Law firms: how you work, not who you represent.
Firms build years of templates, checklists and training material. That is what labs are looking for. Client matters can be left out completely.

Questions from law firms
- Must we include matter files?
- No. The usual focus is templates, checklists and process records. Matter records are included only when your firm and its counsel decide so.
- Who determines what is privileged?
- Your firm, together with its counsel. You approve a sample before anything goes out.
- Could we begin with templates alone?
- Yes. Many firms begin with a narrow scope, such as a precedent bank or training library, and leave everything else out.
Useful records
What tends to be useful
You do not need every one. One well kept system can be enough to start a conversation.
Precedents and templates
How your lawyers structure documents and choose language for different situations.
Training and checklists
How the firm teaches people to spot issues and avoid mistakes.
Workflow records
How matters get started, staffed, followed and finished inside the firm.
Internal memos
How a change in the rules gets explained inside the firm.
Why labs want these records
A model that drafts or reviews legal documents learns most from how careful practitioners actually work: which clause gets chosen and why, what a partner corrects, how a checklist grows after a near miss. You rarely see that in public text. Your internal know-how does.

Start with the estimate. A specialist from License Your Data phones within minutes to book a 15-minute call. If you continue, License Your Data prepares a de-identified copy, you approve a sample, and buyers license the copy.
The concern we hear first
Privilege comes first
Privileged material is taken out of the copy. What can be included depends on your engagement terms and professional duties, and that is a decision for your firm and its counsel. We are not giving legal advice.
Client matters can be excluded
Internal know-how is the focus. Matter files are not required, and any client or matter can be excluded entirely. Wherever a record mentions a person or company, that name is replaced with a placeholder.
Everything starts under NDA, nothing is shared until you approve a sample, and there is no cost to you.
