Solutions Prototyping Consultancy

Using our proven technology and our unique prototyping model you can, within four weeks of commencement, demonstrate to your legal and business stakeholders a working end-to-end solution that will support you as you evolve your legal operating model. A live prototype, configured to your organisation, covering instruction management, triage, case management, document creation plus activity, quality and risk reporting visualisations. A proof-of-concept accessible via your desktop, laptop, tablet or mobile.

With a dedicated prototyping team combining lawyers, automation experts, data analysts, facilitators and project managers we work with your team to deliver ten outputs (see diagram below). After four weeks you and your team will have a good feel for the ‘art-of-the-possible’. A clearer understanding as to how technology, workflow automation, reporting and data visualisations can help make your function more effective and efficient on a sustainable basis. It will help shape the model that ensures that legal work is undertaken, whether in-house or by external providers, by the right people, in the right place, in the right way, at the right time and at the right price.

You can use these ten deliverables to either continue working with us or to take the recommendations and implement them yourselves and/or use an alternative provider.

Riverview Law is a technology-led business with deep legal domain expertise. It is this combination of legal knowledge, business insight, technology and R&D that provides us with what we believe is a unique ability to assist you as you evolve your legal operating model. Most businesses are, or are becoming, technology-led. Riverview Law is no exception to this. On its own being a technology-led business, from automation and visualisations through to Artificial Intelligence, is of limited value without domain expertise. Riverview Law has deep legal domain expertise and handles thousands of matters pa for global corporations, mid-sized and fast growing businesses.

Easy to use dashboards and analytics that help you make better and quicker decisions.

One of the key themes that differentiates Riverview Law is the way it uses dashboards, management information, analytics and visualisations to help in-house legal and related teams to make better and quicker decisions, manage risk, reduce cost and evolve their operating models. The power of these easy to create dashboards should not be underestimated. Whether they are used by individual lawyers, team leaders, Heads of Legal or General Counsel they help tell actionable stories that improve performance.

Automated data capture that frees the function to deliver support to the business

To deliver real-time analytics and visualisations that are easy to use and that tell a story that can actioned, you first need to capture accurate, relevant and timely data. Accurate data-capture used to be big stumbling block; it was cumbersome, time consuming and inconsistent. This is why we built our end-to-end workflow platform which automates data capture. Whatever the area (contracts, risk management, litigation, property, employment …), whatever the process (from instruction management, through triage, case management and document creation), we’ve made it simple.

If you can use Microsoft Office you can use our tools and technology now

It is often thought that it is really difficult and time consuming to create workflows and analytics, to capture data and management information. That’s why we built our platform so that it can be used and configured by any individual who has Microsoft Office IT skills. All the individuals in this video are lawyers or client managers. None are IT developers or programmers. Our colleagues were surprised by what they could do, quickly. The race is on to provide easy to use software, tools and virtual assistants that help us all do better jobs!

Is it easy for in-house teams, lawyers, paralegals and project managers to use and maintain the platform?

The Riverview Law In-house modules are easy to use for a lawyer, paralegal or legal assistant because they have been built from the user up and not from the IT developer down. They have been built so that they can be set-up, maintained and evolved by Super-Users who are not IT professionals or developers. The key philosophy underpinning the Riverview Law software development model is the emphasis on configuration rather than coding, an emphasis which enables a quick and effective response to trends or regulatory or other change.

Using management information and trend data to reduce cost and pre-empt risk

Pretty quickly in a new managed service contract the focus moves from quality, because it's good, to how we can help our customers use the management information (MI) and trend data we generate to provide them with business insight. This is not just activity and volumetric data which tells you what is happening, how much of it is happening and what the trends are. It is MI and data that goes to the root cause of issues and then helps pre-empt them, improve operational performance, reduce future risk and lower costs.

Our Moments of Truth programme

You can have the best people, processes and systems in the world but the key is the culture underpinning this. Our culture is driven by Moments of Truth, a concept that is easy to understand both internally and externally and by all other Riverview Law stakeholders. Moments of Truth ensures that we all have responsibility for making sure that our customers, team members and other stakeholders are delighted every time they interact with us.
