A document package in 4 minutes instead of 40

One client service means 12–15 documents, and the same passport details used to be copied into every one of them by hand. Now the data is entered once, typed or spoken, and the whole package is built from it.

A law firm. Consumer disputes and property damage claims. Every client service produces a fixed package of documents.

Problem

Most of the work on a case was copy and paste

A client brings a passport, and a case manager retypes the same details into a power of attorney, an engagement letter, a formal claim, a statement of case and half a dozen more. Thirty to sixty minutes of mechanical work per case, done by someone hired for judgement. And a single typo in the details can surface much later, in court, when it is expensive.

Solution

Data once — documents as a package

The manager picks the type of case, fills in one screen — typed or dictated — and downloads a finished PDF package in the firm's house style. What goes into the package depends on the case: a flooding claim against a management company needs one set, a dispute with a neighbour another. The service knows those branches itself.

Under the hood

What this is built from

  • Web application inside the firm's own perimeter
  • Template engine with per-case-type branching
  • Typed or voice input
  • PDF generation in the firm's house style

What’s next. The engine outgrew the original firm: the same document machinery is being taken white-label into a second industry — vehicle rental.
