Overview

If they don't already have Lawcloud, they should seriously consider it.

Software that's always there

At Studio Legale, the decision to adopt a new software solution wasn't a strategic project, but a necessity. Our previous software, despite having a strong market share, had simply become too unstable and unreliable. For an ambitious law firm, that was a no-go.

We ended up with Lawcloud partly by coincidence and partly through persistence. Lawcloud had contacted us before. We saw the added value, but always postponed making the switch. In the end, persistence paid off.

A smooth transition

A migration always brings uncertainties, and that was true for us as well. Still, the transition went smoothly thanks to the structured project approach of the Lawcloud team and our own internal colleagues who drove the project, especially Laurie Peer.

End users adapted quickly. For people who have worked the same way for a long time, every change requires some adjustment, but that's part of any transition process. Overall, the migration felt controlled and predictable.

A partner, not a supplier

What really makes the difference for us is that Lawcloud doesn't feel like a software supplier, but like a true partner.

Their accessibility, willingness to think along with the way we work, and their presence at our latest academy are all examples of the involvement that is highly appreciated within our firm.

What gives us confidence for the long term is seeing that active investments are being made in both the product and the relationship.

Adoption and impact

The adoption among our employees has gone well.

The Review Queue is a particularly useful tool, and we see colleagues collaborating with it very naturally.

Cases are followed up more effectively because different stakeholders can work together more smoothly, and duplicate email communication has been significantly reduced.

We deliberately chose a phased implementation, so there is still room to expand. For a firm with growth ambitions, that's exactly the strength of the platform: it grows together with us.

A growing ecosystem

We experience the platform's performance as very good. The Review Queue and the workflows really stand out for us. What appeals to us most, however, is the ecosystem approach: the seamless integration with partner tools. Lawcloud is at the heart of how we work, also as the starting point for other tools. That's not a vision for the future—it's the direction we're already consciously taking today.

Ready for what's next

Our previous platform did what it was supposed to do, but the downtime was unacceptable. That problem has disappeared. We would certainly recommend Lawcloud to other law firms, both large and small. For us, the key to success lies in consistently building on the ecosystem concept. We want to be early adopters of new features and continue building on what we already have today. An ambitious law firm that wants to remain future-ready consciously chooses a platform that grows alongside them.
