“Our goal with all technology, especially AI, is to enable us to deliver an exceptional client experience and unprecedented value,” said Kate Cain, Chief Knowledge and Innovation Officer at Sheppard Mullin. “The greatest value comes from aligning the right solution with the right workstream, people and context. With Legora, efficiency is just the start. Attorneys can accelerate research and drafting and devote more time to judgment and strategy. We’re excited to add Legora to our AI and innovation toolkit to turn innovation into measurable client value.”
