Even experienced lawyers miss critical clauses when the clock is running. ⏲️ Not because they don't know better, but because time pressure and inconsistent tools make it easy for risky language to look standard.

When contracts arrive late and legal is expected to review quickly across multiple matters, even experienced lawyers rely on pattern recognition – and that's where small but significant variations in language slip through. 🕵️ Neil Smith (Legal Transformation at LawVu) explains where contract risk hides, why experience-driven intuition has blind spots, and how structuring the review process reduces variability more than effort alone ever can. 📖 Read the full article in Today's General Counsel: https://lnkd.in/ejS4NinJ #ContractDrafting #ContractReview #InhouseLegal #LegalTech

The day before Legal Leaders Connect in London, we had the privilege of spending a full day with our Northern Hemisphere Customer Advisory Board. An honest, high-trust deep dive into where legal is heading next. One theme came through loudly: legal is having a moment. Generative AI has shifted the conversation from “incremental efficiency” to “fundamentally rethinking how legal work gets done” and what the operating model needs to look like in a world that’s moving quickly toward agentic capability. We spent a lot of time on agentic AI, not as hype, but as an execution layer that can help legal move from managing work to actively executing it (with the right controls and guardrails). And we pressure-tested what we believe is the real opportunity: LawVu evolving into a LegalOS, an operating system purpose-built for in-house legal, grounded in the proprietary workflow + matter + contract data that only a legal platform can accumulate over time. The most exciting part of the discussion was the “front door” shift happening across organisations: business users increasingly start with tools like Microsoft Copilot or Claude, and the question becomes how legal ensures those interactions are connected to the right systems, the right data, and the right workflows. That’s where Legal OS matters, it’s the layer that turns AI from a chat experience into governed work, structured intake, orchestrated workflows, and visibility for legal (and the business) at scale. Huge thanks to everyone who leaned in with candour and ambition. Days like this are why we invest so heavily in community, because the future is built in rooms like these. #LegalLeaders #CustomerAdvisoryBoard #LegalOps #LegalTech #AgenticAI #AI #InHouseLegal #LegalInnovation

The future of in-house legal is not about incremental improvement. It's about repositioning the function within the enterprise – from a reactive advisor to an embedded, operational partner that helps the business navigate complexity, move faster, and deliver outcomes. Our new Future of In-House Legal series explores this transformation, bringing together perspectives from those leading the change: ✨ Bjarne Philip Tellmann (CEO, FjordStream Advisors) ✨ Lisa Mather (Head of Legal, Fetch 🐾) ✨ Mark A. Smolik (CLO, DHL Supply Chain Americas) ✨ Paula Pépin (CEO, The GC Collective) ✨ Sterling Miller (COO, GC, and Senior Counsel at Hilgers PLLC) ✨ Bill Deckelman (CLO, Andersen) Explore the series: https://lnkd.in/ePcdFYnt #LegalLeadership #InHouseLegal #LegalTech #GeneralCounsel

We were proud sponsors of Workgroup Legal in Leeds last week – a day of discussion groups run by GCs, for GCs. Neil Smith and Keilan Tuffy from LawVu headed along, with Neil moderating a panel on the role of AI and how to ensure it's solving the right problems for your legal team. Thank you to Kristel Graham, Neil B., and Veronica Shackleton for sharing your insights, and to everyone who engaged! Beyond the sessions, it was a brilliant opportunity to catch up with a few LawVu customers and connect with new people too. 🙌

SPONSORED BY LawVu: "Legal is a bottleneck." We’ve all heard it. But expecting flawless contract reviews at the 11th hour is a losing battle. The ideal sequence: Commercial terms are agreed, legal reviews, and the contract is signed. The actual reality: Contracts arrive late, timelines are already locked, and legal is juggling a dozen "urgent" deals at once. When things get missed, it’s rarely a lack of skill. It’s the immense, systemic pressure of a broken sequence. If you’re a general counsel looking to improve your team’s consistency, don’t push for longer hours. Fix the dynamic. Move legal upstream in the deal cycle. Learn how: https://bit.ly/42DySg6
