Filevine’s Future Is Supercharged With AI, Transforming How Attorneys Work
Filevine leverages the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline the legal process from client intake to billing.
The concept that information grows in a case, like how leaves grow on a vine, is the source of the name Filevine. Filevine’s leaves centralize documents, tasks, emails, and more, relieving users of the need to remove these leaves from multiple places and apps. Attorneys and paralegals easily collaborate within the firm with Filevine’s one platform, which gives them access to all their leaves in one location.
Filevine leverages the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline the legal process from client intake to billing. The platform offers several AI-powered features that automate tasks, free up lawyers to focus on more important activities, and transform how lawyers work.
Lead Docket
Lead Docket is an efficient lead intake management solution with automatic processes to guarantee each lead is promptly followed up, and tasks are clearly defined. It also helps manage and retain leads. LeadsAI, developed by Filevine, allows teams to manage leads from any marketing source in one location easily. It features lead summaries and predictive analysis to streamline and accelerate legal intake and lead management. The AI-powered function creates a well-written synopsis of all data entered in a lead intake form, empowering intake teams to make judgments more quickly and efficiently. Additionally, LeadsAI predictive analysis for MVA (motor vehicle accident) helps determine whether a new lead should be signed, directed out, or rejected, eliminating guesswork in case qualification. An AI-powered fee prediction for possible scenarios provides vital information in determining whether a case would benefit the firm.
Workflows and Activity Feeds
A firm can customize workflows inside Filevine to follow its procedures for every stage of a project or case, ensuring no processes are overlooked. Filevine can use each job to start a workflow’s subsequent task. For instance, an engagement letter is generated and made available for the user to edit as soon as the prospective client is accepted. Filevine’s automation feature presents the subsequent task in the workflow as each step or task is completed, taking into account the outcomes of the previous action.
Filevine tracks every action in a project in the activity feed. Team members can communicate through comments and records and follow details such as who completed an activity and when. Having all this information in one location facilitates information sharing and makes it simple to stay informed about a case. The communications, tasks, and documents in a case (the leaves) appear in the feed as they are created. Additionally, users have access to SidebarAI for additional information and insight.
SidebarAI
SidebarAI is an AI-powered chatbot designed to facilitate communication and help users navigate the Filevine platform successfully and quickly. It can offer advice, condense situations, and instantly respond to “how-to” queries. SidebarAI can present summaries of every case, topic, or project’s activities during the previous seven days. To utilize SidebarAI, click the message symbol in the upper right corner of the screen, then click SidebarAI to initiate a new message conversation. Type your query into the text field and select Send; SidebarAI will look through the Help Center and provide the pertinent details in its response. See Figure 1.
Figure 1: Users will find they spend a lot of time on the Activity Feed, including SidebarAI, which contains key case information. The center panel displays the key communications among team members as well as the client. On the right side of the screen, the powerful SidebarAI is displayed, providing users with assistance for their case.
In addition to SidebarAI, Filevine has introduced AIFields, which uses the power of artificial intelligence to extract and organize information from documents. It mines various information and can generate summaries from the case file based on a list of analysis types. The extracted information in AIFields can be pulled into reports or referenced in generated documents, just as other fields can. Use AIFields to summarize cases, provide tips, list potential inconsistencies or falsehoods in deposition testimony– including the page of the text and line, and create a chronological list of pain scores from a medical record. See Figure 2.
Figure 2: AIFields can show inconsistencies in documents and depositions, highlighting areas needing attention for a case. The example above shows discrepancies between a witness statement and an accident reconstruction. This process takes mere minutes compared to hours of a team member’s time culling through documents.
ImmigrationAI
ImmigrationAI is designed to streamline the immigration process by automating tasks, reducing typical errors, and ensuring accuracy. ImmigrationAI scans and obtains key details from client documents, compiles crucial information, assists in completing USCIS forms, and tracks a client’s form completion progress. To use ImmigrationAI, simply upload client documents to the platform, and the tool automatically scans and extracts the necessary information. This feature is especially useful for businesses, individuals, and families who need to be sponsored or immigrate to the United States. See Figure 3.
