A note from the firm

We didn't build another assistant.
We built a colleague who has read every case before you walked into the room.

Legal work has never been about throughput. It is about being the most prepared person at the table. Mike doesn't race to an answer — it organizes the record, surfaces the controlling authority, and hands the judgment back to you.

The work that matters happens between minds, on paper, on the record. Everything else — the triage, the sifting, the reconciling — should disappear into the background. That is the workspace.

The Practice

Built for the work that matters.

01 / 04

I. RESEARCH

Authority you can cite, not just summaries.

Mike reads every brief, ruling and motion in your matter — then returns answers grounded in the controlling case, not a paraphrase of it.

Jurisdiction-specific reasoning across federal and state
Citations checked against current procedural posture
Counter-authority surfaced before it surfaces in court

Westlake v. Pearson — 04:21 EST

Controlling — 2nd Cir.

Counter-authority

II. DRAFTING

Drafts in your firm's voice. Every time.

Trained on your precedent files, style memos and partner edits. Mike returns a clean draft a senior associate would sign — not a generic template.

Memos, motions, briefs and client correspondence
Tone calibrated per partner, per practice group
Tracked changes, redlines, and version lineage

Motion to Dismiss — Draft 03

Partner edit — K. Reyes

III. DISCOVERY

Ten million documents. One afternoon.

Privilege review, hot-doc surfacing, deposition prep — Mike works the document set the way a lit team does, with privilege calls reviewable before they're produced.

Privilege calls with reviewable rationale
Hot documents promoted, not just clustered
Deposition outlines drawn from the record

Production set — 12,408,221 docs

Hot — Privilege likely

Hot — Custodian: Donovan

Cluster — Internal memos

IV. DILIGENCE

M&A diligence at the speed of the deal.

Data room ingest in minutes. Change-of-control flags, MAC clauses, off-market terms — surfaced and ranked the moment your team has access.

Contract abstraction with deviation scoring
Reps & warranties triangulated across the room
Working group lists kept current automatically

Project Atlas — Diligence Room

Change of control — 14 hits

MAC clause — off-market

Reps & warranties — reconciled

The Workspace

A quiet desk.
An open record.

Every matter, brief, custodian and clause in one workspace. Mike sits beside the work — not on top of it.

Westlake v. Pearson · Drafting motion to dismiss

Counter-authority — fraud-on-the-market doctrine

Katherine Reyes · Partner

Mike, before we file — strongest counter-authority on the materiality argument we're making in Section II?

Mike

Two cases cut against the materiality framing as drafted. Halliburton II reaffirmed the rebuttable presumption — your Section II argument needs to address price impact directly, not in the alternative. Goldman Sachs (2021) further narrowed which generic statements survive a motion to dismiss in the 2nd Cir.

The Method

Four moves.
Every matter.

Mike's rhythm doesn't change between a discovery dispute and a $4B carve-out. The work scales; the method stays.

STEP I

Onboard the firm.

Mike ingests your precedent files, style memos, partner edits and matter taxonomy. Within 72 hours, drafts come back in your house voice.

72h to first draftSSO + matter ACLs

STEP II

Open a matter.

Drag in the complaint, the data room, the production set. Mike organizes the record — custodians, exhibits, citations — before your team is back from coffee.

Privilege auto-flaggedBates-aware

STEP III

Work the question.

Ask in plain English. Mike returns reasoning grounded in your record and the controlling authority — with rationale you can review, redline and cite.

Reviewable rationaleCitation-checked

STEP IV

File. Negotiate. Close.

Mike drafts the motion, redlines the SPA, briefs the deposition. You sign, you negotiate, you close. The judgment stays with counsel.
